Olive Leaf

Many people who live stressful lives or who may be particularly
susceptible to colds and viruses may benefit from long-term use
of olive leaf as a preventive agent. Some patients have expressed
other unexpected benefits of olive leaf, including improved psoriasis,
normalisation of heart beat irregularities, diminished cravings, less
pain from hemorrhoids, toothaches and chronically achy joints.

Research suggests that olive leaf may be a true anti-viral
compound because it appears to selectively block an entire
virus-specific system in the infected host. This appears to
offer healing effects not addressed by pharmaceutical antibiotics.
Olive leaf’s broad killing power includes an ability to interfere with
critical amino acid production for viruses; an ability to contain viral
infection and/or spread by inactivating viruses by preventing virus
shredding, budding or assembly at the cell membrane; the ability
to directly penetrate infected cells and stop viral replication.

As an antioxidant, Olive leaf extract protects those blood vessels
from damage, and has been shown to be effective in protecting
the heart from coronary occlusion. When taken over an extended
period of time, it is believed to reverse arteriosclerosis. Olive
leaves are astringent and antiseptic. Both the leaves and the
bark have valuable febrifugal qualities.
