Comvita Fresh-Picked™ Olive Leaf Extract is traditionally used to support and maintain a healthy immune system, and help provide relief from the symptoms of the common cold, sore throats and coughs.
It is a powerful antioxidant and free radical scavenger, with the high levels of polyphenols helping to maintain cardiovascular health, support normal blood pressure and maintain normal cholesterol levels in healthy individuals. Comvita Fresh-Picked™ Olive Leaf Extract is clinically researched to assist in the maintenance of normal blood glucose balance in healthy individuals.
Extensive research has shown the Mediterranean diet is responsible for a range of health benefits, partly due to the healthy antioxidants derived from the high intake of olive oil, made from olive fruit. For many centuries, the fresh leaves of the olive tree have also been used for health maintenance and wellbeing in Mediterranean countries, and now we know why. Olive leaves contain a variety of compounds that have many actions within the body – the main one of which is Oleuropein. 
The MediOlive® symbol is our guarantee to you that every batch of Comvita Fresh-Picked™ Olive Leaf Extract contains not only high levels of Oleuropein but all of the other important plant polyphenols, with no artificially boosted levels. The ‘natural balance’ in our fresh Olive Leaf Extract provides a more powerful free radical scavenging capacity than when the individual components are isolated. Each Capsule provides 66mg of Oleuropein.
Many people are quickly realising that Comvita Fresh-Picked™ Olive Leaf Extract is a supplement with a wide range of benefits suitable for the whole family. While some people are using it throughout winter, many more are finding it improves wellbeing all year round. Comvita Olive Leaf Extract does not contain any artificial flavours, colourings, preservatives, alcohol, sugar, lactose, starch, yeast or gluten.

Antioxidant Research
Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) testing determines the antioxidant potential of foods, botanicals, and biological samples. It is a test that can measure to what degree a substance of interest can scavenge various free radicals that prevent free radical damage within cells. Laboratory research demonstrates Comvita Olive Leaf Extract has high antioxidant activity, measured by the ORAC test method. This research* has compared the antioxidant power of Comvita Fresh-Picked™ Olive Leaf Extract against Vitamin C and other well-known antioxidants. The results show that our fresh leaf extract has 5 times greater antioxidant capacity than Vitamin C, approximately double that of an equivalent amount of Green Tea extract and is significantly higher in antioxidants than many of the other antioxidants tested.
