I started using olive leaf 15+ years ago - it been used with horses for a long time. I "eat" FRESH leaf - no extract. There is all the effects of the good things as mentioned, PLUS there is a "nutrition for your body" in a way that the overall "neural" cognitive effect is . . . PEACE (within you). We would all be a better race for ingesting. Namaste.

Had brast cancer sugery and three months later was hospitalized with mercer, there had been an out break in the during the time of my sugery, I thought I missed it because it showed three months later. The lab test had to be done twice, and when the test came back, I ask about the results, and the nurse said it was a good one. When the doctor opened the wound, clear fluid came out. I had been taking 1000mg a day after sugery. The doctor had not experience that in all his years of practice.

When I first read of the benefits of Olive Leaf Extract, I went to a national vitamin seller, bought their house brand, and was amazed that it restored energy and vitality to me! Successive bottles did not, however. Now, some years later, I'm back using Olive Leaf in liquid form because of what I've heard regarding cardio health.

I have had great success with olive leaf. I suffered from many conditions , Panic attacks,Anxiety, Fibromialgia, Depression etc. I was able over time to regain my health and stop taking all other medications. Extra benefits are rarely getting cold sores now and it is unlikely for me to get a cold.I take in tablet form with Echinacea and Andrographis herb. It has given me a life back as I had got so sick I couldn't work. I would reccomend it to anyone to give it a try.

My husband took Two Olive Leaf Extract capsules and his chronic sinus problem he had been suffering for approx 5 months cleared. He was amazed and I was relieved not to suffering the side effects of a congested snorting snuffling bed partner. I believe he had a fungal infection in his nasal sinuses and possibly lungs due to his inhalation of dust/debris from under houses/ceilings( he is an electrician).

well i dont know but i always see olive trees by where i live i live in the city of arleta in california and i see them all the time when im traveling in the bus. And we used to have a tree where i was growing up so there not hard to find im sure if you ask around thell probably let you know maybe they have one in there house, but another thing you could do is look at olive trees pictures and become familiar to what they looks like and you probably know what the fruit looks like already but there usually green when there not ripe and thell turn purpuish when there ripe cruise by in the bus and spot one i always do that and it works well i hope it works for you.

I woke up this morning with symptoms of a severe sinus infection. I was blowing blood (fresh) and brown mucous and coughing up the same. The whole right side of my head hurt from the top even down into my neck. Even my teeth ached, and I could barely wear my glasses, my face and head hurt so badly. I made a trip to a local health food store, described my symptoms, and listened to the employee's recommendation. She highly advised me to try a homeopathic remedy containing olive leaf extract in the form of an atomizer. The relief was almost instant. I administered the remedy at two-hour intervals all day today and have had almost no recurring pain.

Had gallbladder surgery and liver issues. Was very bad and had 0 GB function. After surgery I could not eat as you get severe stomach cramps. Tried everything. I had Olive leaf already in the house as I used it for shingles in the past. After 1 week of use I can now eat without pain. Was on no meds or other herbs-vitamins. It is working and I hope to get back some of the 70 pounds I lost from being ill for months.

We use Olive Leaf daily, we have olive trees growing in our front yard and it works wonders. However we don't recommend using the extracts because they have been processed with some pretty nasty chemicals. Either consume the whole olive leaf in a powder form(either put the powder in a smoothie or get them the olive leaf in capsules) or use an Olive Leaf Tea. The more natural your olive leaf, the more your body can use it!

After watching a PBS program called Under our Skin,Health care nightmare. I was not only shocked over the wool being pulled (once again) over our eyes in America, I was frighten to see that I have had and still do many of the symptoms of Lyme disease, which is progressively getting worse. Knowing that where I live I would hold no chance on getting help with the Medical Profession, and being somewhat of a herbalist I intend to take the God given route and make me up a tincture of Olive leaf, Thyme, Oregano and any and all other antibacterial herbs and take them for the rest of my life.

as we reach middle age, using olive leaf extract as part of one's daily supplement routine makes a lot of sense - various kinds of stress can leave folks over 40 more susceptible to attacks by stealth pathogens - in other words, a person doesn't even have to be exposed to germs from another person, because the infectious organisms within their own body can reactivate and flare up during stressful periods - and they may not even cause full-blown illness but still cause enough inflammation to keep the body feeling worn out, affecting the thyroid, adrenals, etc...so olive leaf is a great natural weapon to wipe out these stealth pathogens which are often the root cause of so many other states of disease - i make sure i take my ole every day

I've been taking olive leaf extract pills (four a day) for the past seven months after being diagnosed with a very stubborn case of Ramsay-Hunt Syndrome, a type of Shingles. A few days ago, I stopped taking it because I've been doing so well and in just three days some of my symptoms started to come back. It is definitely something that has helped me and continues to do so when prescription anti-viral meds couldn't, and now I know that it's not just a coincidence. I'll continue taking it, along with using a topical tincture and drinking olive leaf tea from time to time.

This is my favorite "cure all" with it's only negative side effect it's strong, bitter taste. Though this article warns studies with unborn and young babies have not been conducted, I can assure pregnant and new moms it's completely safe for your baby and with breastfeeding. In fact, I've noticed positive results with my son while I've been taking OLE or olive leaf tea. He normally gets agitated and fussy when I am ill and the OLE via breastfeeding seems to soothe, calm and help him to be a happier more peaceful baby!
