Sage Elixir
Ah….humble garden sage, aka Salvia officinalis. Her virtues and variety of applications is vast. She is a pungent, warming, and stimulating herb that circulates the blood to all parts of the body which can be particularly supportive during times of fever and congestion. When dampness and mucous goes into overdrive, sage is the plant to reach for. Sage also contains antiseptic and antifungal properties that can be particularly useful when faced with strep throat and candida by simultaneously providing instant relief, but also acting on the infection itself.
Combined with her anti-inflammatory and anti-spasmodic nature, sage can also provide comfort when dealing with an unrelenting and irritating cough. Note - sage on its own may not be the best option if your cough and mucous membranes already feel excessively hot and dry. You may want to consider pairing with moistening herbs such as Mullein to bring balance - a classic balancing herb for sage.
The anti-spasmodic and blood circulating powers of sage mentioned above also contribute to her reputation as a women’s ally, supporting the body through menstruation and menopause. Her ability to bring warmth to the uterus can provide pain relief and also support the release of menstrual blood with efficiency and less spasm and inflammation.
And as if that wasn’t enough, sage has also been shown to improve cognitive function such as memory retention and improve irritability in individuals suffering from dementia and Alzheimers.
