Rosemary - Anti-Inflammatory & Mental Health Aid
Information
Rosemary tea offers benefits like boosting memory and focus, improving digestion (reducing gas/bloating), reducing stress, and providing antioxidants, anti-inflammatory compounds, and potential blood sugar regulation, thanks to compounds like rosmarinic and carnosic acid that support brain health, circulation, and gut function. It's also used for colds, menstrual relief, and supporting the immune system.
3 teaspoons for 10 minutes in 1 cup of hot water, and 1 tsp honey (optional).
Rosemary has gained a reputation as being unsafe to take in pregnancy but in fact there is no evidence that it will cause harm to the baby or mother and in fact when very large amounts have been given to pregnant rodents in tests it has not caused any harm. Rosemary is safe to take whilst breastfeeding and may in fact benefit the baby as the oils will pass through the milk and can be nice and calming to the gut.
It is recommended not to take strong medicinal teas or extracts of Rosemary at the same time as taking iron supplements as studies have shown that it does significantly decrease the absorption of iron (only if taken simultaneously).
