Did you know that how you prepare your food can completely destroy its health benefits? đŸ€ŻđŸ‘‡
We always hear about eating foods rich in polyphenols... those powerful, plant-based antioxidants that fight inflammation, protect your heart, and keep your cells youthful. But not all polyphenol-rich foods are created equal, and a few wrong moves in the kitchen can wash those benefits right down the drain.
Swipe through our guide to see exactly where your favorite foods rank and how to unlock their maximum potential:

🔮 Red Onions (Low Count): Don’t over-peel! The highest concentration of polyphenols lives in those paper-thin, outer colored layers. Eat them raw or lightly sautĂ©ed. Boiling them literally leaks the nutrients right out into the water.
đŸ” Green Tea (Low Count): Be careful with the kettle! Boiling water can scorch the delicate leaves and destroy catechins (a vital type of polyphenol). Add a squeeze of lemon juice. The vitamin C significantly stabilizes polyphenols in your gut, improving your body’s absorption.
🍇 Berries (Medium Count): Eat them fresh or freeze-dried. Skip baking them into pies if you’re looking for a health boost-prolonged oven heat degrades the antioxidants. Thankfully, freezing actually preserves them perfectly!
đŸ«’ Ancient Roots EVOO (High Count): When it comes to a polyphenol powerhouse, true Extra Virgin Olive Oil reigns supreme. It contains a uniquely potent compound called Oleocanthal, which reduces inflammation by mimicking the exact same pathways as Ibuprofen!

But here is the golden rule for your high-polyphenol olive oil: Heat destroys the delicate format of these healing compounds.

To get the full health-boosting, anti-inflammatory benefits of our early-harvest oil, you want to consume it raw.

Before it was a kitchen staple, olive oil was the ultimate medicine for skin, hair, and longevity. Homer called it “liquid gold,” and for thousands of years, it was the crown jewel of the ancient world’s medicine cabinet. đŸș
Hippocrates prescribed it for over 60 therapeutic uses, from skin conditions to muscle trauma, Roman Gladiators slathered it on to protect their skin and heal wounds post-battle, Egyptian Pharaohs used it in antibacterial salves and took it to their graves as a sacred protector.
To our ancient ancestors, olive oil became more than just a food... transformed into a powerful protector against inflammation and aging. 🌿

And now... Aeons has recaptured that ancient medicinal secret, backed by our modern understanding of its healing properties. High-phenolic extra virgin olive oil like Ancient Roots is packed with antioxidants and oleocanthal... a natural compound that acts just like ibuprofen.
Here is how to bring this ancient ritual into your daily routine:
Take one tbsp on an empty stomach to reduce cellular inflammation and prime your digestion.Pour it over your salad to unlock and absorb fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, and K).
Instead of chasing fads and synthetic trends, remember the timeless wisdom that sustained humanity for millennia.

Behind the scenes with Sarah
 and yes, the prop got eaten. đŸ«’

That sourdough was meant to just be pretty and used for a shot or two
 but we couldn’t resist having just a few more bites off-screen!

When you dip it in a high-polyphenol extra virgin olive oil, like Ancient Roots (full of that peppery, fresh, green taste), it stops being a prop and starts being a mid-afternoon snack.

But there’s a nutritional & scientific reason Sarah looked so steady and energised between takes. The polyphenols in Ancient Roots carry natural anti-inflammatory properties that help the body manage energy more evenly through the day. So no matter what you’re tackling throughout the day, there’s no mid-afternoon dip. No reaching for another coffee to push through. No major crash or energy slump.

Instead, you get a healthy, slower & cleaner kind of fuel... the same one Mediterranean women have been spooning, drizzling, and shotting straight from the bottle for generations.

If you’re in your 40s, 50s, or beyond have become a challenge, and you’re feeling wiped by 3pm, the solution start here.

There’s a myth that can no longer be ignored. The myth that somewhere around 51, your body would hand you a retirement notice, and desire and s*x drive just... disappears.
But here’s what nobody says out loud:
Menopause does change your hormones... but it does not delete your s*x drive.
Estrogen can drop. (Testosterone drops too... yes, women have testosterone, and it’s the bigger driver of libido than most doctors mention). Blood flow shifts. Tissues thin. Sleep gets shredded. Stress hormones climb.
Stack all that together and of course things feel different. But different does NOT mean it’s all over.
Women in their 60s and 70s report active, satisfying s*x lives all the time. So desire doesn’t carry an expiration date stamped at 50.
What gets in the way is mechanical, and most of it is addressable:
Vaginal dryness (lubrication, local estrogen, hyaluronic acid) 2. Low testosterone (testing, replacement where appropriate) 3. Pelvic floor changes (PT works, even decades in) 4. Sleep deprivation (untreated sleep apnea is a libido killer) 5. Stress and cortisol 4. Relationship driftNone of these are flaws or unavoidable problems. None of them mean you’re broken. They mean you’re a human in a body that changes (same as every other decade of your life!)
The story that menopause ends your s*xuality was written by people who weren’t paying attention.

More energy and motivation is created by a water-tight, feel-good schedule that works for you. 💚
The people you know who seem to have endless drive at 50, 60, 70 built a schedule and let it carry them to success - weight loss, all-day energy, and mood balance.
Motivation can run out by 10am - but creating consistent habits will help fix that. Here’s how:

When the same things happen at the same time every day, your body stops fighting you. Cortisol drops. Sleep deepens. Hunger sorts itself out. You stop spending willpower on whether to eat, when to train, what time to shut your laptop.

That’s where energy comes from. The same things, done in the same order, until your body trusts the pattern.

For Dr Sarah Brewer, two natural, delicious, anchors do most of the work.
In the morning: a mug of slow-simmered bone broth. Three types of real, hydrolysed collagen, slow simmered in broth, with 19 amino acids - so you feel energised and ready for the day when you wake up. And designed to stop you snacking throughout the day.

At Lunch: a tablespoon of volcanic soils Ancient Roots olive oil. Real Extra Virgin Olive oil, high in polyphenols, harvested from nutrient-dense soils. The oleocanthal in it works on the same inflammation pathways as ibuprofen but without wrecking your gut. It feeds the mitochondria... the part of every cell that actually makes energy. It also helps blood flow, skin, and hair - so you feel your best self at a time when most are already starting to feel exhausted.

Scheduling your day with these two makes every day feel a little easier. Afternoons stop crashing. The 3pm slump that makes every task a chore ... gone!

Do it for 30 days and watch what happens to your energy... just tap the link in our bio to give it a try.

Most people think of heart health diets as just cutting food out. Less salt. Less fat. And that’s it.
But the real protective work happens when you add things in. Specifically: polyphenols and fibre.
Polyphenols are the plant compounds that give olives their bitterness, found in premium Olive Oil bottles. They calm the low-grade inflammation that damages artery walls for decades before anyone notices. They help blood vessels stay flexible. And they feed the gut bacteria that produce short-chain fatty acids - the compounds your body uses to regulate immune response and metabolism.
Fibre does a different job, but is still just as useful. The soluble kind, the type you get heavily from barley, oats, beans, apples, forms a gel in your gut that binds to cholesterol and pulls it out before your body can reabsorb it. Farro brings a different profile: polyphenols, magnesium, lignans, and a slow-release carbohydrate structure that doesn’t spike blood sugar.
Look at the populations who live longest: Sardinia, Ikaria, Okinawa, Nicoya, and you find the same pattern. Meals built around whole grains, legumes, olive oil, herbs, vegetables. Not supplements or protein shakes. Just food, eaten consistently, for a lifetime.
Which is why this week’s recipe is an ancient grain risotto with farro. Slow-cooked in broth, finished with Ancient Roots, formed from the most nutrient-filled and bioavailable soil possible: Volcanic soil. The same comfort as a traditional risotto, but with more fibre. More polyphenols. A much friendlier glycemic load than white rice.
Save this post to keep the recipe for yourself, and it can soon be a more healthy weeknight staple worth keeping in rotation.

Maqui berry (Aristotelia chilensis) is a small dark purple fruit native to the temperate rainforests of southern Chile and Argentina. Among the foods studied for eye health, it has drawn research attention for one specific reason: it contains the highest known concentration of delphinidins of any plant source!

Delphinidins are a subgroup of anthocyanins, the pigment compounds that give berries their deep colour. Unlike the broader anthocyanin family found in blueberries or blackcurrants, delphinidins appear to act on the lacrimal gland, which is responsible for producing the watery layer of the tear film.

In a Japanese trial published in Panminerva Medica, participants taking 60mg of Maqui Berry extract daily for 30 to 60 days showed measurable improvements in tear fluid production and reductions in self-reported dry eye symptoms compared to placebo. A separate study examined its effect on eye strain in adults with prolonged screen exposure and found similar benefits.

Our maqui berry grows in the pristine, untouched forests of Patagonia in South America. Here the indigenous Mapuche Indians have revered this super berry for centuries, recognising its profound healing properties. Our maqui berry is grown traditionally without chemicals or fertilisers, and gently harvested by hand.

Maqui Berries, along with a powerful blend of natural vitamins and botanicals, is what builds Andean Light: our soothing eye health supplement designed for vision support and comfort. To learn more, comment ‘MAQUI’ and we’ll send you more studies and information about our crafted berries and Andean Light’s eye-protection formula.

The healthiest part of olive oil isn’t the fat. It’s the polyphenols.
These are the tiny plant compounds that built the Mediterranean diet’s entire reputation as the ... but most people have never even heard of it!
There are two types that do almost all the work:

→ Hydroxytyrosol: one of the most powerful antioxidants ever measured in food. The EU has officially approved the claim that it protects blood lipids from oxidative damage.
→ Oleocanthal: acts on the same enzyme pathway as ibuprofen. Same anti-inflammatory mechanism. Just slower, gentler, and built into your food.

Together, here’s what they’re actually doing in the body when you consume them at meaningful doses:
SKIN — neutralise the free radicals that break down collagen and drive photoaging. Studies show measurable improvements in elasticity and hydration within weeks.
HAIR — improve scalp microcirculation and protect the follicle from oxidative stress. The same mechanism that keeps olive trees alive for two thousand years.
HEART — prevent LDL cholesterol from oxidising (oxidised LDL is what actually forms arterial plaque — not LDL itself). Improve endothelial function. Support healthy blood pressure.
BRAIN — small enough to cross the blood-brain barrier. Linked in repeated studies to slower cognitive decline and reduced neuroinflammation.
LONGEVITY — activate the same cellular pathways triggered by fasting and exercise. Support mitochondrial function. The quiet reason centenarians in Sardinia, Ikaria, and Crete share one daily habit.
But most olive oil sold in supermarkets has almost none of this left.
By the time a cheap “extra virgin” bottle has been pressed, blended, shipped across continents, sat under fluorescent lights, and poured eight months later... the polyphenols are nearly gone.
You’re left with the fat. Not the actives.
Which is why the bottle, the harvest date, and the polyphenol count matter more than anything written on the label.
