See below of the reasons we are taking this product. 10 Health Benefits of Olive Leaf Extract Published on August 6, 2011 Olive leaf extract is a strong, natural antiviral and antibacterial substance that is being used more often for many different types of medical conditions. Here are ten health benefits of olive leaf extract. Immune System Support Because of the antiviral and antibacterial properties of olive leaf extract, your body will be more able to fight off illness and disease when you are using this extract on a regular basis. If you are starting to get sick, try using olive leaf extract to decrease your recovery time and the severity of symptoms. Anti-Inflammatory Olive leaf extract contains flavonoids, which have been found to have strong anti-inflammatory benefits. When you decrease inflammation in your body, you can decrease the symptoms of multiple health conditions including arthritis, heart disease, cancer, and chronic pain. Anti-Viral Olive leaf extract is a natural anti-viral agent and is being studied for possible benefits in the treatment of HIV infection and other viruses. Heart Health It has been found that olive leaf extract can decrease blood cholesterol levels and also decrease high blood pressure levels. Maintaining healthy cholesterol and blood pressure is an important element in preventing heart disease and heart attacks. Cancer Treatment and Prevention Olive leaf extract contains compounds that work to reduce free radical activity within your body, which in turn will help you to prevent cancer. The antioxidants that are found within this extract scavenge to find free radicals and they are then removed from your body. Lower levels of free radicals means that you will have lower levels of cancerous cell growth. Digestive System Support Olive leaf extract is a natural diuretic, which means that it can help you to reduce water and toxin retention in the body. Additionally, this extract improves digestion and it prevents infections and irritations in the digestive tract. Herpes and Shingles Several studies have shown that olive leaf extract inhibits or destroys all forms of the herpes virus, including herpes I and II and herpes zoster (shingles). Fights Yeast Infections Research has found that olive leaf extract is effective against Candida albicans, the fungus that causes yeast infections. Urinary Tract Infections Olive leaf extract has been found to be effective against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, one of the bacteria which causes urinary tract infections and pneumonia. This is important because Pseudomonas aeruginosa is known to have low susceptibility to antibiotics. Dental Infections Olive leaf has been found to be beneficial in fighting dental infections.

I can tell by the smell and appearance/color of the powder inside the clear capsules that this stuff is natural, fresh, and potent (and not just mixed with a bunch of other filler). It does have a sort of raw unprocessed olive oil and olive leaf aroma, when the container was first opened.

Seems to be effective so far. I take this to help fight infection and illness when sick. Also for its anti aging benefits. No after taste. Not as effective as another brand I tried that was in liquid form in capsules (this one is in powder form in capsules). However, it is still effective. Fair price.

Good quality

This supplement is favored for its anti aging properties and I use it regularly. This company has quality products so I'm comfortable I will get the benefits. The capsules are regular sized and easy to swallow.

Great product helps keep the inflation down

Bought for a friend and he said it was good. But he needs to take it everyday

Entrega en tiempo, conforme con el producto, tengo algunos 10 días tomándolo y empezando a disfrutar de sus bondades. Muy recomendable.

I have tried several brands of olive leaf extract and this one is not effective and price is 6 times more. Try Urban Platter. This is indian brand and u can get in Rs. 400 for the same quantity and is very effective.

ちょっと匂いが気になるところですが一気に飲めば苦になりません

very good!!
