Sage leaf has amazing health properties especially in the area of cognitive function as we age, and for women experiencing menopause and the physical changes associated with it. The beauty of it, is that it can be found growing WILD in many Mediterranean climate locations around the world.

Here are some anecdotal pieces of evidence. Please consult your Physician before trying these out! I am not licensed to practice medicine: 1. When I use milk in my coffee, sometimes I get an itch in my ears. I put a gently crushed sage leaf in and the itchy feeling is gone within seconds, truly, seconds! 2. After a dental procedure, once I was a bit dehydrated and the next morning felt the beginning of a hemorrhoid. I applied sage oil for two or three days, and the hemorrhoid was gone like magic! 3. During colds, I boil water with sage leaves in it and breathe in the steam, and it releases a lot of vitiated mucous and I immediately feel relief in the nasal passage. I let in the steam in the ear canal also. Feels so good in colds when things are inflamed.

I have three kinds of sage that I am cultivating in my garden: garden sage, pineapple sage and Mexican sage. I have not tried making teas from the fresh leaves of the first two sages. I am astounded at the health benefits. I will try at a very low dose making tea from the garden sage. Love the smell of the pineapple sage. I did not realize this guy grows so fast and wide. I have also heard any sage is good with smudging.☺️. Thanks for this wonderful video!🥰

Thanks, but WARMING the senses?... I recently learnt from Austrian TCM nutrition counsellor KZ, that Sage, as well as Peppermint, is cooling!? It sounds great though, maybe I'll take it despoíte the cooling (I have sickness and coldness)

If it mimics estrogen, should men be wary consuming it?

Hey, thanks for the video - really informative and helpful!

I just started experimenting with Sage Leaf, after one of my spirit guides suggested it to me;

So i ordered 2 pounds of organic sage leaf, the salvia officialis species.

However, there is no dosage instructions or recommendations on the bag i received, and i can't find much on google, surprisingly.

Everything i have found is showing dosage instructions under tinctures;

Now i use oblate discs to parachute my powders/medicine, they are basically food-grade rice-films that you put the powder in and wrap it up, dunk in water and then swallow and it opens/dissolves in stomach. Basically skipping the taste and eating part, and putting the herb/plant directly into your body.

I have been grinding down a tablespoons worth at a time, which measures out to roughly 3~3.2 grams according to my digital food scales, and i have been taking that once a day. Is this enough of the leaf to get any type of benefit/effect?

Mind you i am 32 year old male, about 5"9-5"10 and i weigh roughly 200lbs, which fluctuates quite often, other than that, i am quite healthy. I drink plenty of water daily, and also consume a variety of seaweeds daily.

Would you say 3 grams is a good dosage to take for daily-use to obtain the health benefits and to gain from the nutrition in this plant or would i need to take more in? Maybe 6 grams would be a better dosage?

Please let me know!

Thank you!

- oh, i wanted to add that i am also taking Blue Vervain also, another nervine tonic that i purchased along with Sage Leaf;
Hoping this will help with my nerveous system and help me chill out and calm down, as i am either very active/hyper or very tired and down;
I am taking 6 grams of the Blue Vervain as well, once daily.
I have 1 lb of blue vervain, and 2lbs of the sage.

Thank you again, am looking forwARd to hearing back from you!

God bless and take care
