Description

Our organically crafted Sage Essential Oil, also called Common Sage Oil and Dalmatian Sage Oil, is steam distilled from the fresh leaves of the Salvia officinalis perennial herb native to the Mediterranean region. Also known as Garden Sage, True Sage and Culinary Sage, this herb gets its name from the Latin word salvere, which means salvation, and is best known for its therapeutic properties.

Although many Americans know Common Sage as the dried herb that gives Thanksgiving stuffing its distinctive flavor, this is a herb of ancient repute, valued as both a culinary and medicinal plant. Sage, which takes its name from Latin salvere, to save, has a long history as a medicinal plant and was listed as such in Theophratus works. It was much in evidence in Roman times, again for medicinal purposes, but was well established mainly as a culinary herb in medieval England.REPORTED BENEFITS AND USES
