"In particolare è stata dimostrata l'azione di inibizione dell'ossidazione delle LDL (implicate nella patogenesi dell'aterosclerosi) da parte dell'idrossitirosolo, polifenolo lipofilo e buon indicatore dei fenoli totali presenti nell'olio d'oliva, e dell'OLEOEUROPEINA.
Hydroxytyrosol and OLEOEUROPEINA are phenolic compounds present in olive oil that have an antioxidative action. I can't find the correct English for the one in caps. Any help welcome.

Oleoeuropeina

". The most abundant active principle produced by the olive leaves is a biophenolic structure, known with the name Oleoeuropeina."

disagree Michael Farrell : If you type "oleuropein" into Google and limit your search to English language sites, you get a lot more hits than with "oleoeuropeina" or "oleoeuropeine". I'd go for "oleuropein". See: http://www.blackwellpublishing.com/isth2003/abstract.asp?id=...
