Olive trees are one of the oldest trees known to man, and one of the earliest trees cultivated in the world, being grown before written language was invented. Our best guesses are that it was a native of Asia Minor and spread through Palestine, Syria and Iran to the Mediterranean region about 6 000 years ago. Olives spread from the early Greeks to the Romans, and wherever the Romans moved, conquering new regions, the olive tree found a new home too. Maybe this is how olive branches have become a symbol of peace, as the new Roman colonies were given olive trees after being conquered. Greek athletes were also rubbed with olive oil, to prevent damage to their skin during competition and to protect them from the sun. Hippocrates believed and taught that olive oil was useful for many physical and even some mental ailments. Olive oil is now the most famous oil in the world, with Spain being the largest producer.
Long use of Oleuropein from Olive Leaf as Cardioprotective and antioxidant (from ancient times, it was observed how tea done with Olive leaves had beneficial effects).
There is a EFSA approved health claim on these olive oil polyphenols (Commission Regulation (EU) 432/2012):

In order to bear the claim information shall be given to the consumer that the beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 20 g of olive oil
