The brand is centered around oleuropein, a compound found in the olive tree. Three shots for everyday use, before exercise, and after exercise.
Oleus is an endurance nutrition brand launched in 2022 under the name Xtract and renamed in 2024. It offers oleuropein-based shots, a polyphenol from the olive tree, organized into three stages: daily use, before exercise, and after exercise.
| Founded | 2022, under the name Xtract |
|---|---|
| Current name | Oleus, since 2024 |
| Key ingredient | Oleuropein, a polyphenol from the olive tree |
| Range | Daily Shot, Pre-Activity Shot, Recovery Shot |
For the brand, energy depends not only on the fuel you consume, but also on how your cells convert it. Oleus presents its shots as supporting mitochondrial function. To be clear: oleuropein has no authorized health claims in the European Union. These are effects claimed by the brand, not promises made by Nutri-Bay.
| Shot | Timing indicated by the brand |
|---|---|
| Daily Shot | In the morning or before a light workout |
| Pre-Activity Shot | 1 hour before a short race, 30 minutes before prolonged exercise |
| Recovery Shot | As soon as exercise ends |
An Oleus shot is not fuel: it does not replace either your carbohydrates during exercise or your recovery drink. If you want to try it, use it throughout a complete training block, not the day before a race.
For a pre-exercise supplement with better-documented effectiveness, compare it with Stamox nitrates.
