Rosemary (Salvia Rosmarinus)
Type: Herb
Latin Name: Salvia Rosmarinus
A popular culinary herb, rosemary has been used in cooking, as well as traditional medicine, for thousands of years. With its high antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory compounds, rosemary offers a wide range of benefits, from treating respiratory ailments to promoting hair growth, making it a handy herb to have at home.
1. Combat gastrointestinal discomfort
Rosemary is a soothing herb that can help to relieve gastrointestinal issues such as indigestion, gas, stomach cramping, bloating and constipation. When used in cooking, rosemary can also help to stimulate appetite and support the creation of bile, which breaks down fats into fatty acids.
2. Improve brain health
Studies show that rosemary can help to prevent the death of brain cells caused by stress and brain aging. Rosemary reduces stress and anxiety by lowering cortisol, the stress hormone that puts you in a "fight or flight" mode. When you're stressed, your risk of gaining weight, and experiencing high blood pressure and heart diseases increase.
3. Boost respiratory health
With its antiseptic properties, rosemary can help to relieve throat congestion and breathing difficulties from allergies, colds, flu, respiratory infections and bronchial asthma.
4. Promote hair growth
Rosemary has been found to increase the growth of new hair in balding areas, slow down graying of hair, reduce dandruff and promote hair shininess.
