FRESH ROSEMARY OIL
Overview:
Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) is widely used as a spice whencooking, especially in Mediterranean dishes. It is also used forits fragrance in soaps and other cosmetics. Traditionally, rosemaryhas been used medicinally to improve memory, relieve muscle painand spasm, stimulate hair growth, and support the circulatory andnervous systems. It is also believed to increase menstrual flow,act as an abortifacient (causing miscarriage), increase urine flow,and treat indigestion. Almost none of these uses have been studiedscientifically in humans. However, one study in humans found thatlong term daily intake of rosemary prevents thrombosis.
In the lab, rosemary has been shown to have antioxidant properties.Antioxidants can neutralize harmful particles in the body known asfree radicals, which damage cell membranes, tamper with DNA, andeven cause cell death. Also in the lab, rosemary oil appears tohave antimicrobial properties (killing some bacteria and fungi intest tubes). It isn''t known whether rosemary would have the sameeffect in humans.
Indigestion
Rosemary leaf is used in Europe for indigestion (dyspepsia) and isapproved by the German Commission E, which examines the safety andefficacy of herbs.
Muscle and Joint Pain
Applied topically (to the skin), rosemary oil is sometimes used totreat muscle pain and arthritis and to improve circulation. It isapproved by the German Commission E for this purpose. However,there is no scientific evidence that it works.
Alopecia
Historically, rosemary has been used to stimulate hair growth.Rosemary was used in one study of 84 people with alopecia areata (adisease in which hair falls out, generally in patches). Those whomassaged their scalps with rosemary and other essential oils(including lavender, thyme, and cedarwood) every day for 7 monthsexperienced significant hair regrowth compared to those whomassaged their scalps without the essential oils. But the study wasnot well designed, and it is impossible to say whether rosemarycaused the hair growth.
Neutralize Foodborne Pathogens
Several studies show that rosemary inhibits foodborne pathogenslike Listeria monocytogenes, B. cereus, and S. aureus.
Improve Memory or Concentration
Rosemary is often used in aromatherapy to increase concentrationand memory, and to relieve stress. One study suggests thatrosemary, combined with other pleasant smelling oils, may lowercortisol levels and help reduce anxiety. Another study found thatthe use of lavender and rosemary essential oil sachets reduced testtaking stress in graduate nursing students.
