SAGE LEAVES
Sage leaves (Salvia officinalis) offer significant health benefits, including reducing menopause symptoms like hot flashes, improving cognitive function/memory, lowering "bad" LDL cholesterol, and supporting oral health due to antimicrobial properties. Rich in antioxidants, sage is used for anti-inflammatory purposes, digestive issues, and in teas or gargles to treat sore throats.
