The olive is a small evergreen tree native to Mediterranean regions, but naturalized to climates as varied as those of Australia, California, and Texas. The well-known green to blue-black fruit of this tree yields a useful, edible oil but the natural olive leaf and olive leaf extracts from this tree are marketed as an anti-aging, immunostimulator and an antibiotic.
Olive Leaf And Weight Loss
A recent study, led by the University of Southern Queensland's Professor of Biomedical Sciences Lindsay Brown, involved feeding rats a high carbohydrate, high fat diet for eight weeks until they developed signs of metabolic syndrome, including abdominal fat, fatty liver, hypertension and impaired glucose tolerance. The rats given coffee fortified with olive leaf extract for a further eight weeks showed improved cardiovascular, liver and metabolic signs compared with rats given normal coffee.
Dr Brown said the extracts in olive leaf led to weight loss because of its anti-inflammatory properties. The role of inflammation in causing fat storage is the subject of studies around the world. Green tea, turmeric, aspirin derivatives and ibuprofen are thought to have a similar weight-loss effect.
Olive Leaf Antioxidant Benefits
Recent studies of olive leaf have revealed some amazing facts. ORAC, or better known as Oxygen Radical Absorbence Capacity, is the standard test given to any substance to measure its ability to absorb free radicals. An example of this would be Goji Berries. When measured using the ORAC scale, Goji Juice yields a rating of 1215 of the ORAC scale. This score reflects a highly potent source of antioxidants and this is one of the reason the Goji berry has become so popular lately. When olive leaves were put through the same ORAC test, the results were staggering! Olive leaf pegged the ORAC meter giving a 7608 score! Olive leaf is one of the strongest antioxidant herbs money can buy. The leaf is loaded with antioxidants such as rutin, catechin, and luteolin and considered an antioxidant super food. While used for thousands of years for medicinal use, its use for antioxidant support has not been documented much until the 21st century.
