Here is some more evidence of both efficacy and safety for using olive leaf extract as an all-round antiviral. As the research below shows, olive leaf extract -- oleuropein -- is able to defeat vuruses -- any virus, including COVID-19 -- in 5 different ways. See the research below: " Researchers at the Upjohn pharmaceutical company reported the following antiviral effects (in my simpler words) using a salt made from olive leaf ingredients (Calcium elenolate) in laboratory experiments in live tissue. It had antiviral activity against every virus it was tested on and works as follows: 1. Penetrates into host cells and blocks viral replication. 2. Interferes with the virus' production of the proteins it needs. (Interference with the virus' hijacking of your cell function). 3. Inactivates the viruses, preventing their migration from infected cells and their connection with cell membranes. 4. Stops a retrovirus's production of protease and reverse transcriptase - enzymes a retrovirus such as HIV uses to alter the RNA of a heallthy cell. 5. Stimulates the human immune system response (to destroy them). In short, olive leaf extract ingredients block a virus' life cycle, stop it multiplying then call up immune cells to demolish it. It will likely do this to a greater or lesser degree to any viral infection, and so offers much hope to those who wish to avoid infections or those who need help in combating them."
