The wild olive’s leaf tea

The “secret” of Olive leaves is hidden in phenolic compounds with strong antimicrobial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects (e.g. the polyphenols hydroxytyrosol, tyrosol, oleuropein, and ligstroside). These are the chemical compounds that protect the leaves (but also the skin of the Olive fruit) from external enemies, as they have bioactive properties with antioxidant, anti-viral and anti-cancer action. While growing, all plants, produce a multitude of organic and ethereal by-products, which modern science studies intensively and uses in the pharmaceutical and food industries.

Why did we choose Wild Olive leaves? The first reason is that scientific research has proven that Wild Olive leaves have a higher percentage of oleoeuropein (oleuropein) 23.9%, compared to the cultivated Olive, whose leaves have a percentage of oleoeuropein of 6.8%. The second reason is that our organic growers collect Wild Olive leaves from trees and bushes located at least 3 kilometers away from pesticide spraying points and other sources of contamination and dry them naturally. The third reason is that we want our food to be as close as possible to our ancient roots!

Why do we drink Herbs In The Sun® Wild Olive Leaf Tea every day? A bag of a biodegradable certified paper filter, without plastic fibers, filled with the powder from the leaves of Agrielia Mani, which we grid with a cold pressing process in the Inox hammer mill of our laboratory, is added every day to every herbal infusion we enjoy. Either plain or with any herb we have chosen to accompany it (Mountain Tea, Chamomile, Sage, etc.). Taste-wise, the gentle earthy, and oily/fruity sensation of olive prevail with a mild bitterness that simply connects us to the nature of this ancient herb.

What properties of olive leaves are researched by medical science? Cardiovascular diseases (coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, intermittent claudication, atrial fibrillation, arrhythmias, hypertension, atherosclerosis, blood pressure). Immune system (chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, immune system stimulation). Broad-spectrum antibacterial effect (terpene ether cleavage, lilurone and its hydrolyzate). Anti-cancer action. Aging skin. Dermatological diseases. Gastrointestinal system.
