Barlean's Olive Leaf Complex (Liquid), Peppermint

Comments about Barlean's Olive Leaf Complex (Liquid), Peppermint, 16 oz:

This was recommended to me in January 2011 by a friend who happens to be an RN for its anti-viral properties. I have a compromised immune system, and the antibiotics prescribed for an upper respiratory infection were not helping at all. Perhaps "the crud" was running its course, but I continued to take it even after I felt better. A strange benefit - the woman who cuts my hair, who I hadn't seen in months commented that I must be doing something different. In the ten+ years she has cut my hair she said she had never seen & felt it so healthy.

I don't know why they "flavor" it with peppermint. I love peppermint, and I have never noticed a peppermint flavor. I know that olive leaf complex is sold in pills and capsules, but the Barlean's is obviously doing something positive for me. It does however, taste disgusting.

My husband and 6 year old son were sick with the stomach flu. They hadn't been taking the Olive Leaf Extract regularly. My 7 year old and I had been. We felt bad, but we never actually got sick from the flu. I thought for sure I would get sick. So, my 7 year old and I started taking more of the Olive Leaf Extract. Fortunately, we just felt bad for a day and was fine. I contribute it to the extract. Some say the taste is nice; I say it is not. But, usually if something is good for you, it doesn't taste good. It's only 1 tablespoon so no big deal.
