Nature's Way Suplemento Fitoterápico de Folha de Oliveira, Extrato 250 mg, 20% de oleuropeína, 60 cápsulas

Saved Tons in Dr Bills 5 out of 5 Cured of the Flu

Myself I prefer to take the liquid extracts. Every time I’ve felt a cold coming on I takeNow Leaf GlyceriteNOW Foods Olive Leaf Glycerite 18% Oleuropein , 2 ounce and Oreganol P73 North American Herb and Spice, Oreganol P73, 0.45-Ounce. I take very heavy doses of both and I also take 1 drop of the Oreganol and rub it around in my nose. The Cold always stops in it’s tracks and never develops into a full cold. Than I get better normally. Don’t miss work, I do sleep extra on the weekends.My Children and Wife wont’ take the extracts so I recently bought Pill and SoftGel Form of these products . For the Oreganol I chose Now foods NOW OREGANO OIL ENTERIC COATED – 90 SOFTGELS [Health and Beauty] and for the Olive leaf I chose Natures Way Olive Leaf in capsule Nature’s Way Olive Leaf 20% Oleuropein, 60 VcapsThis past week a Flu hit the family Myself, Wife, Eldest Daughter and Middle Daughter.Also a flue hit two of my co-workers and I gave them 4 of each a day for 3 days.My Co Workers were given these on Friday and on Monday they were cured.Normally at least 2 or 3 of my children and my wife would have had to go to the Doctor and get Antibiotics and all that other stuff. These products worked. I went to Vegas for the SSW show on a Tuesday and when I returned on Friday everyone was cured. Without having seen an expensive Dr.These two products combined cured everyone the same way that the Tinctures cured me. Stopped the Cold in it’s tracks. The Children didn’t miss School,Wife got well in record time and important to me I didn’t end up laying out a lot of Money on Dr Bills.When I consider how much I saved in Dr. Bills, Antibiotics, Cough Syrups, Analgesics using these two products together for around $25.00 total cost was the deal of the century.!!I don’t know if either would work separately because I’ve found the two to work together so synergetically that I don’t want to risk taking separately.

Four Stars

Quite good.

Trustworthy brand Nature’s Way, 20% Oleuropein Olive Leaf, good deal, good results!

I was a bit worried when I placed my order being that I had read several reviews about people getting stomach upset or digestive issues with Olive Leaf that is standardized to 20% Oleuropein or higher.I’ve been taking this Nature’s Way Olive Leaf for 3 days now and I’m happy to report that I’ve had no stomach or digestive issues so far!I should mention that as suggested, I only take this product with food, usually right before or right after I eat.The capsules are medium size and pretty easy to swallow as long as you have plenty of liquid to wash it down with. Even though the product is encapsulated, you can still taste the olive leaf powder which is inside the capsule. It’s an interesting taste…. I would say the taste is reminiscent of the scent of a bouquet of flowers. I know, sounds odd but that’s what it tastes like LOL.Anyhow, since I haven’t had any stomach issues with this Olive Leaf supplement, I upped the dosage to 4 capsules per day since in my case, I’m in need of a high therapeutic dosage not just a supplemental dosage. So I’m pretty happy that even at 4 capsules per day I’m not having any issues with it.So far it seems to be helping my situation which is immune and lung related. I should also say that several days before I started the Olive Leaf I also start on Oil Of Oregano, so the combination of the two may also be a factor.Contrary to the the Olive Leaf, I do have to be careful with the Oil Of Oregano because that stuff is VERY caustic and has sent me running for some antacid several times already due to stomach pain/burning sensation.Anyhow, the research on Olive Oil is pretty extensive so I have plenty to base my assumption that the Olive Leaf is at least partially responsible for my noticeable improvement.Since today I’m going on my 4th day on the Olive Leaf, I will check back after a few more weeks to update how things are going with the Olive Leaf.Glad I was able to find a 20% Oleuropein potency Olive Leaf supplement at a decent price here on Amazon. None of the vitamin shops in town had Olive Leaf in anything higher than 17% and most of the research indicates that 20% or higher is what worked in the studies.Nature’s Way also happens to be a very well established brand with a very good reputation. Gotta be very careful when ordering supplements on Amazon since there are more than a few sketchy brands on here that seem pretty “fly by night” if you know what I mean.

Works Wonderfully For Me

After looking at my orders on Amazon, I realize I got the dates wrong so am editing them & doing an update.I bought this product first time in Dec. 2014.Due to another health issue, getting colds/flu takes a long time for me to recover so I got a yearly flu shot. Then my doctor told me flu shots weren’t good for me either and highly recommended Olive Leaf Extract. The brand she suggested was much more expensive than this so after reading the reviews, I gave this one a try. She told me to take it for 3 weeks, and 1 week off due to the fact I have low blood pressure already. I was worried I’d forget so I started taking it every other day in the cold season, and 2 x a week the rest of the year.As of this edit date, Jan. 26, 2O20, I’ve only had a cold/flu once in Jan 2015 right after beginning this Olive Leaf. To be honest, I wasn’t taking them regularly at first & worked a Sunday at church with the 2 years olds. Silly of me not to be more diligent. It also may take a little time to build up resistance in your system. I’ve worked several times in the nursery since then, in all seasons of the year, and not got sick.My hubby, age 66, works with the public. He would get colds/flu each cold season, sometimes multiple times a season but I did not get his colds. I asked him to please start taking the Olive Leaf with me. He began taking it at the end of 2017, but not as regularly as me. He has had as of this edit, 2 minor colds that lasted one day, instead of 3 bad ones he had early 2017 that were difficult to shake.Now he sees the benefit and takes it more regularlyI would suggest beginning Olive Leaf daily at least in the beginning for a month or more before cold season begins.I also rarely eat out and if I do, it is only at a couple of healthy places that I trust. Having worked in the food service industry, I have to be honest and say that too often many employees work while sick and are not especially sanitary. I am also very diligent about washing or sanitizing my hands while I’m out in public.I did not get this product for free nor do I work for the company so this is a completely unbiased review.I’m not claiming it to be a miracle, all I am saying is that so far it has done the job for my husband & me.

Not great

Not nearly as effective as drinking it in tea form. The capsules were ok, but only worked about a quarter as well as an 8 oz cup of olive leaf tea.

Economicly priced

Received product in good shape and it over all was economically priced.

I used it with oregano oil extract for colds

This review is the same as the one I wrote for Nature’s Way Oregano Oil, 60 Liquid Vcaps, because I use the two herbs together.My brother was the first one to inform me of using oregano oil to help fight off colds. And my sister recommended I also try olive leaf extract for the same purpose.Prior to using these products, I would get about 2-3 colds a year for as long as I can remember. The first symptom would be general fatigue, followed by a sore throat, a runny and/or stuffy nose, then coughing and congestion. The mild symptoms would last about 1.5 weeks, but unfortunately sometimes the congestion would linger for weeks.Then I started taking the oregano oil and olive leaf extract. What I’ve discovered over the past 5 years is this. If I start taking these herbal supplements when I start getting a sore throat, then usually I never get any chest congestion. In addition, any symptoms I do have are generally milder. So for the past 5 years, I’ve only had 3 serious colds, and one of those was linked to allergies (I live in Central Texas, and cedar allergies are common, although I’m not usually severely affected by them). Prior to taking these herbal supplements, I would have averaged about 10 colds in a 5 year time span.To achieve my results, I take 1 olive leaf pill with every meal, 3 times daily, as soon as I detect the initial symptoms (usually for me it is a sore throat). For oregano oil I take 1 or 2 pills a day (adjust consumption of oregano oil per your needs…some folks are sensitive and can be allergic to it). I continue this intake for about 5 days, which is usually when the soreness in my throat subsides.Overall, I’m SERIOUSLY pleased with my results. Whereas over-the-counter medicines might make you feel better, they do nothing to actually combat the virus itself (they just might make your nose less stuffy, or abate your headache). Based on my personal experience, I feel like whatever compounds are in these herbs do actually assist your body in fighting the viruses.**** UPDATE: DECEMBER 12, 2013 ****My ongoing quest for better health continues, and so far I’m pleased with the results. It’s been over 2 years since I’ve had a cold or anything worse. However, to be clear, I can’t definitively attribute it just to olive leaf extract and oregano oil supplements. I think the changes I’ve listed below that I’ve made in my diet the last few years have helped as well. Folks should keep these points in mind if they are considering taking olive leaf extract and oregano oil supplements to prevent or help overcome a cold/flu/etc. I’m not saying a person needs to do all the things listed below to fight a cold. What I am saying is that if a person is getting a cold (or already has a cold), then they start taking olive leaf extract and oregano oil supplements to fight the cold, but they are still eating a bunch of sugar laden foods and consuming a lot of alcohol while they’re sick, then their actions are inhibiting the positive effects of the olive leaf extract and oregano oil supplements. Health must be approached holistically…there is no “silver bullet” in the form of a few supplements that can prevent or overcome sickness. Also remember that a person’s body chemistry is unique. If you can’t obtain the same positive results with olive leaf extract and oregano oil supplements as other folks have, don’t be dismayed…continue to find that unique diet, lifestyle, and supplement formula that works for you (and share your good results with me when you do 🙂 …I’m so very curious about ways to obtain better health). And remember that the approach to good health is highly debatable, so do your own research and arrive at your own conclusions.1) Greatly reduced the amount of table sugar I consume, especially if I feel like I’m at risk of getting sick (e.g. if I’m stressed out from work, not sleeping well, around a lot of people who are sick, etc.).2) I drink fresh lime juice fairly regularly. Cut a lime in half and squeeze the juice from the halves into a warm cup of water. I drink with a straw to mitigate too much of the acidic juice from washing over my teeth and brush my teeth promptly afterwards. Like with point #1, if sickness risk is elevated I’ll drink this tea daily.3) I’ve greatly increased the amount of fruits and vegetables I eat every day. As I’ve learned over the years, when a person sits down to eat, ideally they should be looking at a plate of mostly vegetables and fruits, a small portion of protein (especially seafood high in omega-3 and low in mercury), and perhaps a bit of some gluten free starch. Some of these points can be argued (e.g. vegetarians would say no meat), but compared to the typical US diet, eating like this would be a TREMENDOUS improvement. Personally I’ve taken to creating smoothies to consume more fruits and vegetables. Here is one recipe: 3 carrots, 1 cup frozen blueberries, 2 bananas, couple slices of ginger, a tablespoon olive oil, as much dark leafy greens as your palate can stand, and concord grape juice to provide the liquid base and control the viscosity.4) I’ve transitioned to a diet mostly free from some of the more common allergens (e.g. gluten, dairy, and soy).5) I meditate. All the benefits of mediation can’t be described here, but the modern science is finally starting to validate its purely physical benefits, which includes reducing stress and strengthening the immune system. This topic definitely deserves your further consideration. Try Mindfulness: An Eight-Week Plan for Finding Peace in a Frantic World for a good modern day primer on the subject, which was written and researched by university level researchers.6) Exercise at least twice a week.**** UPDATE: DECEMBER 15, 2016 ****Nothing bad to say about it, but I actually don’t use this product anymore. After continuing to migrate to an overall healthier lifestyle per the bullets in my previous update, it’s been a really long time (over 3 years) since I’ve been full-blown sick. Usually I can tell if my immune system is fighting something because I’ll get this general tired feeling, then a mild sore throat…at which point I take the following steps until the symptoms end:1) Stop eating most animal protein, dairy, foods with gluten, and products with a lot of refined sugar (e.g. candy, cookies, etc.). Avoiding all food that contain common allergens (e.g. soy, shellfish, etc.) is the overall goal.2) Start making a daily lime smoothie consisting of a lime that I’ll wash and slice up (including the skin) and blend with grape juice to taste.3) Eat a clove or two of garlic a day.
