Adding olive leaf extract to your world is yet anther way to heal your health, not to mention your life, from the inside.
What is Olive Leaf Extract?
Olive leaf extract is a substance that can best be described as a natural antibiotic. Consuming a dose of olive leaf extract on a daily basis can benefit you in many ways. Olive leaf extract has anti-bacterial properties, as well as anti-fungal and anti-viral properties. A dosage of olive leaf extract will destroy bad bacteria, while at the same time, leaving the good bacteria intact.
The top ingredient in olive leaf extract that makes it so healthy is a bitter phytochemical compound by the name of oleuropein. Oleuropein is turned into olive leaf extract when it is taken from the Manzanillo and Mission olive trees.
A daily dosage of olive leaf extract can be helpful for adult males and females, as well as teenagers. It can also safely be given to youngsters who are 12 years of age and younger in a reduced dosage. Discuss this with your doctor before you go ahead and give it to your child.
The Many Benefits of Olive Leaf Extract
Olive leaf extract can do so many things to improve your health. It can fight off nasty viruses and bacteria that can lead to infections and diseases; it can boost your energy levels and it can give your skin an all over healthy glow! It is also very good for the heart. In fact the two could become best friends! Whether it is part of a supplement that contains vitamins and minerals or whether it stands alone, olive leaf extract can lower your blood pressure, lower your cholesterol level and can prevent hypertension.
Olive leaf extract is also capable of keeping many respiratory problems away from your body, including the common cold, the flu, sore throats, bronchitis and pneumonia. It is also helpful for the digestive process and can prevent or reduce intestinal muscle spasms.
In particular, olive leaf extract can lend the body a helping hand in four areas. These include:
• Functioning of the Immune System– Helps to prevent the onset of diseases and helps the immune system to not become overwrought and exhausted.
• Pathogen Control– Fights the undesired attack of bacteria, fungi, viruses, retroviruses and parasites (as previously mentioned).
• Energy Assistance– Provides a boost to energy levels in a very natural manner. There are no manmade chemicals involved!
• Promotion of a Strong and Healthy Heart– Supports and encourages the cardiovascular system in doing what it is meant to do, which is to send blood to every area of the body in an efficient manner.
Research studies have even found a link between consuming olive leaf extract on a regular basis and warding off diseases such as herpes and shingles. Another promising potential side to olive leaf extract is that research studies point to a link between olive leaf extract and a lessening in strength of the HIV virus.
While olive oil that you use in recipes is good for you, olive leaf extract is even better! Look for olive leaf extract at health food stores or vitamin stores or look for it in your local drug store or grocery store in the health section. Taking better care of yourself is closer than you think!
