Sage Herb

Sage herb. The leaf is used to make medicine. There are many species of sage. The two most common species are common sage (Salvia officinalis) and Spanish sage (Salvia lavandulaefolia).

Sage is used for Alzheimer disease, diabetes, high cholesterol, and symptoms of menopause.

Sage is a herb with antioxidants, vitamins and minerals that may help oral health, memory, blood sugar and cholesterol.

Salvia officinalis has been used since ancient times for treating snakebites, increasing women’s fertility, and more. The Romans referred to sage as the “holy herb,” and employed it in their religious rituals. Theophrastus wrote about two different sages, a wild undershrub he called sphakos, and a similar cultivated plant he called elelisphakos.
