Properties The volatile oil of sage is responsible for its distinctive aroma and its medicinal effects. Many constituents of the oil, including alpha-thujone, beta-thujone, camphor and cineole plus tannins, rosmarinic acid and flavonoids variously provide Sage's antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral properties. The benefits of Sage for excessive perspiration are confirmed by clinical trials, though the particular constituents responsible have not yet been identified.
SAGE LEAF Originating from the Mediterranean, Sage - Salvia officinalis - is one of the oldest medicinal as well as culinary plants. It can now be found growing in North America and some of the sunnier spots of British gardens. Its traditional medical uses are as diverse as antiseotic mouthwash, a gargle for sore throats, indigestion, excessive sweating, rheumatism, excessive menstrual bleeding, and to cease milk production in nursing mothers. Externally, it has been applied to sprains, ulcers, swelling and bleeding.
