Kashrut of olive oil in herbal formula

Question:

Hi Rabbi , I’m in question about a certain product I take which is for adrenal fatigue which is a pretty serious condition , I take natural herbal formulas to help heal and combat this issue, the product I take is on of the best I see on the market, it seems they recently added olive oil to the formula wat is kashrus of this

Answer:

Without getting into the issue of kashrut of the rest of the product, regarding the olive oil itself, if it is produced in Israel there can be an issue that if Terumot and Ma’asrot (tithes that need to be taken from produce of Israel). Other than that, if the product was produced elsewhere, we can assume the olive oil is from another country and there won’t be any kashrut issues with it.
