HEALTH BENEFITS OF SAGE
Research confirms what herbalists have long known: sage is an outstanding memory enhancer.
Sage helps provide better brain function and has been used in the treatment of cerebrovascular disease for over a thousand years. Research has suggested that it may be an effective option to help treat Alzheimer`s disease.
The benefits of sage are effective for symptoms of menopause, night sweats, and hot flashes. There`s also compelling evidence that sage may provide benefits for some people with diabetes by its ability to boost insulin`s action.
