You can use either fresh or dried olive leaves to make the extract.

If you’re using fresh leaves, take about 100-150 leaves per 1l of water. If using dried leaves, reduce the amount by two thirds. Wash the leaves thoroughly by leaving them for a few minutes in a mixture of water and baking soda then rinse well.

Next, put the leaves in water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes.

Strain the liquid, i.e. the extract and store in glass bottles.  Keep refrigerated.

How to use it:

The recommended dose is 1 tsp. three times a day with your meals. If you find the taste too strong, add some water to dilute it.

Alternatively, include olive oil or olive leaves into your daily diet and enjoy great health benefits!
