Olive Leaf Supplement<\/span> <\/strong>is said to be one of the few substances candida is not immune to. Here is an article from NyrNatural News www.nyrnaturalnews.com\/article\/qa-what-is-olive-leaf-good-for<\/a><\/p>\n

\"olive<\/p>\n

Olive leaf from the olive tree (Olea europaea<\/em>) is native to the Mediterranean and has been known for its medicinal properties since ancient times. It is the first botanical noted in the Bible, where it is described in Ezekiel 47:12, \u201cThe fruit thereof shall be for meat, and the leaf thereof for medicine\u201d \u2013 thus its nickname \u201cTree of Life.\u201d<\/p>\n

Olive leaf was first used medicinally in Ancient Egypt where it was a symbol of heavenly power and was part of the formula used to mummify pharaohs. Its first mention in the Western medicinal tradition was in the 1800s in England when a physician reported that a bitter substance from olive leaf tea could heal malaria and associated fevers.<\/p>\n

Olive leaf has incredibly potent antioxidant properties, helping to protect the cells of the body. In fact in a study of 55 herbs, it was shown to have\u00a0the highest radical-scavenging activity of all the herbs studied<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 more than twice that of\u00a0Camellia sinensis<\/em>\u00a0(green tea) and\u00a0Silybum marianum<\/em>\u00a0(milk thistle). It also has an\u00a0anti-inflammatory action<\/a>\u00a0that researchers suggest may make it a helpful remedy for a whole host of diseases in which inflammation plays a part, including arthritis.<\/p>\n

It also supports the cardiovascular system, helping to normalise blood pressure, and also has a strong antimicrobial effect against viruses, bacteria, yeast, and parasites. It may also have some use in treating diabetes.<\/p>\n

Good for the heart<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

In 1960 an Italian researcher discovered that a phytochemical found in olive leaf, oleuropein, dilated blood vessels so that blood could flow more easily throughout the system. This had the effect of helping to lower blood pressure.<\/p>\n

Other European researchers have validated the claim and found that olive leaf\u00a0works in a way similar to conventional calcium channel blockers<\/a>, helping\u00a0 it\u00a0increases blood flow in the coronary arteries<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As an antioxidant, olive leaf extract protects blood vessels from damage and has been shown to be effective in\u00a0preventing atherosclerosis<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Antibacterial and more<\/strong><\/p>\n

Olive leaf has undergone research into its potent antiviral, antibacterial, antiprotozoan and antifungal properties. Early research by a Dutch researcher identified that a phytochemical called \u2018elenolic acid\u2019 inhibited the growth of viruses, bacteria, fungi and parasites. By the late 1960s, research by scientists at Upjohn, a major American pharmaceutical company, showed that elenolic acid also inhibited the growth of viruses. In fact, it stopped every virus that it was tested against.<\/p>\n

More recent studies show this potent effect may be attributed to a constituent calledcalcium elenolate<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 a salt of elenoic acid.<\/p>\n

Olive leaf\u2019s broad killing power includes an ability to interfere with amino acid production for viruses; an ability to stop viral infection & spread\u00a0\u2013 it inactivates viruses by preventing virus\u2019 shredding, budding or assembly at the cell membrane; and the ability to penetrate infected cells.<\/p>\n

Anecdotal evidence suggests that taken early on when you have a cold or flu, olive leaf extract can prevent or shorten the duration of the infection. It can also be gargled to help combat a sore throat. Because of its antiviral action against the herpes simplex virus it can\u00a0 also help heal cold sores. It may also be helpful with fungal infections such as candida, thrush and athletes foot. More recent evidence suggests it can help\u00a0improve insulin sensitivity in diabetics<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The only caution is you should not use olive leaf if\u00a0you are pregnant or breast feeding, or if you have low blood pressure or are taking medication.<\/p>\n

How to take it<\/strong><\/p>\n

Olive leaf has a unique, slightly bitter taste. It comes in a variety of forms including dried leaves, powders, teas and tinctures. Here\u2019s how to take it:<\/p>\n
