A well functioning immune system is a key to good health. Recently, interest has surged in the immune-enhancing effects of botanicals and specific nutrients with some of these substances, such as echinacea and goldenseal, becoming household words. Research has found many natural substances to enhance phagocyctic, T-lymphocyte, natural killer, and B-cell activities.
Olive leaf extract exhibits important antiviral, antibacterial, antioxidant, hypoglycemic, and vasodilatory effects. Extracts have been found to neutralize the production of reverse transcriptase and protease, directly stimulate phagocytosis, and inhibit LDL oxidation.
