Olive trees are extremely resistant to disease. This fact led early 20th Century researches to isolate oleuropein, the active bug-buster in olive leaf extract.

Olive leaf extract is highly effective against bacteria, viruses and various fungal infections. However it does not affect friendly intestinal flora--unlike many antibiotics. I get my olive leaf extract from Amazon; they've got an extensive array of natural supplements, and most are inexpensive even with shipping factored in.

I buy colloidal silver elsewhere (at Herbal Healer Academy). Check out Luella's fine article on silver here:

Silver works like this: each micro-particle of silver generates a positive electrical field. When that field passes through an invasive microbe, it shuts down that organism's ability to absorb oxygen. Thus the bacteria, virus or fungus suffocates and dies. Your friendly probiotics use a different way of getting their oxygen, and so the silver doesn't affect them.

Words of caution: If you start taking either or both the olive leaf and silver to ward off ebola, you may run into complications if you have any existing condition. For example, when an undetected candida infection suddenly gets blasted by these two powerful bug-busters, you may experience a die-off reaction: skin rashes, fever, constipation, diarrhea, etc. If that happens, cut back on the bug-busters or discontinue for a day or two. Keep your body flushed out with plenty of pure water, and start taking a liver tonic like essiac or milk thistle...and beta glucans for your immune system.

If you don't see a naturopath or herbalist, you are stuck being your own doctor. Watch what you eat, watch what you drink, and pay attention to everything your body tells you.
