Rosemary is a greatly valued herb that has been used since antiquity to improve and strengthen the memory. Rosemary has an anti-inflammatory effect due to rosmarinic acid and flavonoids. It is also a powerful antioxidant. Rosemary stimulates the circulation of blood to the head, improving memory and concentration. It also eases headaches and migraines. It is valued as a herb that raises the spirits and is helpful when recovering from long-term stress and chronic illness. It makes a great infusion that can be added to the bathwater to ease aching muscles or premenstrual tension. Rosemary combined with sage makes a great gargle for sore throat.
