Background and Use
The ancient Egyptians regarded the Olive tree as a symbol of heavenly power and were the first to put the Olive leaf to practical use in the mummification of their kings. It continued to be used throughout history for many folk remedies. By the late 1960's, scientific research at a major American pharmaceutical company, conducted experiments with viruses using one of the constituents of this leaf. The majority of the research has taken place in Europe and it warrants further research. Olive leaf contains numerous antioxidant flavonoids, but the main focus of research has been on the oleuropein compounds.
Precautions
Keep out of reach of children. Discontinue if unusual symptoms occur. Do not exceed recommended dose unless under the guidance of a health care professional. Not recommended for use during pregnancy or while nursing, until further research verifies no contraindications.
Allergens
In rare cases, Olive leaf may cause flu-like symptoms, breathing difficulties, tightness in the throat or chest, or skin irritations. Discontinue use immediately if this occurs.
