Can Olive Leaf help fight off bacterial and viral infections?

Olive Leaf - Worth Adding to Your Herbal Cabinet

Olive leaf extract is an antimicrobial agent that is believed to have the power to kill some troublesome viruses, such as the cold virus, herpes, and Epstein-Barr. Its power also extends to lending a powerful blow to knocking out sinusitis and bronchitis, as well as reducing hypertension and cholesterol levels. It is most effective when taken as a capsule standardized to 6 percent oleurpein, and recommended dose is one 500 mg daily to fight an existing bacterial or viral infection.
