How it works
Olive leaf is naturally rich in the nutrients selenium, zinc, iron,
vitamin C and betacarotene. These nutrients are important for the healthy
functioning of the immune system and are important for good health.
Olive leaf contains a broad spectrum of strong antioxidants. A number of
olive leaf's active constituents have demonstrated a high degree of
antioxidant activity. In particular the constituent oleuropein has
antioxidant activity that may contribute to a healthy heart and benefit the
immune system.
Antioxidants act as ‘free-radical scavengers’. Free radicals are common in
the body, arising through a variety of mechanisms. Research suggests that an
accumulation of free radicals can result in cellular damage.
