What is Olive Leaf Extract Good For Really?

extraction tubes wholesale - What is olive leaf extract good for, anyway? You see it listed as an ingredient in dietary supplements and cosmetics. But, what are the benefits? What do the scientists have to say? In the US, supplement manufacturers are careful about the claims that they make, but on the internet, you will see the extracts promoted for anti-aging benefits, stimulation of the immune system and sometimes as natural antibiotics. Four separate studies have proven that, when taken orally, the extracts may be beneficial for people with hypertension (high blood pressure). Tests conducted using laboratory test tubes, Petri dishes and cell lines have shown that compounds within the leaves have antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral activity. Like many other compounds found in plants, researchers have seen natural anti-inflammatory activity and antioxidant activity. In one study, a liquid made from the leaves was shown to have four times the antioxidant activity of vitamin C and twice that of green tea. When it comes to the skin's health and appearance, natural anti-inflammatories may be beneficial for eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis and acne. Antioxidants help to modulate the effect of UV rays from the sun and may delay the aging effects caused by free radical damage. So, what is olive leaf extract good for? Wow, it looks like it could be good for a lot of things. But, are there any drawbacks? If taken orally by a person that has low blood pressure or low blood sugar levels, high doses could be life threatening. It is best to consult with a doctor of naturopathic medicine, before considering the single-ingredient supplements. The dosage could be dangerously high. The amount found in the better multi-nutritional supplements is safe, when taken as directed.
