[parents4eyes]

We have been given the go ahead to try olive leaf extract, but what is the therapeutic dosage (capsules) for 95lbs? Any recommendations of brand to use or not use?

Thanks!

Thanks Priscilla. I found it. It says 3 times a day, but I think that is for much younger/smaller children. Well, that is a start at least.

Yes 500 mg 3 times a day, make sure it is standardized (20% oleuropeins) and that you give it away from probiotics. watch out for die-off symptoms the first few days. Also, some kids may be "phenol" sensitive and may need to take it with a digestive enzyme called No Phenol by Houston Enzymes or Phenol Assist by Kirkman.
