Uses: Olive leaf Extract is a natural antimicrobial supplement that does not have the dangers or side-effects of antibiotics. This product is doctor-recommended. However, Seagate does not make any medical claims about this product because it is classified as a supplement not a medicine. A good source of additional information is Dr. Morton Walker's article published in the Townsend Letter describing Seagate's Olive Leaf Extract. Click Here to download the PDF version of the article.
The Source: Seagate employees hand select our olive leaves from local trees immediately after the olives are harvested each winter. This is the moment of highest level of phytochemical and antioxidant activity once the fruit has ripened.
Manufacture: Seagate employs a cold-press freshwater extraction process, without the use of any chemicals, solvents, or alcohol. We use a mechanical process to crush the leaves, before they are placed in a freshwater bath where the phytochemicals are dissolved. Specially-designed vacuum tanks are then used to recover both dissolved and undissolved solids. This is a whole herb extract that carefully concentrates all the phytochemicals provided by Nature, without having any residual solvent appear in the finished product, and without altering the delicate structure and balance of the phytochemicals and nutritional components of the olive leaf.
Oleuropein controversy: The oleuropein contained in this Seagate product is just one element of the array of active phytochemicals found in the olive leaf which some companies have mistakenly used as their measure of potency. Seagate uses independent laboratories to test our finished product for quality and purity, as we do for all our other products.

Side Effects: Olive leaves have been used safely for thousands of years. The only known side-effect is the possibility of a Herxheimer reaction, an allergic response caused by the rapid die-off of fungi that release toxins which may temporarily cause a brief allergic reaction, lasting for several days.
Purity: There is no filler or excipient in this or any Seagate product. It is 100% pure, derived only from olive leaves. The product color can naturally vary between light brown and green, depending upon the olive groves being utilized, and to the amount of rainfall and local temperature conditions during the year preceeding harvest.
Application: Dietary support maybe needed to helpprotect you against resistant germs. Take 2 to 4 capsules per day as a maintenance level. Take 4 to 9 capsules per day for additional support.Olive leaf can be taken with or between meals; although it is preferable to be taken one half hour before meal time. For throat irritations, you can open a capsule, dissolve the powder in 4 oz. of warm water, and gargle and swallow to help sooth your throat. The powder from this capsule can also be applied topically directly onto external skin irritations – a drop or two of water can be added to make a paste and gently rubbed into the skin. The skin will absorb the powder and its light green natural coloring. (The color will wash off with soap and water.) For irritations of the mouth or gums, pack some powder directly onto the irritated tissue and allow it to slowly dissolve.
Value: One Seagate 450 mg. capsule costs about the same as the 250 mg. capsules made by many of our competitors. We are able to provide better value because we do not purchase our raw material from other dealers. Seagate harvests and performs the entire extraction process in our own plant. Seagate is now able to realize cost economies from processing over 28 health food products within the same plant.

I'm an RN and always looking for more holistic ways to help my patients and my family. I have always gotten 2 or 3 colds a yr, thinking that was "normal" but since finding Seagates Olive Leaf Extract--7 yrs ago, I have not missed a day of work due to a cold. When I feel that tickle in my throat, the feeling of impending doom, a cold coming on, I take 3 OLE 3x a day for 3-4 days(if I remember that long) usually well the next am, certainly the next. It's been a miracle for me and my son(safe 4kids

Hi,
I'm Shanny and I live in Missouri, where allergies are terrible! I think problem is mold from confluence of many rivers and many caves. Vets just think it's "allergies." Last year, I had to get a steroid shot it was so bad. And, as you know, they are very bad for you! This year, I started Olive Leaf Extract and I am 100% better than last year! My mom takes it too! Thank you!
OLE is a Great Product on 2010-06-23, Linda in Tampa, FL, USA says:
I've been battling probable undiagnosed Lyme Disease / Fibromyalgia for 18 months, and after a number of doctors couldn't get positive treatment. I ordered this product and have been taking it in large doses (4 capsules 3 x / day) for the past month, and I can't believe the difference in how I'm feeling. It seems like a dark cloud has been lifted off of me, and I have so much more energy and so few aches! I am so encouraged by the positive change in my life! Thank you for a great product!
Olive Leaf Extract on 2010-03-02, Christine in Klamath Falls, OR, USA says:
During the flu season of 08-09 I was taking the Olive Leaf Extract and and I did not get bronchitus like I had the past 2 years. I also had a vaginal yeast infection that would not go away with over the counter medications. So I took a Olive Leaf Extract capsule and inserted it into my vagina and have not had that problem. I know this was not recommended, yet I figured if I take it internally it would not hurt the other way and I was right.
