HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Olive Leaf Extract 500 mg by The Vitamin Shoppe
Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
This supplement contains one active ingredient: olive leaf extract at 500 mg per capsule. Olive leaf extract is the concentrated form of compounds from the olive plant's leaves.
The capsule also contains rice concentrate, gelatin, magnesium stearate, and silica — the inactive ingredients that hold everything together and make the capsule itself.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence for olive leaf extract isn't established for the uses tracked in our data. For osteoporosis, dyspepsia (indigestion), exercise-induced respiratory infections, shingles, flu, and osteoarthritis, the research is too limited or unclear to rate whether it works.
If you're considering this supplement for one of those reasons, talk it over with your doctor about whether the current evidence supports a trial.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Olive as a food and olive oil are very safe, but concentrated supplements like this one are less studied. The safety data we hold notes that the long-term safety of concentrated olive supplements isn't well known, so it's wise to get your doctor's approval before starting.
In trials, olive leaf extract was generally well tolerated. The most common side effects were headache and stomach discomfort.
One person reported skin issues and acne. If you're allergic to olive tree pollen or have seasonal respiratory allergies, be aware that the pollen can trigger symptoms.
Meds to double-check
No known interactions
No interactions are documented in our data for olive leaf extract. That doesn't mean they can't happen — it just means none are on record for this ingredient.
If you take medications regularly, it's still a good idea to run them through the search tool on this page or ask your pharmacist before you start.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.
Olive leaf extract is generally well tolerated, but the evidence for its effectiveness isn't clear for the conditions tracked. Because concentrated supplements are less studied than the food forms, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting to make sure it fits your situation and won't interfere with anything else you're taking.
