That’s quite a long list! So, I wanted to find some ways to keep sage available to easily use as a medicine, and then other ways to just preserve it for use in the kitchen. *note that sage should not be used by pregnant or nursing women or by people who have epilepsy Taken internally or as a gargle or mouthwash.stimulating upper digestive secretionss.calming and stimulating the nervous system.Here are some of the issues sage has been used medicinally to treat (the short list!) Conditions Treated with Sage In fact, there was a Roman saying, “ Cur moriatur homo, cui salva crescit in horis?” – “Why dies the human when salvia grows in his garden?” It can be used internally and externally, for all sorts of maladies. The name salvia which is derived from salvare, the latin word for healing is a great indicator of its history of medicinal use. It is one of the earliest known medicinal plants, and has so many uses.
It turns out that sage is a fantastic herb to have too much of. Time to figure out what to do with sage, sage, and more sage.
After two days of trying, at 25 pence per bunch, we had one taker. Lots and lots (and lots!) of sage! I keep cutting it back, and it keeps trying to take over our whole raised bed.Ī couple of evenings ago, I cut a whole bunch off, and made little bundles of sage to sell, as I’ve seen lots of people do here. More details here.Īre you wondering what to do with sage? A couple of years ago, I planted a very small, inexpensive sage plant in the corner of one of our raised beds. I may receive a commission if you purchase something mentioned in this post.
