Olea europaea
Olive leaf has been used in traditional Mediterranean medicine for centuries, with records dating back to ancient Egypt. While olive oil is the most well-known product of the olive tree, the leaves contain higher concentrations of beneficial polyphenols, particularly oleuropein. Modern research supports cardiovascular and antimicrobial benefits.
Olive leaf (Olea europaea) is a traditional Mediterranean herb with modern evidence supporting its use for cardiovascular health, particularly blood pressure reduction and metabolic support. Its primary active compounds include oleuropein, hydroxytyrosol, and elenolic acid, which contribute to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties.
Oleuropein and its metabolite hydroxytyrosol inhibit angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), leading to vasodilation and reduced blood pressure. They also enhance nitric oxide (NO) production and improve endothelial function. Additionally, elenolic acid exhibits antimicrobial activity by disrupting bacterial cell membranes and inhibiting viral replication. The polyphenols activate the Nrf2 pathway, boosting endogenous antioxidant defenses.
