Olive tree (Olea europaea)
The olive tree is an evergreen Mediterranean tree with distinctive silvery-green leaves that withstand strong sunlight, wind and drought. Its presence is quiet yet powerful – often associated with longevity, stability and inner balance. Although best known for its fruit, olive leaves also have a long and valued place in traditional herbalism.
It belongs to the Oleaceae family. The leaves (Olea europaea folium) are used to prepare the tincture. They contain a variety of naturally occurring plant compounds, including polyphenols characteristic of this plant.
The olive tree is one of the oldest cultivated plants in the Mediterranean and has been part of human life for thousands of years. It has long symbolised peace, wisdom and protection. Its leaves are remarkably resilient and retain their vitality for a long time, reflecting the very nature of the tree – strength, adaptability and the ability to maintain balance even in challenging conditions.
Traditionally, olive leaves have been used during periods when we wish to support the body’s internal balance. They are often associated with supporting metabolism, circulation and general vitality, as well as being included in herbal routines during times of increased physical and mental demands.
Olive leaves have also been traditionally associated with supporting blood sugar balance, healthy circulation, digestion, intestinal function and the body’s natural defences. Their use is rooted in generations of herbal knowledge and observation, with the olive tree offering its quiet yet enduring support.

When is the best time to harvest olive leaves?
Olive leaves are traditionally harvested in dry, sunny weather, when they are fully developed and firm. They are often collected before or during flowering, when the plant is at its peak vitality. It is important to select healthy, undamaged leaves from a clean environment.
Can olive leaves cause a significant drop in blood pressure?
Olive leaves may have a blood pressure-lowering effect, so some people may notice changes when they start taking them. If your blood pressure drops significantly or you experience dizziness, stop taking the tincture and consult a healthcare professional. This is particularly important if you are taking blood pressure medication, as the effects may be additive.
How do olive leaves differ from olive oil?
Olive leaves and olive oil come from the same plant but have different compositions. The leaves contain different plant compounds from the fruit, which is why they are used differently in traditional herbalism. Both, however, reflect the characteristic qualities of the olive tree – stability, resilience and longevity.
