Why should a man die while this plant grows in his garden?

Antifungal and antibacterial properties:
Sage is effective against fungi and bacteria. It is one of the few herbs that reduce perspiration. This is why it can be used for night sweats and hot flashes, especially those occurring during menopause. Sage is good for balancing hormones, making it a top recommendation for menopausal women.

Sage baths are also used to treat excessive foot sweating. Sage also acts as a stimulant, beneficial for concentration, alertness, and energy.

Sage in Cooking and Medicine
Sage is also an excellent spice, although rarely used in contemporary cooking. The most common preparations made from sage are tea, tincture, and essential oil.

Sage Tea Recipe
To prepare sage tea, pour 20 cl of boiling water over a sage leaf. Cover and let it steep for 10 minutes. The tea can be drunk or used as a gargle. The recommended daily dose is two cups. It should not be consumed for extended periods, only up to two weeks. It is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women.

Sage Tincture Recipe
To make a sage tincture, add 20 grams of chopped sage leaves to 10 cl of 70% alcohol. Let it sit in a warm place for a month. Strain and pour into a bottle. Take 10 to 15 drops of the tincture in a little water, juice, or tea three times a day.

Obtaining the essential oil
Sage essential oil is obtained by distilling the flowering plant. An important ingredient in the essential oil is thujone, which, in high concentrations, can have harmful effects on the nervous system.
