What it is

Sage (Salvia Officinalis) is a nootropic & women's health supplement. Common sage (Salvia officinalis) is a culinary herb with evidence for memory/attention and for reducing menopausal hot flushes. Used in adult dosing protocols in India and internationally, it is sold as a single-ingredient supplement.

How it works

Its rosmarinic acid and terpenes inhibit acetylcholinesterase (boosting acetylcholine for memory) and exert oestrogen-modulating and antimicrobial effects. Effects are dose-dependent and typically measurable within 2-6 weeks.

Who should take it

Avoid / careful

Avoid high doses of thujone-containing sage in pregnancy and epilepsy. May lower blood sugar; mild interaction with sedatives.
