Sage is an excellent and safe natural disinfectant. Most of it's antimicrobial properties are attributed to the volatile oil thujone.
Sage tea was and still is primarily used as a gargle for sore throat and an aid to digestion. This classic culinary herb has a long tradition of healing and treating digestive ills.
 Personal Experience: Sage in the garden is a gift that keeps on giving. Until I started learning about and growing herbs, sage was relegated to turkey stuffing. Now I still use this amazing herb in cooking, but have expanded to using it in hair and scalp care, in body powders and deodorants, and a sure fire cure for a cold. Sage essential oil is a mainstay of my medicinal oils, and finds it way into many of my blends for body care. Using sage to darken greying hair comes down to us from the gypsies, and I can personally attest to the fact that it works. Sage also leaves the hair feeling soft and shiny, and the scalp invigorated.You could devote an entire garden to all the different varieties, my favorites include Salvia officinalis , common garden sage, and S. sclarea, Clary Sage.

 Three types of sage oil are commonly sold: Dalmatian (Salvia officinalis), Spanish (Salvia lavandulaefolia) and clary (Salvia sclarea). Each has a unique fragrance and the oils are not interchangeable in aromatherapy. Dalmatian sage oil has the characteristic aroma of the herb that is recognizable as 'sage' to most of us. Sage oil is occasionally used in perfumery in herb-type, spicy, and masculine scents. Learn More |

 Salvia, is from the Latin salvare, to save. Sage was a sacred ceremonial herb of the Romans and was associated with immortality, and was also said to increase mental capacity. The Greek Theophrastus classified sage as a "coronary herbe", because it flushed disease from the body, easing any undue strain on the heart. In the middle ages, people drank sage tea to treat colds, fevers, liver trouble, epilepsy, memory loss and many other common ailments. Sage was held to be a major medical herb by the French, because of it's anti-bacterial properties.
Sage has also been used as a beauty aid. Early Greeks drank, applied or bathed in sage tea. Turkish women used sage as a natural hair dye for gray hair, and it still recommended for use in dark hair. |
