5 amazing health secrets of olive leaf extract

How to use olive leaf extract

Although olive leaf’s effects on the body are generally positive, it’s best to check with your doctor before starting to use it, particularly in certain circumstances:

  • If you take high blood pressure medication (olive leaf lowers blood pressure)
  • If you are diabetic (olive leaf can lower blood sugar)
  • If you take a blood thinner (olive leaf can increase their effect)

Once you get the OK, here are some tips:

Olive leaf capsules are filled with either powdered olive leaves (milder), or olive leaf extract.

If you use an olive leaf tincture, look for one without alcohol.

Olive leaf tea may be a better way to begin if you have any of the above-mentioned health issues. It is relaxing, has no caffeine, and is known to ease arthritis pain. Do your best to purchase leaves or tea bags where no pesticides have been involved in its production.
