Best Supplement for Cold: Gaia Herbs Olive Leaf - Traditional Immune Health Support - Immune System Supplement with Olive Leaf Extract and Oleuropein - 60 Vegan Liquid Phyto-Caps

Works wonders!

I caught some kind of respiratory germ/bacterial infection or whatever and someone recommended Olive Leaf. I looked for the most reliable brand and dosage, which I found in Gaia. After having coughed myself sick off and on for 4 months and nothing the doctors gave me or told me helped, I tried these and it cleared up within a week. After being off it and cleared up for a few months, I caught the same thing again, and started back on these and was cleared up in days. Now I just take one a day in the evening and have not caught that again, plus, I haven't been sick with anything more than a mild Cold. I don't know about other illnesses, but I can swear that if you have bronchitis or a cough with no sore throat that makes you feel like your head is going to explode, this is the stuff to at least try

CAN'T LIVE W/O IT!

Been using this for about 9 years. If I sense a Cold or sinus headache coming on, I immediately take the Olive Leaf. I double the dose to kick the ailment out faster, but wouldn't recommend that unless you know your own body and what your Dr. says. I use natural herbs and meds all the time, for about 10 years now. This product is in my TOP 5 and I always have it in my cabinet and a few pills in my purse. It's the liquid form in a capsule. If I already have a Cold or sinus headache, I take the product in double dose and have to have a little patience as it takes an hour-ish for it to kick out the headache. WELL WORTH THE WAIT because you are healing yourself and not just masking symptoms that return when the numbness wears off from pain killers

A Lifesaver

Olive leaf extract has been nothing short of incredible. Back in November, I thought I was catching a Cold. That turned into a persistent infection of my ears, sinuses, and throat. In desperation, because it worked the last time I had a similar, but less persistent infection, I bought two 60 capsule bottles from the health food store. Took 12 per day for 2 weeks. Earache, headache, and sore throat diminished substantially in that time. However, Amazon offers this great product for about 2/3 the cost. Maintaining this regime would become rather costly at health food store prices. I imagine being on this for as long as it takes until I am 100 percent up to par, then dropping the dose to a maintenance level. One of my friends has had a bad cough for about a month. A week or so on 4 capsules per day knocked out whatever was causing that cough. Much better results than doctor prescribed antibiotics. I have known people who have been on very expensive antibiotics and they are still sick a month later. What is even more impressive is the lack of side effects from olive leaf extract. This is now something I will always have on hand for both myself and friends

I can't say enough of the this little miracle pill …

I can't say enough of the this little miracle pill!! I have used it twice now to stop what was sure to turn into a Cold or flu. At the first sign of sore throat/body aches I take 3 capsules 3 times a day until symptoms disappear ( usually after 3 doses) and they do not come back at all. My family has also used it at onset of Cold symptoms, and it worked for them as well. This stuff is truly a god send. Btw, I've also tried the now brand which is less expensive but I find that It did not work as well and upon looking into it, I found that now brand has less mg of the extract. Trust me, purchase this brand!

Lifesaver!!

Maybe that's an overstatement. But seriously, last year when my family had that horrible flu we tried EVERYTHING and could not get it to go away. Sick for 6 weeks I FINALLY remembered our chiropractor had recommended olive leaf extract a few years ago so I tried it and we were well within a week! We'd had that flu/Cold/sinus/hacking cough/tickling nighttime cough, etc that was going around. This particular brand received really good reviews, that's why I chose it. I've since recommended it to others that can't get rid of their Cold and it works every time! Tip from my chiropractor to keep in mind: drink lotsa water when you take olive leaf extract in order to flush out the toxins

A great plant ally anytime but especially during Cold and flu season.

i have used wonderful organic elderberry syrup over the years and other immune enhancers including this one. I mention it and shared it with co-workers this season. I will never know how much illness it warded off or lessened. I believe in it strongly. Thank you to the plants, trees, farmers, stores, and everyone involved in making it available to help me so much
