Salvia officinalis
Recent studies are beginning to indicate that sage leaves can help lower and control blood sugar levels. As with many of the herbs I've profiled, this one is another anti-inflammatory with lots of antioxidants. You even find it in mouthwashes for gingivitis and cold sore medication. They say it can also help reduce hot flashes.
And as a spice, you'll recognize its distinct scent and addition in Poultry Seasoning.
