The Olive Tree of Life Occasionally we find a new product that looks as though it could be a "break through" product that will change the way we should look at supplements. d-Lenolate is one of them, offering such a wide range of benefits that the "snake oil" description is certainly going to be applied to it by the medical profession and competitors. The pharmaceutical industry will have to be more careful, because d-Lenolate is derived from years of published research by the Upjohn Company, one of the big boys in the industry. It took four years of intensive research by East Park Research laboratories to bring this product to market, and their starting point was Upjohn's work. Upjohn abandoned their research into a derivative of Olive Leaf when they were unable to produce a synthetic version that worked as effectively as the natural, and were thus unable to patent it. East Park stood back a little, and examined the potential of a product derived from olive leaf from a different perspective. Upjohn had only been able to produce a Left hand synthetic version of Calcium Elonate in their lab, and this version stuck to protein in the blood, rendering it ineffective as a killer of microbes (bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites) after only three minutes. This principle of left and right handedness applies to all synthetic versions of natural products except vitamin C, but olive leaf extract is an extreme case. The synthetic and the natural versions have identical molecular formulas but the synthetic version is a mirror image of the natural, and thus has different properties when exposed to other cells in the body. In computer terms, its "handshake" is different! d-Lenolate made by East Park Research under a Patented process appears to be a very unique product because not only it is a deadly killer of all harmful bacteria, fungi, yeasts, parasites and viruses in the body, but it does not attack the good bacteria in the gut we need for digestion - a very unusual property. In fact, it nurtures the good bacteria. This uniqueness can only be explained by human evolution - something the pharmaceutical industry is unable to replicate. While antibiotics used to be able to destroy bacteria (not viruses) it destroyed them all, good and bad alike, and thus taking antibiotics resulted in bad side effects such as leaky gut, and mutated microbes. Antibiotics also do nothing to support the immune system, the body's only sure route to a cure. What d-Lenolate is up against to obtain recognition is the large number of other olive leaf products on the market that, while effective against some bacteria, are not the right handed version. The fine difference will be lost on most buyers, and their level of disappointment in these other olive leaf products will paint them all with the same brush. But that is not something new in the Supplement industry, where synthetics and misrepresentations are the norm. For those of you who would like to know more about this fascinating story, Dr. Morton Walker has documented it all. Brian Rees Editor |
