HEALTH REPORT
L ong used by herbalists around the world, this ancient herb is proving its worth as a modern medicine for brain health. As has been the case with many natural health products that are sold today, it was the historical use of botanicals as medicines by indigenous people and traditional healers that initially piqued the curiosity of modern scientists, and prompted them to investigate what made them work and how they could be used today. This has certainly been the case with sage. The genus Salvia, commonly known as sage, is the largest member of the Lamiaceae or mint family, which contains over 900 species throughout the world. Many species of sage, including Salvia officinalis (common sage), are native to the Mediterranean region and have been used in a variety of different countries and cultures, for both culinary and medicinal purposes.
