White sage: the virtues of this ancestral medicinal plant

Among the approximately nine hundred species of sage in the world , white sage is today one of the most sought after and used, and for good reason... Rich in essential oil, it is the most aromatic variety, and it is for this reason that it is recognized for its therapeutic virtues .

White sage contains terpenes , molecules with pleasant scents and antiseptic and antibacterial properties. This is why we find this plant in the composition of many medical treatments targeting the nervous system, the digestive system or even the ENT sphere.

But that's not all: it also contains natural plant hormones , which explains its use in gynecology, to soothe painful periods for example.

Finally, we find eucalyptol, a very effective component for clearing the bronchi and soothing sore throats and colds.

We therefore note here that the medicinal virtues of sage are based on recognized pharmacological compounds.
