FAQ
- What is oleuropein, and what does it do in the body?
Oleuropein is the primary polyphenol found in olive leaf extract and is responsible for many of its beneficial properties. It acts as an antioxidant, helping protect cells from oxidative stress caused by free radicals. Oleuropein also supports healthy immune function and cardiovascular health by helping maintain normal cell function and healthy blood vessel function. Because oleuropein is the key bioactive compound in olive leaf, many high-quality supplements are standardized to provide a consistent amount in every serving. - When is the best time to take olive leaf extract?
Olive leaf extract can be taken any time of day, but it is often recommended to take it with a meal to support digestive comfort and encourage consistent daily use. Its benefits are associated with regular supplementation over time rather than the specific time of day it is taken, so the best time is the one that fits your routine and helps you take it consistently. - What should I look for in an olive leaf extract supplement?
When choosing an olive leaf extract supplement, look for one that is standardized for its oleuropein content rather than relying only on the total amount of olive leaf extract. Standardization helps ensure you receive a consistent amount of the extract's primary bioactive polyphenol in every serving. Also consider factors such as ingredient quality, serving strength, and manufacturing quality standards when comparing products. - Is Swanson Olive Leaf Extract suitable for special diets?
Swanson Olive Leaf Extract is made with non-GMO ingredients and is gluten free and dairy free, making it a good choice for many dietary preferences. However, because the capsule contains gelatin, it is not suitable for vegan or vegetarian diets.
