Abstract

In order to evaluate the effect of olive juice on the anxiety and depression, the paper uses olive juice concentrate as the experimental material, and uses mice as the experimental subjects. Mice are randomly divided into negative, positive, high, medium and low-dose groups, administered orally for 7 days. Further, the impact of elevated plus maze test, the opening acts test and forced swim test was observed on the mice. The experimental results show that under conditions of the sub-acute administration, olive juice can not only induce anti-anxiety behavior in mice, but also has the potential to improve depression in mice.

Keywords: Anxiety, depression, olive juice.
