Sage officinalis must be used with extreme caution as it is very toxic because of its tuyona content.
The esclarea sage is not toxic as it has esters instead of ketones (tuyona). Its scientific name comes from “salvare”, which means “save”.
The name of “esclarea” comes from the Latin “clarus” (clear), applied to sage for its usefulness for those with tired eyes or blurred vision.
Its helpful properties related with menstruation and female disorders have been verified in many scientific works.
The nervous system has been shown to be affected by the phases of the moon.
It is known that the full moon influences people with psychological disorders negatively.
Sage is beneficial in cases of nervousness, stress, joint pain related with the reproductive system, sterility caused by stress, and mood changes during the premenstrual, menstrual, and menopause phases.
