More Info.
Consistent with its traditional use, olive leaf extracts have been shown to support microbial balance without suppressing immune system function. A well-researched bioactive constituent is oleuropein, a unique phenolic glucoside (structurally classified as an iridoid). Oleuropein is metabolized by intestinal bacteria to hydroxytyrosol, a phenolic antioxidant that is hypothesized to contribute to the clinical benefits of olive oil and leaf extracts. Flavonoids, such as rutin, luteolin, and hesperidin, may also contribute to its functional profile.
- Olive leaf extract is derived from Olea europaea leaves and standardized to contain a minimum of 15% oleuropein. Typical levels range from 17-23%Â
