Moore River Olives. The Olive Tree & Allergies

Friday 6th August 2010, my daughter Isabella tested negative to the “Olive tree” allergen. She has finally outgrown one of the many allergies she endures. We could go near olive trees, but she could never touch them. Years ago we gave the girls, Olive Leaf Extract, and they both had an allergic reaction to it. I am married to an Italian man so so can see the importance of the olive in our family. Preparing foods with pure olive oil never affected her, just the leaf, but canola oil disrupts her wellbeing! Go figure that one out. We only use olive oil in our house. I couldn’t imagine being allergic to the Moore River region-the largest Olive producing region in Western Australia and where our holiday home is located.
