Educational Series: Boosting Your Antivirals
Session #1 of 4: Is there such thing as an Anti Drink?
There are some powerful natural components that work to protect and bolster your body. Let’s talk about some of them.
Over the next 4 segments we wish to educate on one ‘Anti-Drink’:
Antioxidant, Antimicrobial, Antibacterial, Anti-inflammatory and Antiviral.
We’ll begin with ONE nutrient…while it is powerful all by itself, it does an even bigger boost when it’s combined with MORE nutrients that we’ll share as we go through the series.
Today: FRESH OLIVE LEAF
Long used in traditional medicine, olive leaf extract comes from the leaves of the olive tree (Olea europaea) and has a variety of health benefits. The research shows oleuropein, the main component in olive leaf extract, has antioxidant, antibacterial, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and immune-stimulating properties*.
Historically, olive leaf extract has been used for the prevention or treatment of inflammation, infections and diseases. Specifically, here we’re looking at how it helps support our immune system.
Health Benefits
Although there is currently a lack of clinical trials testing the health effects of olive leaf extract, some preliminary studies have given support to some of the benefits listed above. Here’s a look at some key findings from the available research:
Viruses
Olive leaf extract has antiviral properties and is used in holistic medicine to treat certain viruses. In laboratory testing, olive leaf extract was shown to help mononucleosis, and rotavirus, and it may also be useful against influenza and HIV*.
