ECOSOL
OLIVE TREE
COMPOUND

Food supplement that has a beneficial effect on the physiological well-being of the cardiovascular system.
Olive tree (Olea europaea)
From a clinical standpoint, olive leaves can be used for mild forms of hypertension, where they induce hypotension through peripheral vasodilation without causing cardiac depression. The fatty acids contained in olive extract also reduce blood viscosity and facilitate diuresis. The hypotensive effect appears 20-30 minutes after administration and gradually increases until the symptoms associated with the hypertensive state disappear.
Passion flower (Passiflora incarnata)
This plant is also often used in adults to treat cardiac erethism (palpitations and tachycardia in anxious individuals). In this respect, it has a similar use to hawthorn, with which it is often associated for its effect on the myocardium.
Hawthorn (Crataegus oxyacantha)
At the cardiac level, it increases blood flow to the myocardium and coronary arteries, resulting in improved tolerance to anoxia. The plant affects the cardiovascular system by dilating the vascular muscles, particularly the coronary arteries, thereby decreasing peripheral resistance and resulting in a hypotensive effect. Hawthorn also acts directly on the myocardium with a positive inotropic effect. Hawthorn exhibits positive inotropic and negative chronotropic properties (strengthening and slowing myocardial contractions), as well as positive domotropic (increased conductivity) and negative bathmotropic (increased excitability). In particular, the positive inotropic effect may be attributable to the inhibition of c-AMP phosphodiesterase.
Common hawkweed (Hieracium pilosella)
Diuretics increase urinary excretion. Increased urine flow causes less fluid in the blood, and this decrease, by decreasing blood volume, lowers blood pressure. Pilosella is one of the plants with the greatest diuretic effect due to the presence of umbelliferone. It acts directly on the renal tubules, where it stimulates the excretion of water, sodium, chloride, and nitrogenous waste, without irritating the kidneys in any way.
Fumitory (Fumaria officinalis)
This plant is almost always used for its effectiveness in treating hepatobiliary disorders. It is interesting to note, however, that Fumaria, when combined with Hawkweed and Hawthorn, also acts on the myocardium, helping to control heart rhythm disturbances with alternating tachycardia and bradycardia caused by nervous system lability.
