Product ID: 8401510133 Origin: Salvia officinalis, 100% pure, premium-grade essential oil of Sage, extracted by steam distillation of the leaves Uses: Sage oil is capable of inhibiting fungal infections internally and externally and gives relief from fungal infections like dysentery, thrush, athlete's foot, dermatitis etc. Its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties make it useful on the skin as an anti-aging, anti-scarring and anti-spot product. It is a cholagogue, meaning it promotes the discharge of bile which can aid digestion, soothe the stomach and reduce inflammation caused by excessive acid. Like clary sage, it activates certain hormones such as estrogen which helps bring about clear menstruations and gives relief from problems like headache, nausea, weakness, depression etc. which happen during periods. Since sage is a nervous stimulant, those with a history of epilepsy or high blood pressure should avoid using it. Further, because it contains camphor and camphene, which can be toxic in nature, it should be avoided during pregnancy.
