This olive leaf product is suitable for prevention, health maintenance and chronic (long-term) infections.

These products are suitable for short or long term use, mainly preventive or for chronic conditions
and the tincture is suitable for children or others not wishing to consume alcohol.
Tincture: A dose of 42 drops (1,5ml) is produced from 1500mg of dry olive leaf and is guaranteed to contain
at least 15mg of oleuropein.
The liquid also contains vegetable glycerine, purified water and gum arabic.
The manufacturer states that the leaves and alcohol used in the extraction are organic, and constituents
resulting in the extract are balanced in the same proportions as found in the leaf, which may have
unexpected benefits over other products of similar concentration.
The extract is produced by "bio-chelation" which is a low alcohol cold proprietary process, the alcohol then
being mostly replaced with glycerine.
This product is suitable for prevention, short term use and acute infections in larger doses. It is a balanced product relying on the synergy of the constituents rather than a hefty dose of Oleuropein alone.
Other constituents; Vegetable cellulose, vegetable magnesium stearate, silica, natural beta-carotene and L-ascorbic acid.
Quantities of beta carotene and ascorbic acid are not given, but ascorbic acid works well with olive leaf.
The product label notes not for persons under 18 years of age. Suitable for vegetarians/vegans.To purchase, or for more information, click on the product image
