Olive Leaf (Olea Europea) | 20%+ Oleuropein – Powder, 100g

One of the main constituents is Oleuropein which is a tyrosol ester of elenolic acid, and an NF-kappaB inhibitor. Botany’s Olive Leaf Extract is standardized to contain 20%+ Oleuropein.
Whilst the fruit (olive) of the olive tree is a staple used in many cuisines around the world and purported to exhibit a range of health benefits like skin clarity, heart health and supple joints, it is much less known that the leaves of the tree have been used in traditional medicine for centuries and the chemical constituents found in the olive tree are concentrated to a much higher degree in the leaves than in the fruit or the tree itself.
