Olive Leaf Extract
[edit]Fact or Fiction -----
This article leaves much to be desired. There is much content that appears anecdotal; some of which appears to be just simple generic fallacy. To wit; The first sentence:
"Olive leaf is the leaf of the olive tree (Olea europaea). While olive oil is well known for its flavor and health benefits, the leaf has been used medicinally in various times and places." Really, well known to who? I read a reference from some piece that refereed to; "Blah blah was used by Hippocrates for a remedy of blah blah" Citing unverifiable authorities may work in politics but has no relevancy in research, or journaling research.
"Natural olive leaf and olive leaf extracts (OLE), are now marketed as an anti-aging, immunostimulator and an antibiotic. " Again so what, snake oil has also been marketed for ages.
"Clinical evidence has proven the blood pressure lowering effects of carefully extracted olive leaf extracts.[1][2][3][4]" citing the first 4 ref. None of who have any initials after their name. Perhaps they are so well known they and there research does not need to be cited properly?
"Bioassays support its antibacterial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory effects at a laboratory level. A liquid extract made directly from fresh olive leaves recently gained international attention when it was shown to have an antioxidant capacity almost double green tea extract and 400% higher than vitamin C.[5] For a university; SCU; that has no Biology dept. or Medical school this does not impress me that much. Especially when I reviewed the universities publications and was unable to verify this supposed published material cited in this reference. And a search using the name and title-and the sites search function- of this pub. yielded no results: http://search.scu.edu.au/?q=Dr+Steavenson%2C+L%2C.+et+al.+Oxygen+Radical+Absorbance+Capacity+%28ORAC%29+Report+on+Olive+Leaf+Australia%27s+Olive+Leaf+Extracts&spell=1&client=scu_xhtml&output=xml_no_dtd&proxystylesheet=scu_xhtml&ie=UTF-8&access=p&lr=&num=&site=scu%7Ccourses%7Cstaff_directory&GSA-skin=
This article either needs to go, or be rewritten. ----

[edit]If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Discourse on Unified Field reconciled with General Relativity requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think that your page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
