Actually I was not in the right mood (long story) when I posted and did not like the sounds of a one man company called h2rc corporation..

but looking at it a bit more there is quite a lot to Oleuropein from other research, thanks Rich for the pub med which I usually would have checked but like I said was in a strange mood. I will get the paper and see what dose they used for mice, which is a poor indication but still an indication.. And yes I agreed with you too that many unpatentable/non synthec'able' are not studied.

Yes I will ask my friend to bring more she was told that I should take it along grape seed extract.

Oleuropein is particularly good for her2:

Menendez et al. [53] showed that oleuropein aglycone is the most potent phenolic compound in decreasing breast cancer cell viability. HER2 oncogene-amplified SKBR3 cells were ∼5-times more sensitive to oleuropein aglycone than HER2-negative MCF-7 cells.

Subsequently, Menendez et al. [54] showed that the secoiridoids deacetoxy oleuropein aglycone, ligstroside aglycone, and oleuropein aglycone, induce strong tumoricidal effects within a micromolar range by selectively triggering high levels of apoptotic cell death in HER2-overexpressing breast carcinomas. These compounds markedly depleted HER2 protein and reduced HER2 tyrosine autophosphorylation in a dose- and time-dependent manner [54].
