Olive Leaf the new bug killer.

Natural remedies are the latest weapon against antibiotic-resistant superbugs.
Olive leaves are being harvested with renewed interest.
Scientists claim oleuropein, extracted from olive leaves, is the most potent natural antibiotic yet.
In 1977, Former podiatrist Dr. Morton Walker, who spent 20 years researching and writing about alternative medicine, wrote about olive leaf extract in a medical journal. He received 1500 requests from doctors for information. Dr. Walker read further and concluded it could treat everything from chronic fatigue to the common cold. The extract was more than a natural antibiotic. "It also has powerful disease-resistant properties which can fight off the superbugs endemic in western industrialised countries," he said. "These superbugs are resistant to modern antibiotics and we are being attacked by exotic new viruses."
Dr. Walker has written about his finding in his latest book, Nature's Antibiotic (Kensington Books, rrp $9.95)

OLIVE LEAF EXTRACT is being hailed as the new "superherb" to fight a growing array of "superbugs" including viruses and drug resistant bacteria.
The active ingredient in OLIVE LEAF EXTRACT "oleuropein, has been shown in laboratory tests to be effective against both fungi and parasites. Australia's Dr. Sandra Cabot, author of The Liver Cleansing Diet, recommends it for people with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. "It's a handy preventative for people who get chronic recurrent infections such as viruses, candida or cystitis." she said at a Brisbane's Writers Week  women's health breakfast. Dr. Cabot says "Olive leaf extract has been used for thousands of years and was extremely researched by the pharmaceutical company Upjohn in the 60's". "They found it had very broad spectrum antibiotic properties...... but decided it wasn't worth bring it out as a drug because they couldn't patent it " she said.

In 1992 French biologists found that all of the herpes viruses were killed by extracts from Olive leaf.
Olive Leaf Extract acts to prevent the onset of colds, flu and a range of viruses, yeast, fungi and mould problems, bacterial infections and parasites. It has been shown to reduce cholesterol, benefit the heart and arteries due to its high antioxidant qualities and build the immune system by stimulating phagocyte production

Research scientists have discovered that no toxic or other adverse side effects are evident, even in high doses. Olive Leaf Extract is a natural, non-toxic immune system builder. It is a safe, highly effective food supplement with potent and proven anti-microbial action.
