Olive oil advantage
Natural preservation
Good fish, golden oil
Olive oil protects flavour and texture while adding oleic acid, vitamin E and plant polyphenols. Use the aromatic oil in dressings, on toast or over vegetables rather than letting it go to waste.
SKINCARE . COLLAGEN
You can eat skincare too!
Yes, you heard it right: one of the most effective skincare routines doesn't come from a serum, but from a tin. Diet plays a direct role in skin health, and oily fish preserves are one of the most practical allies to have it more hydrated, firm, and protected.
Including oily fish in your diet helps reduce inflammation, strengthens the skin's natural barrier, and protects cells from daily damage. It also contributes to collagen production, which translates into more hydrated, firm, and elastic skin, and also helps keep it protected and luminous. And why? Because oily fish is naturally rich in Omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA), high-quality proteins, vitamin D, vitamin E, and selenium, essential nutrients for skin health. In preserves, all these benefits are maintained. The preservation process preserves much of the fish's nutritional value, making them a practical, tasty, and authentic way to include these nutrients in your daily diet.
