Oleratine Contains the Potential Covid-19 Inhibitor Oleuropein, the Most Important Biochemical in the Olive Tree
The most important and best known of these phenolic components is Oleuropein.
The leaves, fruits and seeds of the olive tree (Olea Europaea) have been used in the treatment of diseases for thousands of years. Many scientists especially work on the phenolic components found in the leaves and use them in the treatment of certain diseases. The main ones are oleuropein, hydroxytyrosol, verbascoside, luteolin 7- glucoside and apigenin 7-glucoside. The most important and best known of these phenolic components is Oleuropein.
Oleuropein has generally been the focus of the studies due to its antiviral, anticancer, antioxidant, antihypertensive, hypoglycemic, hypocholesterolemic, cardioprotective, neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. It is generally used by patients with type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer's, cancer, hypertension, vascular stiffening, obesity and AIDS. Its antiviral properties are the most striking feature these days, there are many publications related to inhibiting the HIV-1 and hepatitis virüs (ref. www.oleuropein.org ).
In molecular docking studies, SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes COVID-19, is a potential natural inhibitor of the M (pro) main protease. The most important active ingredient is obtained from wild and genetically non-modified trees by special extraction methods.
Officials of Jan Health Products ( www.jan.ltd ), stated that they put Oleratine on the market. Oleratine has high Oleuropein content obtained from wild trees in Turkey and Greece. People who consume high-quality olive products in the Mediterranean countries, live healthy and long. JAN H.P. officials stated that Oleratine will be sold in many countries and that they will pay special attention especially for the countries where the olive tree does not grow.
