topicOlive Leaf Blood Glucose Meta-Analysis
claimResearch shows that olive polyphenols (oleuropein, hydroxytyrosol, luteolin, and oleocanthal), as well as pomegranate polyphenols (punicalagin, urolithin A, ellagic acid), inhibit cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase enzymes, which are associated with inflammatory processes.
