Is it safe to take both olive leaf extract and grape seed extract (not grapefruit) at the same time?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

According to this page on the NIH
http://nccam.nih.gov/health/grapeseed/
The interactions of such extracts have not been studied in detail.
There doesn't seem to be very much at all yet on olive leaf extracts within the traditional science community. I found this on Drugs.com:
http://www.drugs.com/npp/olive-leaf.html
and this on the journal Phytotherapy Research.
http://blackwellpublishing.com/press/pressitem.asp?ref=1864
and this in the health library

But all these studies say there's limited if any interaction studies within herbal extracts or indeed with herbal extracts and traditional medicines.
I'm not a doctor and have no medical expertise.
