Rosemary

Rosemary is an ingredient that adds a fragrant, savory note to dishes. Some people claim that rosemary can help reduce muscle pain, boost the immune system, and improve memory. However, it can interact with some medications.

Rosemary is a fragrant evergreen herb native to the Mediterranean. It is used as a culinary condiment, an ingredient in perfumes, and for its potential health benefits. Like oregano, thyme, basil, and lavender, rosemary is a member of the mint family Lamiaceae.

People typically prepare it as a whole dried herb or a dried powdered extract or make teas from fresh or dried leaves.

The herb has been hailed since ancient times for its medicinal properties. Traditional uses of rosemary include helping alleviate muscle pain, improving memory, boosting the immune and circulatory system, and promoting hair growth.
