What is rosemary and what are its benefits

1. What is

Rosemary is a shrub of the Lamiaceae family and the genus Rosmarinus. It is also known as tansy and sea dew. Its origin is in some Mediterranean coastal areas in Europe and northern Africa, and it was introduced to my country a long time ago. It prefers a relatively warm growing environment, but if it grows in Taiwan and other regions, its growth is relatively slow.

It can usually grow to about 2 meters, with cylindrical stems and old branches, and the bark appears to be a darker gray. The leaves usually have short petioles or are sessile and are 1-2.5 cm long. It usually blooms in November. The corolla is very short, less than 1 cm, and is blue-purple.

2. What are the effects

1. Relieve headaches: Because it has a very unique fragrance, it can relieve headache symptoms. Especially when people are under stress, they usually feel dizzy and have headaches. At this time, rosemary can be used to relieve the symptoms. In addition, it can help blood circulation in the scalp and has a certain refreshing effect.

2. Beauty and skin care: Rosemary contains relatively strong antioxidants, so it can better tighten the skin and prevent aging. In addition, it has a conditioning effect and can stimulate the human brain nervous system, so it can also improve memory and avoid lack of energy.
