HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Olive Leaf Extract by New Sun

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.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

What’s inside

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • “Proprietary Extract Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (2 mL) without saying how much of each component you get.

This liquid contains one active ingredient: Olive leaf extract. The inactive ingredients are blackberry brandy, distilled water, and grain alcohol, which serve as the liquid base and preservative.

Does it work?

Couldn't assess
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Not assessable

This is a single-ingredient Olive product and its label doesn't state a use — see Olive's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

The evidence for olive leaf extract isn't established in the data we hold. The product is marketed for osteoporosis, GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease, or chronic heartburn), exercise-related respiratory infections, shingles, flu, and osteoarthritis — but for all of these, the evidence we have rates as insufficient to say whether it actually works.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Olive

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Olive as a food and oil is very safe, but concentrated supplements like this one are less studied. The safety data for concentrated olive supplements isn't well known, so your doctor should approve it before you use it.

In trials and reports, olive leaf extract has been well tolerated overall. The most common side effects are headache and stomach discomfort.

One person reported acne, and olive tree pollen can trigger seasonal allergies if you're sensitive. Because this product contains grain alcohol and blackberry brandy, it may not be suitable if you avoid alcohol.

Meds to double-check

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no assessable stated purpose. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.

Olive Leaf Extract by New Sun may appeal to you if you're exploring traditional uses for bone health, digestion, or seasonal wellness — but we don't yet have solid evidence it works for those purposes. Because concentrated olive supplements are less studied than the whole food, talk with your doctor before starting, especially if you take other medications or have concerns about alcohol content.
