Summary: One of the more popular herbs in the Middle Ages through 18th century, sage has drifted into lesser use as more delicate flavors grew more popular. The evergreen herb is enjoying a resurgence of late, in part based on its many uses and benefits. Sage can be used to flavor and preserve nearly any meat or cheese, and is often used in soups and salads as well. Medicinally, it has been shown by modern research to prevent blood clots from forming, and has a long tradition of healing and treating digestive ills.
Sage Leaf & Menopause: Sage leaf has been shown to be effective in alleviating the following symptoms of menopause:
- Anxiety
- Fatigue
- Night sweats
- Hot flashes
Sage leaf can help to regulate your mood by reducing the severity of mood swings. Combining sage leaf with alfalfa can enhance its effects.
Precautions: Thujone, a volatile oil in common sage, is hallucinogenic, addictive, and toxic when taken in extreme excess. The plant and tea made from it should be avoided by pregnant women. Its long term use is not recommended.
Suggested Use: Shake well. Twelve years and older, add 1-4 ml (15-60 drops) to a small amount of water and drink. Use 3-4 times daily as needed. To evaporate alcohol before drinking, add to a cup of heated water (no microwave!) and allow to sit for ten minutes before drinking. If an herb is appropriate for children, herb doses for children under 12 are typically 1/2 the adult dose; adjust by weight accordingly or check with a qualified practitioner.
