Olive leaf extract
What it is
Helps lower blood pressure through its active compound oleuropein. A 2024 meta-analysis of 12 trials found it significantly reduces blood pressure by approximately 5–6 mmHg systolic. Oleuropein also has confirmed antiviral and anti-inflammatory activity in lab studies. If you are already on blood pressure medication, the combined effect may drop pressure too low — monitor closely.
Dose
500–1,000 mg/day standardised extract (15–20% oleuropein); monitor blood pressure if on antihypertensives
Time of day & tips
Take with food at any time of day. If on blood pressure medication, monitor BP closely — effects are additive and may cause dizziness. Split into 2 doses for best results.
