Health Benefits:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n An excellent source of fiber, vitamin A, folate, calcium, iron, magnesium, manganese, and B vitamins such as folic acid, thiamin, pyridoxine, and riboflavin in much higher doses than the recommended daily requirements, plus healthy amounts of vitamin C, vitamin E, thiamin, and copper. Sage can increase recall abilities and memory retention in subjects. It's an effective brain booster. The anti-inflammatory qualities of sage extend to health issues such as arthritis and gout, as well as general inflammation of the cardiovascular system, which can result in heart disease and increased blood pressure. The flavonoids and phenolic compounds found in it are responsible for these beneficial effects. Antioxidant compounds found in sage, such as rosmarinic acid, luteolin, and apigenin, can all work to neutralize free radicals and prevent them from creating oxidative stress in the heart, organ systems, skin, joints, muscles, and even the brain. It also can treat Alzheimer. It's also known by its ability of immune system strengthening. One of the most overlooked benefits of sage is actually its superior level of vitamin K, an essential vitamin for the body that isn't found in many common foods. Vitamin K is a crucial element in developing bone density and ensuring the integrity of our bones as we age. If you suffer from early signs of osteoporosis or have lived a rather nutrient-poor, sedentary lifestyle, your bone health is likely low. Adding sage leaves to your diet can increase your vitamin K levels significantly, as a single service has 27% of your daily recommended intake. Sage is effective against certain skin conditions, including eczema, psoriasis, and acne. These unsightly blemishes can be quickly soothed and their appearance can be reduced gradually if you regularly apply sage to the inflamed or affected area. It appears to regulate and inhibit the release of stored glucose in the liver, preventing major fluctuations of blood sugar, which can help to prevent the onset of Type 2 diabetes, or at least manage the condition if it has already manifested as it contains certain extracts and chemicals that mimic the drugs typically prescribed for managing diabetes. The rosmarinic acid found in sage acts as an anti-inflammatory agent in many parts of the body, even in the stomach, where it prevents gastric spasms and can significantly lower the occurrence of diarrhea and gastritis for patients suffering from the uncomfortable and embarrassing conditions. Adding it to your meals can get your entire digestive process back on track and reduce inflammation throughout the gut.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Sage is a very attractive plant, and sage leaves add a rich flavor to meats and stuffing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":52708,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[47,51,267,130,131,48,266],"product_tag":[156,270,136,137,71,272,72,1401,1402],"yst_prominent_words":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-3384","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-plants","7":"product_cat-plant-themes","8":"product_cat-kitchen-herbs","9":"product_cat-medicinal-plants","10":"product_cat-mediterranean-plants","11":"product_cat-plants-types","12":"product_cat-herbs","13":"product_tag-herbs","14":"product_tag-kitchen-herbs","15":"product_tag-medicinal-plants","16":"product_tag-meditteranean-plants","17":"product_tag-plants","18":"product_tag-plants-for-health","19":"product_tag-plants-types","20":"product_tag-sage","21":"product_tag-salvia-officinalis","23":"first","24":"outofstock","25":"shipping-taxable","26":"product-type-variable","27":"has-default-attributes"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mashtalegypt.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/3384","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mashtalegypt.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mashtalegypt.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mashtalegypt.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3384"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mashtalegypt.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/52708"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mashtalegypt.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3384"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mashtalegypt.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=3384"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mashtalegypt.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=3384"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mashtalegypt.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=3384"},{"taxonomy":"yst_prominent_words","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mashtalegypt.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yst_prominent_words?post=3384"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
