New Roots Olive Leaf Extract 500mg 60 Veggie Caps
- Olive Leaf Extract 500mg An antioxidant for the maintenance of good health
- This Olive Leaf Extract, in liquid and in capsules, is 100% natural and simply amazing
- Obtained from the leaves of the olive tree (Olea europaea), they contain oleuropein, which is the main active principal of the olive tree
- The use of the extract of the tree dates to the early 1800s, when it was used as an effective Health-Wellness-Car-e for malarial infections
- According to the 1854 Pharmaceutical Journal of Provincial Transactions, the doctors stated that the properties of the olive tree deserved much more extensive investigation for its medicinal qualities
- In the early 1900s, a bitter compound called “oleuropein” was identified in the leaves and other parts of the olive tree; this compound was determined to be part of the olive tree’s powerful disease-resistant structure
- Since then, several animal and in vitro studies revealed its large anti-infectious properties: Bactericide with its elenolic acid, and viricide with its calcium eleonate
- In 1962, an Italian researcher discovered that oleuropein can lower blood pressure in animals; other European research determined this compound to have strong antioxidant capabilities as well
- Biochemists have determined that the extract has multiple natural iridoids, flavonoids, and esters, and that the synergy of these working together is the reason for the wide-spectrum effect
- Some people experience what is known as Herxheimer’s reaction; this is a detoxification reaction, and not a counteraction to the product
- If any of these symptoms should occur—greater fatigue, diarrhea, headaches, muscle/joint aches, or flu-like symptoms—temporarily discontinue taking Olive Leaf Extract or cut back on the amount taken until the body can eliminate the toxic waste
- Most individuals experience no such effect
- Olive Leaf Extract has been used clinically in its present form for years
- Living up to its promising background, it has demonstrated considerable therapeutic action against many common and chronic conditions
