When we talk about the Mediterranean diet, we cannot leave out the European olive. Under this name is a tree found in the Mediterranean basin, providing the green and black fruits used to produce olive oil. An equally valuable part of the plant is the olive leaf, which contains oleuropein linked to many properties. The extract from the leaf is used in the production of dietary supplements. Such a product is offered by, among others, the NOW Foods brand.
