For thousands of years, sage (Salvia officinalis) has been treasured in traditional medicine. Ancient civilizations believed it could sharpen memory, soothe pain, calm inflammation, and support longevity. Today, modern research is beginning to confirm many of the benefits herbalists have known all along—though sage should never be considered a cure for medical diseases, it does contain powerful natural compounds that support health in meaningful ways.
From cognitive function to joint comfort, sage has earned its place as one of nature’s most remarkable medicinal plants.
