OHIS: the first newsletter of April

Madrid / 04.04.2022

Dedicate your time to health with the latest news from the Olive Health Information System (OHIS), the portal brought to you by the medical school of the University of Navarra in collaboration with the Executive Secretariat of the IOC. We start the month with news on cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, cognition, women’s health, updates on covid-19, the Mediterranean diet, quality in diets and dietary patterns, lifestyle, and the latest findings on epigenetics, among many others.

The OHIS is a web-based project that aims to provide a regularly updated repository of all scientific reports related to the health effects of olives, olive oil and other olive products.

The OHIS works interactively to effectively collate publications and data, to give our readers access to health-related nutritional issues or relevant public health topics.
