Olive leaf extract supplementation improves the vascular and metabolic alterations associated with aging in Wistar rats
Abstract Olive leaves are rich in bioactive substances which exert anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, insulin-sensitizing and antihypertensive effects. The aim of this study was to analyze the possible beneficial effects of an olive leaf extract (OLE) rich in secoiridoids and phenolic compounds on the...
