I don't know how it never occurred to me to tell you about sage. It has been the go to natural remedy in my family for years, and every time i read about it it is like I didn't know anything before. It's like baking soda, but I'll write about that in another post.
I personally use it for everything. every time I don't feel well, I get a sore throat, cough, a cold or I am simply sick, sage is my best friend. Even when I feel weak and tired, a cup of sage infusion, and I'm well again.
Sage boosts your immune system, is a natural antiseptic and heals inflammations. A miracle, I told you.
period cramps & girls problems:
Sage helps if you suffer from period cramps, irregular periods or menopausal symptoms. Oh, and it helps with PMS too, take a cup, everyone will be happier! (source, source)
heals inflammations:
Thanks to the carnocic acid and treterpenes (don't ask me what that is, I just tried it and it works), sage has anti inflammatory properties, which help especially in case of sore throat, or pretty much any inflammation.
antiseptic and anti-sickness:
Sage essential oil has antiseptic properties, which are useful in treating cough, colds and fever. Anti-inflammatory and antiseptic, it can heal everything.
According to historians, the name Sage comes from latin "salvare" which means "to save", "to heal". The french had it all figured out when they came up with the proverb: "who's got sage in the garden doesn't need a doctor".
I have a big sage bush in my garden, it provides me with fresh sage all year round, and it feeds the bees when blooming. If you don't want to have a plant at home, you can get dry sage, sage tisane or even fresh sage in any supermarket.
Finally, I would like to end by saying that you should simply try to have sage infusion and see if it works. Because some people react better than others, and it may not work for you. One last thing, sage seems to be a big thing in Europe, because I only found information in french and italian, very little in english. Sorry about that, and thank you google translate!
