Olive leaf extract is best known as an immune support nutrient.  Over the years I have repeatedly observed this blood pressure lowering effect in clinical practice.  I will often have people take olive leaf extract before bed to naturally boost immunity in times of need.  On a number of occasions individuals have reported lower blood pressure the next morning.  This study confirms this clinical observation.
