Why is this extra‑virgin olive oil classified as NOVA 2 and what does that classification mean?

NOVA 2 indicates the product is a minimally processed food made from a single natural ingredient with no added substances; the oil is simply pressed from olives, so it lacks the extensive formulation or additives that characterize higher NOVA levels.

How does the high fat content of this oil affect a ketogenic or low‑carb diet?

The oil provides pure fat without carbohydrates or protein, making it an efficient source of calories for ketogenic or low‑carb plans, but its dense energy of about 898 kcal per 100 ml means portion control is essential to avoid excess calorie intake.

Is this olive oil suitable for vegan, vegetarian, gluten‑free and halal diets?

Yes, the oil is 100 % plant‑derived, contains no animal ingredients, gluten or common allergens, and is generally accepted as halal when produced without cross‑contamination.
