Simple way of getting what you need. This supplement will be a constant in my routine.
I have been using every day! I feel great but won't know the difference until I do another blood draw for cholesterol. Fingers crossed.
I love the easy pill of high quality olive oil. So convenient instead of the shot in the morning — and just as effective. I'm a subscriber and glad I chose that option.
Unique supplement replaces my daily tablespoon of olive oil.
Olivea has changed my health routine for the better. With it in supplement form, it's a whole lot easier and I can take it on the road.
After reading the research on PubMed about the benefits of hydroxytyrosol, I chose Olivea because of the source and the delivery system. I'm 70 and hope to stay disease-free with healthy longevity.
I used to take two fish oil capsules every morning. I've switched to this hydroxytyrosol supplement instead — now it's just one dose and I'm feeling great. Heart health is incredibly important to me.
The best antioxidant from olive oil in one capsule.
Love the product. Easy to take and doesn't upset my tummy at all. I have Crohn's — it's hard to find supplements that don't bother me.
The packaging is ingenious and brilliant. The capsule itself is beautiful to look at — those greens are part of the polyphenols it contains.
Made me a believer. Great product and great service.
Recommended by doctors.
For patients exploring options before — or alongside — statins, a clinical daily dose of hydroxytyrosol is one of the few interventions with EFSA-recognized validation.

After my father's sudden heart attack, I became obsessed with finding a real, natural way to protect against what we can't always see coming. Hydroxytyrosol is the most-studied olive polyphenol in the world — and the only one EFSA recognized for cardiovascular benefit. Olivea exists to make that science accessible, every day.
Common questions.
Is this safe to take with statins?
Olive polyphenols are food-derived and have no documented interactions with statin medications. As always, consult your doctor before starting any new supplement, especially if you're on prescription medication.
Is hydroxytyrosol safe for long-term daily use?
Hydroxytyrosol is among the most well-tolerated compounds in nutrition research — it's a food-derived molecule the EFSA officially recognized as safe at therapeutic doses. Studies have followed daily supplementation for 6+ months with no reported adverse effects in healthy adults.
Can I take Olivea with other supplements?
Yes. Olivea pairs well with most daily supplements — omega-3s, multivitamins, fiber. Hydroxytyrosol is a food-derived polyphenol with no documented supplement interactions. If you're on prescription medication, consult your doctor first.
How is this different from taking olive oil?
A tablespoon of high-quality olive oil contains roughly 2–3 mg of hydroxytyrosol. Each Olivea capsule delivers 20 mg in a concentrated daily dose — 4× the EFSA threshold — without 120 calories of fat. The cap-in-cap design preserves the oil matrix the molecule needs to absorb properly.
How long until I notice anything?
EFSA's claim requires daily consistency at 5 mg or above. Most documented effects on blood markers appear in studies after 4–12 weeks of consistent intake.
Where is it sourced?
Greece. From early-harvest Koroneiki olives in Messinia, selected for ultra-high-phenolic content. Lab tested for purity and potency, every batch.
