Olive Polyphenol Antioxidants
As science progresses, experimental data to support the role of antioxidants in maintaining health becomes even more compelling. It is now clear that the functional integrity of numerous tissue and body systems in humans and animals depend upon scavenging and eliminating excess free radicals. A large body of published scientific research confirms the tremendous antioxidant activity of olive polyphenols, especially Hydroxytyrosol (HT). In the context of a healthy diet and lifestyle, the potential benefits of olive polyphenols include:
Joint Health and Mobility
Numerous types of evidence, including epidemiological studies and clinical trials, demonstrate the importance of a healthy diet for maintenance of joint health. In particular, the Mediterranean diet is associated with maintenance of joint mobility, and the sustained vitality associated with ease of motion. Olive oil is one of several dietary factors associated with joint health. Controlled clinical trials gave demonstrated that olive oil can significantly contribute to joint mobility and quality of life. Animal studies strongly suggest that the polyphenols in olive oil, not the oil itself, are the essential components responsible for joint health.
Cardiovascular Health
The Mediterranean diet is associated with heart health. Laboratory studies suggest that some of the benefits of this diet on the structure and function of the cardiovascular system are due to polyphenol antioxidants, including Hydroxytyrosol. One such study looked at the need to minimize oxidation of LDL (bad) cholesterol to maintain healthy heart function. In the laboratory study Hydroxytyrosol was found to have a positive effect, indicating a potential cardiovascular protective benefit.
Skin Health
Skin needs antioxidants to remain healthy, especially during sun exposure. Compared to traditional antioxidants used by the cosmetic industry, such as tocopherols from vitamin E, olive polyphenols have much higher antioxidant activity. In one controlled animal study, OLIVENOL was demonstrated to maintain skin health in a normal healthy state, even after exposure to UV radiation.
Colon and Breast Wellness
Antioxidants can help to maintain proper cell cycling that is essential for health. In once recent controlled study, olive polyphenol Hydroxytyrosol was shown to have a potent effect on healthy cell cycling in colon and breast tissue.
Anti-Microbial
In one laboratory study, olive polyphenols inhibited or delayed the growth rate of bacteria such as salmonella and staphylococcus, as well as viruses such as influenza, indicating a potential application for maintaining food freshness.
Did Japanese Scientists Really Kill A(H1N1) Virus?
WOW!!!
We underestimated the interest level of our readers in the detailed scientific content of our postings. Our pageviews spiked following this article we posted 4 days ago.
We received emails from doctors, pharmacists and the general public asking for verification (and source) that the reported research quoted in our posting was true and not a hoax. Did the Japanese scientists really kill the A(H1N1) virus with hydroxytyrosol (HT)?
The best way we can clear this, is to provide you a download link of the paper we referred to HERE.
We have a scientific team in our company actively monitors all ongoing research around the world on Hydroxytyrosol (HT), the active ingredient in OLIVENOL livin’. Our fascination with HT goes beyond just a commercial interest. In fact, we are more motivated to discover and document the extent of therapeutic effect this “miracle” molecule God has given us through the olive fruit.
To date, there are well established scientific, medical and clinical evidence that HT plays a positive role in:
- cardiovascular system – inhibits LDL oxidation, prevent and reverse arthereosclerosis
- controlling arthritic indications – anti-inflammatory, cartilage regeneration, improve mobility, pain relief
- skin health – controlling psoriasis indications, clearing eczema and acne, improve moisture retention for healthy skin
- modulate immune system – reduce allergic effect, anti viral infection, quicker recovery from illness, control autoimmune induced indications
- anti aging – increase total glutathione status in body
- anti-cancer effect – induce cell apoptosis
Please read the related articles to link to back to the relevant research and publications on the multi effect of HT. We will continue to add to this knowledge base on OLIVES – one of nature’s best kept secret.
