"We have worked for over a decade to develop healthy olive oil products" said Dr. Shaul Eger, founder and CEO of Dr. Eger. "Studies have demonstrated that people in Mediterranean countries are often healthier due to their high olive oil consumption. Our Olive Oil Spreads are a tasty way to promote the consumption of olive oil in the US and Europe."
Dr. Eger Spreads are manufactured using a patented oil solidification process, which retains their original properties of all of the ingredients. The spreads are all natural solidified oils:

- Trans fatty acids free
- With no hydrogenation

The olive oil spreads are based on an innovative, patented technology developed by Dr. Eger with collaboration with Professor Ishak Neeman, an Associate Professor at the Department of Food Engineering and Biotechnology at the Technion Institue of Technology in Haifa, Israel. Their joint research led to the development of a unique technology for solidification of oils, which is water free, preservatives free, trans fatty acids free. It enables stable solidification of olive oil at room temperature and most important - preserves the natural composition and characteristics of the fatty acids and the micro ingredients of the oil.
