Brisbane, Australia (ContentDesk) September 29th, 2005 ? The search for eternal youth has eluded us all since well before King Tutankhamen but increasingly, scientists are turning to antioxidants to slow ageing and prevent degenerative diseases.
An Australian company has just unlocked something which Egypt's Boy King overlooked.After more than 30 years of olive growing, Ray and Julian Archer have put the final touches on their EnvirOl?a™ system for growing, harvesting and extracting the healing compounds in Olea europaea leaves.
Samples have been tested by Dr Lesley Stevenson's team at the Natural Products Pharmacology Unit at Southern Cross University in the product's first-ever antioxidant capacity tests.
Dr Stevenson and her team are amazed at the results.What did you discover? "We found that the EnvirOl?a™ formulated extracts have an extremely high antioxidant capacity.
They are almost twice as powerful as the famous natural antioxidant green tea extract and five times more powerful than Vitamin C." reported Dr Stevenson.
"The EnvirOl?a™ formulated extracts were also far more powerful at quenching the damaging free radicals than much-acclaimed antioxidants such as Grape Seed Extract and Vitamin E.
It is a very exciting discovery.
Olive Leaf Australia's EnvirOl?a™ extract is in an antioxidant league of its own." said Dr Stevenson.The breakthrough is great news for natural health care as antioxidants can be used in a wide range of medicines, health supplements, cosmetics, functional foods and drinks to help prevent advanced ageing and cell degradation and to assist in the prevention of a number of degenerative diseases.Julian Archer of Olive Leaf Australia Pty Ltd described his reaction to the news.
"I was totally astounded.
We've been supplying our "Olive Leaf Australia" brand of extract to the Australian market for four years.
We knew there was something very special about it because of the hundreds of success stories we receive from people who use it to dramatically improve their health.
Based primarily on word-of-mouth, Australians alone are already spending $1 million a month on our extracts."Where to from here? "Requests for our EnvirOl?a™ extracts are arriving from natural medicine and health food manufacturers around the world.
We're working with a team of doctors, cardiologists and professional researchers to start clinical trials on how our extracts can be tailored to relieve a range of serious health conditions."Internationally-renowned cardiologist and Mediterranean diet specialist Dr David Colquhoun commented, "This is a truly significant discovery.
There are already more than forty completed studies on the effects of olive leaf extract on blood pressure, cholesterol, respiratory problems and immune deficiencies.
You don't need to be a doctor to know that a product with hundreds of times the antioxidant power of extra virgin olive oil is going to be very good for keeping cells young and healthy."For additional information on EnvirOl?a™ extracts contact Julian Archer or visit www.EnvirOlea.com Company Overview:???Olive Leaf Australia Pty Ltd is a privately-owned company established in 1999 to research and develop medicinal compounds from Olea europaea leaves.
