What does Olive Leaf Extract do?
Olive leaf extract (oleuropein) is a natural wide-spectrum antibiotic, anti-bacterial, anti-viral,anti-fungal compound. Unlike synthetic antibiotics, it destroys only the bad bacteria and protects the good. Medical research suggests that when Oleuropein is taken orally, it searches out and “inactivates” the bacteria. It does this by dissolving the outer lining of the infectious germs and then it penetrates the infected cells, thus inhibiting the replication of the bacteria. What exactly is Olive Leaf Extract and what can it do? The key to olive leaf extract is a bitter phytochemical compound called Oleuropein extracted from the leaves of the Mission and Manzanillo olive trees. Oleuropein is a diastercomeric indoide, which means that its molecule reflects light in both the left and right handed direction (levortatory and dextortatory). It also means that it has phyto-nutrients with therapeutic potency sensitive to excessive heat, as can be generated during an extraction process. Recogni
