Olive Trees have been cultivated and revered for thousands of years. Indeed, among the ancient Greeks and Romans they were often considered sacred, and their creation was attributed to Athena. Even within biblical texts Olive Trees were referred to as the Tree of Life. While most attention is paid to the fruit, Olive Leaves are well known for their beneficial and medicinal qualities. They were used of old for everything from reducing fevers to correcting excessive mucus.

Modern usage of the Olive Leaf is still commonly practiced by herbalists, with common usage to treat coughs and skin problems, where it is believed to help fight infection and detoxify.

Though lacking somewhat in clinical study, some herbalists also explore the use of Olive Leaves in treating Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
