How Olivino Essential Can Maintain a Healthy Blood Pressure

Two of the key fruit extracts in Olivino Essential have been documented in numerous clinical trials to reduce blood pressure:  1) Grape Seed Extract, and 2) Lycopene.  This week, let’s dive deeper into Grape Seed Extract (GSE).

Grape Seed Extract and Blood Pressure

Grape seed extract is derived from the seeds of grapes (resveratrol, also in Olivino, is derived from grape skin). GSE contains potent compounds like proanthocyanidins, flavonoids, and antioxidants, which have been shown to have a beneficial impact on blood pressure regulation. Mechanisms of action are further explained below.

  • Antioxidant Effects. The proanthocyanidins in GSE can help reduce oxidative stress. Oxidative stress occurs when there is an imbalance between free radicals and antioxidants in the body, leading to inflammation and damage to blood vessels. This damage can increase the risk of hypertension. By neutralizing free radicals, GSE may help protect blood vessel walls and improve their function.

  • Improved Endothelial Function. The endothelium is the inner lining of blood vessels, and its dysfunction is a key factor in the development of hypertension. GSE may improve endothelial function by increasing production of Nitric Oxide, a molecule that helps blood vessels relax and dilate. This can lead to a reduction in vascular resistance and, subsequently, lower blood pressure.

  • Anti-inflammatory Effects. Chronic inflammation is another contributor to high blood pressure. The bioactive compounds in GSE, particularly flavonoids, have anti-inflammatory properties that may help reduce inflammation in blood vessels, improving overall vascular health.

Why the GSE in Olivino Essential is Superior

Olivino Essential contains MegaNatural-BP®, a GSE made in California from a special, patented seed blend [1]. Several factors distinguish MegaNatural-BP (MNBP) from GSE used in other dietary supplements and why it is so highly regarded:

  • Clinically Proven Formulation. As discussed above, MNBP has been shown to have beneficial effects on blood pressure in numerous clinical trials, particularly in individuals with mild to moderate hypertension. The effective dosage of GSE used in clinical studies generally ranges from 100 to 200 mg per day. Olivino Essential contains 150 mg GSE per softgel.

  • High Potency and Standardization. MNPB is standardized to contain a specific concentration of proanthocyanidins. This standardization ensures that each dose delivers a consistent and potent amount of the bioactive ingredients, maximizing its effectiveness.

  • Better Absorption and Bioavailability. MNBP is more bioavailable than GSE in other dietary supplements. This means that the body can absorb and utilize the active compounds more effectively, leading to better results. The formulation is designed to enhance the absorption of polyphenols (especially proanthocyanidins), allowing for greater efficacy in lowering blood pressure.

  • Patented and Pure. MNBP production follows strict quality control standards, ensuring that it is free from contaminants and provides a pure, effective dose of GSE. This makes MNPB GSE a reliable choice for consumers seeking a safe and potent supplement for blood pressure support. MNBP undergoes rigorous testing for purity and potency, ensuring that it contains high levels of the beneficial compounds while being free from pesticides, heavy metals, and other harmful substances.

  • No Common Additives or Fillers. Many lower-quality supplements contain fillers, artificial colors, or preservatives, which can reduce their effectiveness or cause unwanted side effects. MNBP is known for its clean formulation, a preferred choice for individuals looking an effective GSE that is also pure.


The MNBP GSE used in Olivino Essential is considered superior because of its clinically backed effectiveness, high potency, enhanced bioavailability, and the purity of the formulation. The specific benefits for lowering blood pressure, backed by scientific studies, along with its consistency in providing a potent dose, make it a trusted choice for individuals looking to manage their blood pressure naturally.
