                        All About Rosemary

                        Rosemary is an aromatic herb that has been used for centuries in cooking and natural medicine. It has much research to back up its folkloric claims with antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, spasmolytic, wound healing, pesticidal, anti-diabetic, anti-depressive, stimulating and anxiolytic actions. It is a health tonic for the respiratory, cardiac, nervous, and digestive systems and also has research demonstrating capabilities as an immune stimulant, to reduce allergies, for weight control, to improve bone density, potentially cancer reducing, for alopecia, and more.

                        Rosemary Research

                        Over 160 research articles have been catalogued on rosemary. Many studies have reviewed the in vitro antimicrobial actions of the herb and its extract/oil. More studies specifically looked at antiseptic and preservative qualities. Its aroma has demonstrated stimulating and antidepressing benefits than may also help improve cognitive abilities. It has also been analyzed in its actions against cancer cells, as a pesticidal, and for skin and wound healing. Further, the plant may also helps with blood sugar levels, cardiac health, and reduced pain and spasms.
