Immune system support: olive leaf extract is increasingly being recognised as a natural alternative to antibiotics and beneficial for viral and fungal infections. It is a non-toxic way to strengthen the immune system. Recently scientific research has shown it has powerful healing properties which can fight bacteria viruses, including herpes and candida albicans, that cause infection and disease. It has been shown to have anti-hiv effects and has been reported to increase natural killer cells. A natural, non-toxic, immune system builder. It has been found to be safe, highly effective food supplement with a potent and proven anti-microbial action. Scientific research on olive leaf extract: recently scientific research has shown that the active ingredient in olive leaf extract, oleuropein, has powerful healing properties and can fight bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites that cause infection and disease. Olive leaf extract has been used as a natural antibiotic for thousands of years but after the active components were isolated in 1969 an upsurge of research has resulted in dramatic discoveries. Research at the upjohn company, published by the american society for microbiology, found that the active components, elenol acid and calcium elenolate, inhibited the growth of every virus, bacteria, fungi and protozoa they were tested against. (They tested over 30 micro-organisms!). Dr renis proved that oleuropein could kill herpes virus. In 1992 french biologists found that all of the herpes viruses were inhibited or killed by extracts from olive leaf. They included 28 references to the anti-viral action of oleuropein in their report. The anti-viral activity of olive leaf extract is due to the action of oleuropein on the protein coat of the virus. It is thought to inactivate bacteria by dissolving the outer lining of the microbe. Research conducted in hungary has demonstrated such positive results against a range of infections that olive leaf extract has become an official anti-infectious disease remedy. Olive leaf extract acts to prevent the onset of colds, flu, and a range of viruses; yeast, fungal and mould problems; bacterial infections; and parasites. Olive leaf extract’s anti-viral activity has resulted in it gaining attention from practitioners working with people suffering from chronic fatigue. Dr martin, head of molecular immunopatholgy at the university of southern california medical centre has discovered unusual retroviruses in a high percentage of patients with chronic fatigue. Chronic fatigue syndrome (cfs) is associated with immune dysfunction, which allows infection with a variety of opportunistic micro-organisms. Research into the efficacy of using olive leaf extract for chronic fatigue syndrome patients is continuing and hopeful as recognition of olive leaf extract’s anti-microbal action continues to grow. As an increasing number of positive results using olive leaf extract are reported excitement is growing about its application in may infectious conditions and with people with compromised immune systems. Research indicates the use of olive leaf extract could be useful in conditions such as chronic or recurrent viral or bacterial infections (eg colds, flue, sore throat, etc): candida, tinea and other yeast and fungal problems and parasitic infestation. It can be helpful in conditions of gut dysbiosis (leaky gut). Interest in the use of olive leaf extract for people with compromised immune systems is also high. It has been shown to reduce cholesterol, benefit the heart and arteries due to its high antioxidant qualities, and build the immune system by stimulating phagocyte production. Research scientists have discovered that no toxic or other adverse side effects are evident, even in high doses. Olive leaf extract is a natural, non-toxic immune system builder. It is a safe, highly effective food supplement with potent and proven anti-microbal action. Recommended use: 1/2 to 1 teaspoon a day.
