Olive leaf extract is the natural aid for lowering cholesterol

Anyone could easily list the many properties of Olive oil in the diet and beyond. Those of Olive leaf extract, on the other hand, are benefits waiting to be discovered. A natural remedy used since ancient times, exploited for its positive effects on health.

One of the most common plants in the Mediterranean basin, the Olive tree has always been a symbolic plant for Italy, the protagonist of Mediterranean diet recipes and widespread in over 500 varieties. However, it is not only the fruits of the Olive tree that are used: the infusion of Olive tree leaves, for example, is an ancient remedy used to lower fever.

Confirming its numerous beneficial properties is research by the University of Pisa, the results of which – published in the journal Nutrients – have shown that olive leaves, often nothing more than a waste product of the much better known oil production, have very important nutraceutical properties, which are also useful for preventing many chronic diseases.

Olive leaf extract: why is it good for you?

Olive tree leaves are rich in polyphenols such as oleuropein, which is rich in antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial and antiviral properties. As a result, it is possible to obtain an extract rich in bioactive polyphenols, which are very useful in the field of food supplements and more. Olive leaves are also rich in useful substances such as:

✅  Tyrosol, with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

✅  Oleanolic acid, with immuno-modulatory and anti-inflammatory action.

✅  Elenolic acid, antioxidant, antibacterial and antiviral.

✅  Rutin, better known as vitamin P, counters oxidative stress.

✅  Hydroxytyrosol, with antioxidant benefits.

The benefits of Olive leaves

Choosing a supplement with Olive leaf extract means protecting your heart. The presence of oleuropein helps regulate blood pressure, keep blood fats under control and fight atherosclerosis. Factors that put stress on the heart which, if forced to pump more blood to distribute it throughout the body, can be at risk.

Olive leaf extract also has diuretic properties that help regulate blood pressure and peripheral vasodilation of the veins. The polyphenols contained in Olive tree leaves also prove very useful in keeping sugars under control and, therefore, help to keep weight stable and, indeed, to get rid of abdominal fat related to high blood sugar.

Supplements based on Olive leaf extracts, moreover, are very useful in fighting oxidative stress and supporting the immune system thanks to their antibacterial and antiviral properties, which are also useful in fighting seasonal illnesses.

Also not to be underestimated is the topical use of Olive leaf extract, which can be used on the skin and scalp as protection against free radicals and as a nourishing ingredient for moisturising creams and serums. On the most sensitive skin, finally, Olive leaves can be useful against redness and irritation, even caused by cold and sunlight.
