I use it for myself and think it's very helpful for yeast. After using it a few days, I feel much better, less shaky (this is one symptom I get when I'm yeasty), greatly reduced sugar cravings. My son won't take capsules, and I'm having problems getting it into him. Also, being an herb, I'm guessing it's high in phenols (anyone correct me if I'm wrong here) and my son has great problems with phenols.

This is from someone at Food Science: The Reason we chose DMG and Olive Leaf was because you could take it with other Drugs, therapies, and homeopathic treatments without contraindications. The DMG will also help reduce the effect of Die off that can be seen with products like olive leaf, because it helps with detoxification and modulation of the immune system. We want to control the dysbiosis but not to shock the system. The procedure that was worked out was that DMG at dosages found to be beneficial to those with autism would be used along with a child dose of olive leaf every other day (to control die off) on the alternating days a probiotic would be used to replenish " good " gut bacteria.

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2003 Report Share Posted December 19, 2003 Does all Olive Leaf Extract taste the same? How do you get your son to drink it? I'm sick right now and bought some liquid from the HFS today and put two droppers full in my diet coke and was gagging it tasted so awful! [ ] Olive Leaf Extract A chiropractor that I take my son to is also a homeopathic doctor. He prescribed European Olive Extract by Gemmotherapy for my son about 10 months ago. My son never gets sick! He hasn't had a fever, ear infection, cold, etc, etc for over a year. In fact, I really can't remember the last time he was really sick. I wondered what this stuff was doing for him and now after reading these posts regarding the Olive Leaf Extract, I know. I am very grateful to him! This comes in liquid form with eye dropper and can be found if you look up Gemmotherapy on the internet. I can't remember what the exact name of the web site is. I have been giving him, 4 yrs, 32 lbs, 1 eye dropper full in some water twice a day, first thing in the morning and at night before bed. By the way, my son has been going to pre-school through our school district five days a week and still never gets sick! It's well worth a try!

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2003 Report Share Posted December 19, 2003 I agree it does taste awful. I take a dixi cup and put a little water in it and add the OLE. I chug it and then drink juice or pop afterwards. It is a little more palatable this way. > Does all Olive Leaf Extract taste the same? How do you get your son to drink it?

Guest guest Posted December 20, 2003 Report Share Posted December 20, 2003 Amazing how our taste buds are all different. For myself, I can put it in water and barely taste it. For my son, it's 5 drops a day which I put in his juice. He drinks it without issue. The brand I'm using with him is Nature's Way. Lynn > > Does all Olive Leaf Extract taste the same?

Guest guest Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 Nature's Answer in the yellow bottle is alcohol-free and has some taste to it, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea to try and treat yeast with it because it's my understanding that OLE does have antibacterial properties. Knocking down bacteria isn't always a good idea because along with getting rid of unfavorable bacteria, anti-bacterials knock down friendly bacteria as well. That's bad because friendly bacteria controls yeast by competing with the yeast for space in the intestines. It seems to my knowledge that crowding out yeast with lots and lots of probiotics is the way to go in yeast control. There are drugs specific for yeast, but the advice I got was that they require liver monitoring so we chose to steer clear of them. I would be remiss if I didn't include mentioning a product called Aqua Flora which we used for Candida. You might want to learn more about that.

Guest guest Posted August 1, 2004 Report Share Posted August 1, 2004 Tina, I think it's the Oleuropein you want. I believe that is the " active " ingredient of OLE.

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2004 Report Share Posted December 30, 2004 >>>> Just read this very interesting report on Olive Leaf Extract. Sees like very powerful stuff! Anyone have any experience? Do you thin it's OK to take with enzymes? Wow! That is like a book on olive leaf extract. Yes, a good quality product can be helpful. But keep in mind these are not cure-alls although articles like this tell about all the good benefits in details. It may work well as part of a total program. Oregano and grapefruit seed extract are also helpful, as well as colloidal silver, for similar uses. If you use any of these, including the olive leaf extract, with enzymes, keep in mind there is often a synergistic effect. Enzymes and other things work well together. The effectiveness of a combination may be much more effective than either alone, but if you aren't prepared you might find a die-off reaction shocking! That is the main caution, go slow until you know the degree of effectiveness. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 Yes. We have also had great experiences taking OLE. Whenever signs of a virus hits, we double our AFP Peptizyde several times a day(2+ capsules each time)plus one No-Fenol (to help with the phenol issues) and one Zyme-Prime. The Proteases (in the Peptizyde and Zyme Prime) along with the Olive Leaf Extract help a great deal in ridding the body of a virus. Our viruses used to last 5 plus days, but now only last 1 to 3 days! Thanks for sharing this info..... Gretchen > Just read this very interesting report on Olive Leaf Extract.
