What does rosemary help with?

After making its way to the modern kitchen, rosemary has become a crucial component of many spice blends. Its culinary usage is no doubt remarkable, but did you know that this herb also offers mind-blowing health benefits? From boosting memory and concentration to alleviating pain in joints and muscles, rosemary is nothing lesser than a magic wand. Let’s take a deeper dive into the amazing rosy world!

What Is Rosemary and How Does It Taste Like?

Before jumping on the benefits listwagon, it’s essential to understand what rosemary exactly is. So let’s devise some key points:

  • Rosemary belongs to the mint family.
  • The plant is native to Mediterranean countries like Spain, Italy & France.
  • It possesses needle-like leaves with an evergreen aroma.
  • Its taste profile includes strong pine flavor with hints of lemony camphor.

Being such an intense herb definitely means less is more in terms of quantity for recipes.

Mental Benefits

People tend not to remember everything they learn or experience over time(hopefully I’m not alone here), however in studies conducted by Mark Moss at Northumbria University Participants breathed vapor from either rosemary oil or room air into their noses starting 10 minutes before testing was done. Those who received the aromatherapy treatment performed better on both quality and speed tests afterward. Apparently smelling fresh herbs can help sharpen your skills.

Other mental benefits provided by rosemary include reducing anxiety levels along with treating symptoms related to depression.

Digestive System Problems

A great percentage of people across every part of our planet fights digestives issues most commonly lower inflammation which causes stomach ulcers while others(Guilty.) constantly think burps are real life nomads determined for success traveling through intestines like national geographic explorers (check facts) , blowing whistles at every corner they encounter. If you face similar digestive problems, rosemary should be your go-to herb without any second thoughts.

It helps reduce the symptoms of indigestion, bloating and flatulence along with its other antibacterial properties that help prevent various types of infections like H-pylori and ulcerative colitis.

Thanks to the plant’s amazing anti-inflammatory components(aka sniffing heroes), which are capable enough of relieving pains in joints as well as muscles. Just rub some dried/ fresh leaves or apply rosemary essential oil directly on the affected area(and don’t forget oticoodyourself)to experience yourself!

Period Pains

PMS(Premenstrual syndrome) is quite common among women these days leaving them hopeless, snacks-packed and Netflix-bound once a month.But what exactly causes this unbearable inconvenience? Men will never know (YEET!) but at least we have an answer here: prostaglandins! These involuntary chemicals increase cramps by contracting uterine walls while decreasing blood flow causing excessive discomfortsome periods.

Maintaining Oral Health

Your smile does affect everyone you meet(don’t exempt me!). And bad breath could really ruinthat chemistry between Harry Potter and Hermione Granger! Just chewing on raw rosemary stem/toothpick or gargling a mixture containing pure EO & water may help remove bacteria from your mouth and leave your breath smelling refreshing.

Dandruff And Hair Loss

Are you tired of finding “hairballs” around the house(speaking to hairy pet owners) or are having troubles dealing with dandruffed scalp? You need not worry anymore. This miracle plant possesses antifungal properties capable enough of fighting fungi responsible for dandruff and other scalp issues(It could bite ogres too, but haven’t been tested yet).

The essential oil extracted from rosemary leaves increases blood flow in the scalp improving hair growth thus reducing hair fall(howdy bald-head!?). For best results mix up some drops of RO with a carrier coconut/olive oil and apply it on your follicles twice a week(just take off those wigs already)

Final Thoughts
