I usually don't leave comments on any websites but I had to leave this one because it may help someone out there. I don't take pain killer "drugs" and I learnt that sage is good for headaches. I tried it at least three times so far when I've had terrible headaches and boy is it true that it works! The headache was gone in literally less than five minutes after finishing my cup of tea! Amazing! Thank God for the healing power of herbs!

on steriods for ulcerative colitis which cause excessive sweating at night. A couple of sage tea drinks at night have made a MASSIVE difference. Having read the other benefits, it will help with the other side effects of the steriods and condition (reduced immune system, fatigue, mouth ulcers, inflamation) And all I've got to do is have a drink of tea!

I too suffer from Panic Attacks and I did not know until now that Sage would help in this to a great extent. I am going to try it out. But In my country I don't think we have the fresh stuff. I managed to get the Australia dried stuff . Can I drink it like drinking Tea. I would like to know.

Yes, you can infuse the dry leaves to make tea. Just add boiled water and cover for five minutes.( covering were preserve essential oils in the tea) Basic rule is use a teaspoon to pint for medicinal value, yet dilute to any taste level you wish with water. It can be quite strong.

This is the best thing I have ever used for IBS, mine is so bad I can't move but this works great. I buy dried sage at the mexican store for 79 cents a pack and it last for a couple weeks. I put the sage leaves about 2 pinches in hot water and let it set for 10 minutes strain it and add sweetener drink it and in 10 minutes the pain is gone.

I've got the worst case of the runs ever and was wanting to try some sage tea. From your writing it seems to cleanse the gut or alimentary canal of harmful bacteria and parasites. I'm growing sage on my window sill I know it is also known as silvia and can produce a euphoric high if inhaled rather than ingested. Than again it can produce paranoid thoughts and hallucinations so maybe best to stir clear off.

it stops vomiting immediately.
it is good for neuro problems. Good for relieving mensuration problems.
good for digestion problems.
Boil a cup of water first then put a tea spoon of sage leaves and leave on stove for one minute only then put off the stove, then leave it for 5 minutes ,sieve it and drink with or w/o sugar.
Boiling sage directly from the beginning will lose some volatile oil.

While typing this I'm chewing on fresh sage leaves.
I'm doing that after a double extraction and possibly to save myself from an eventual apical resection.
It's really calming the pain and, a good while ago, made a pretty big difference while akin on an abscess.
The idea is to chew a leave or two and keep them on the gums, moving and massaging around from time to time for a couple of minutes. (make it 20 or 30 mins )
It looks as effective as garlic but without the garlic associated pain ;)

It stops vomiting after being chewed or drunk as tea- warm.
It is good for spinal cord and for nerves.
Very good for digestion and heart burning.

I was having problems with an external candida infection, and decided to give Lady Soma a try. They have the "Lady Soma Candida Advance Cleanse". They did seem to help clear the infection up faster. It's important to attack both the candida inside and outside when you're trying to get rid of an infection.

Surprisingly, most people have candida in their systems, but don't notice any symptoms. Even if you don't end up with itching, flaking, redness, or other external systems, candida can be causing your body problems on the inside and contributing to variety of symptoms many people never guess could be from bad intestinal flora (digestive issues, skin problems, trouble concentrating, constant tiredness, anxiety, mood swings, OCD, irritability, headaches, cravings for sweets, difficulty losing weight, etc.). The Lady Soma Candida Pills are an easy way to help your body win the fight against candida and get a healthy balance of good intestinal flora back in its place. Also, for any of you trying to fight it on the outside as well as the inside, I recommend this.

I am almost 54 and have suffered from pmt all my life, with too many symptoms to mention. I started the perimenopause at 50 and felt I was going mad. I had night sweats to contend with as well as everything else that goes with it. I tried everthing on the market, nothing worked. UNTIL, one day 6 months ago i saw an article about Sage leaf pills and decided to try them. I can say this honestly that since I have taken them 4 times a day 285mg, 2 in the morning and 2 before bed, my symptoms have disappeared. I cant believe it. I feel like a totally different person. No more moods, sweats, I slep like a log whereas before i was awake half the night, I cant recommend
sage enough. I dont know if the tea is any good as i am happy enough on the pills. My skin is clear too. So many good benefits. I cant praise them highly enough, neither can my husband!

Herbal medicines have very few or no side effects, when used in
appropriate dosages. Rarely, the herb could lead to headache or a
stomach upset. Over-dose of medicines could lead to serious health
issues and even death.

I had a severe cough, much like bronchitis, had visited many doctors, specialists...2 alergists...Dr. Oz suggested anyone w/excess mucus should use Oil of Sage, I thought that was my problem all along, so I got some and used it. W/in 5 days I stopped coughing. I quit taking the sage and 5 mos later the cough is back, so I am taking Sage again and will not stop using it. Miracle drug for me.

I had the most terrible pmt throughout my life, and when the menopause started I thought I was going mad! then I read in a magazine about Sage leaf capsules, so decided to give them a try, Well I can report that I have been taking 4 capsules a day for the last 6 months and it has changed my life!! No sweats, no depression or anxiety, my teeth and gums are healthier and I now sleep like a log after having insomnia for years. I cant recommend sage leaf enough. I take 285mg rapid release capsules. I think they would be better and more convenient to take than tea. I wish I had heard about them years ago.

I have read the many reviews posted re sage and I was wondering if a doctor could advise me. I have had breast cancer twice with chemo, radio and a double mastectomy. I am on aromasin for this. For the menopause symptoms, although I am not depressed I am on efexor. I have also been diagnosed with lymphocytic colitis and am on entocort. I have heard of sage capsules to help with the many symtoms of menopause. Sleepless nights, sweating, the list goes on. I would like to go off the efexsor and my question is, can I take sage capsules with the above medications that I am on safely?
