Olive oil is the principal source of fats in the Mediterranean diet and it has been postulated that the components in olive oil can contribute to a lower incidence of coronary heart disease and cancers (prostate, colon, breast, and skin). The positive effects on human health can be attributed to the high level of phenolic compounds present in olive oil, the major ones being oleuropein, hydroxytyrosol and tyrosol. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of oleuropein on enzymes involved in specific pathways of metabolism of proteins, carbohydrates and lipids.
