Description
Extract from olive oil can fight a wide range of health complications. Although it is most commonly used to achieve positive cardiovascular health, olive leaf extract is also known for its powerful anti-inflammatory properties and can help protect membranes from oxidation. Olive leaf extract contains over 100 phytochemicals and nutrients, many of which directly affect the health of your skin and hair. That's why it's often added to high-quality products aimed at strengthening and nourishing your hair. By adding this ingredient, you will often feel a synergistic effect, as olive leaf extract further enhances other key ingredients. Research has shown that olive leaf has a very high ORAC, or "oxygen radical absorbance capacity" score. Again, this represents their antioxidant potential in the body. In some cases, research has shown that this ingredient can even outperform the antioxidant activity of vitamin C by up to 400 times.
