Ancient Mediterranean Medicine - Modern Health Solution
Olive Leaf Extract is derived from the leaves of the olive tree (Olea europaea), which has been cultivated for over 6,000 years in the Mediterranean region. While olive oil is celebrated for its health benefits, the leaves of the olive tree contain even higher concentrations of powerful bioactive compounds, particularly oleuropein - the primary polyphenol responsible for olive leaf's remarkable health properties. Traditionally used for centuries to support immune function, cardiovascular health, and overall vitality, olive leaf extract is now backed by modern scientific research validating its therapeutic benefits.
Premium Quality Standardized Extract
Standardized Olive Leaf Extract (Olea europaea) - Standardized to Oleuropein
Our olive leaf extract is standardized to ensure consistent levels of oleuropein, the key active compound responsible for the extract's health benefits. Standardization guarantees that each capsule delivers the same therapeutic potency, unlike non-standardized products that can vary widely in effectiveness. Our extract is plant-based, non-GMO, and free from artificial additives, preservatives, or fillers.
The Power of Oleuropein - Nature's Protective Compound
Oleuropein is a powerful polyphenol antioxidant found in high concentrations in olive leaves. When consumed, oleuropein is converted in the body to hydroxytyrosol, an even more potent antioxidant. These compounds work synergistically to provide immune support, protect cells from oxidative damage, support cardiovascular function, exhibit antimicrobial and antiviral properties, and promote overall health and longevity. The Mediterranean diet's health benefits are partly attributed to olive polyphenols like oleuropein.
Scientifically-Supported Health Benefits of Olive Leaf Extract
- Powerful Immune System Support: Olive leaf extract has been shown to support immune system function through multiple mechanisms. It enhances the activity of immune cells, supports the body's natural defense against pathogens, helps maintain healthy immune response, and provides year-round immune resilience. It's particularly valuable during seasonal immune challenges like cold and flu season.
- Exceptional Antioxidant Protection: Olive leaf extract provides powerful antioxidant protection that rivals or exceeds many well-known antioxidants. The oleuropein and hydroxytyrosol combat free radicals throughout the body, reduce oxidative stress and cellular damage, protect DNA, proteins, and lipids from oxidation, slow aging processes at the cellular level, and support overall cellular health and longevity.
- Supports Cardiovascular Health & Healthy Blood Pressure: Clinical research demonstrates that olive leaf extract supports cardiovascular wellness in multiple ways. It helps maintain healthy blood pressure levels already within normal range, supports arterial flexibility and endothelial function, promotes healthy circulation, reduces oxidative stress on the cardiovascular system, and supports overall heart health. Studies show significant blood pressure reductions comparable to some pharmaceutical interventions.
- Assists in Maintaining Healthy Cholesterol Levels: Olive leaf extract has been shown to support healthy lipid profiles by helping reduce LDL (bad cholesterol) oxidation, supporting healthy total cholesterol levels, promoting favorable HDL/LDL ratios, reducing triglycerides, and protecting against atherosclerosis (arterial plaque buildup).
- Antimicrobial & Antiviral Defenses: Olive leaf extract exhibits broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity against bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. Research shows it can inhibit viral replication, disrupt bacterial cell membranes, support the body's defense against infections, and provide natural antimicrobial protection. It has been studied for effectiveness against various pathogens including cold and flu viruses, herpes viruses, and bacterial infections.
- May Assist with Blood Sugar Balance: Emerging research suggests olive leaf extract may help support healthy blood sugar metabolism by improving insulin sensitivity, supporting healthy glucose metabolism, helping maintain blood sugar levels already within normal range, and potentially reducing diabetes risk factors. Those with diabetes should use under medical supervision.
- Anti-Inflammatory Support: The polyphenols in olive leaf extract provide anti-inflammatory benefits throughout the body, helping reduce chronic inflammation, support joint comfort, decrease inflammatory markers, and promote overall wellness.
- Supports General Wellness & Vitality: Beyond specific health benefits, olive leaf extract supports overall vitality, energy levels, healthy aging, cellular health and longevity, and comprehensive wellness from the inside out.
