Naming

  1. The Latin name of rosemary is Rosmarinus officinalis cineol. Rosmarinus consists of the two Latin words ros and marinus. In Latin it means "dew of the sea" or sea dew ". The plant was so named because it is found in large quantities on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea. There are several types of rosemary from which essential oils are made, such as the Rosmarinus officinalis camphor. This plant is a variety with the same effect.

Rosemary in history

  1. Rosemary has been found in tombs dating back to ancient Egypt. The Romans used rosemary leaves to keep meat from rotting. In our time we know why: rosemary prevents bacterial growth. The Romans were unfamiliar with the concept of bacteria, but they were aware that rosemary keeps the flesh from rotting. In those days it was called: rosemary keeps evil spirits at bay. In addition, rosemary has been used for improving memory. It is known that in ancient Greece, people who had to take an exam would weave sprigs of rosemary into their hair. Rosemary was also a symbol of loyalty. It was used in weddings. People in love put a branch of rosemary in the ground. If the plant took hold, it meant mutual love.

Boost

  1. In traditional medicine, rosemary oil has always been used to affect the central nervous system. For example, it works against epilepsy. You get a little boost from it. The means to do this is to take a bath with a few drops of rosemary oil. Another means is to massage the toes and feet with rosemary oil. The ends of the nerve bundles are in the toes and feet. Rosemary oil is also used to strengthen the heartbeat. The oil is also used in a slimming cure. Of all these effects, only the effect on the nervous system has been scientifically proven.

Contraindication

  1. Rosemary oil should not be used by pregnant women and babies. Use it in moderation; never more than 6 grams per person and always diluted with a base oil such as safflower oil. If you use too much rosemary (for example tens of grams daily) it can cause epileptic seizures. On the other hand, if used in moderation it can be a medicine for epilepsy because the central nervous system is activated by this herb.

Traditional use of rosemary oil

  1. Rosemary oil has been used since time immemorial to improve memory. Modern scientific research shows that both eating rosemary and sniffing the essential oil lead to memory improvement and improvement of cognitive skills in general. Today, rosemary is still used symbolically at memorial services. Modern scientific research confirms the memory-enhancing effect of rosemary oil.

Rosemary oil against fungi and bacteria

  1. Indian research from 2007 shows that rosemary essential oil is more effective against some varieties of fungi such as candida and bacteria such as the E.coli bacteria than some medicines or antibiotics. The researchers conclude that it probably makes sense to isolate the active substances from rosemary oil to make it a remedy for fungal and bacterial diseases. You could also conclude that rosemary oil is a good enough medicine in itself. Chinese research from 2007 shows that the essential oils of rosemary and clove enhance each other in effect. When these oils are mixed, they are even more effective against fungi and bacteria.

Rosemary oil memory

  1. Eating 750mg of rosemary leaf will help improve memory. Researchers from the US wrote that down in 2012. Eating 6 grams of rosemary does not lead to a much better memory. In 2003 a study was already carried out in which various groups of people took a test. Two groups of people had to sniff a little rosemary or lavender oil. It turned out that these two groups of people had better memory and generally better cognitive abilities than the groups that took this test without smelling essential oils. The active ingredient in rosemary that is good for memory is called 1,8-cineole by scientists. It is striking that another plant that is good for memory, lavender, also has this substance. Sage is also good for memory and this plant also has 1,8-cineole.
