A Note on Sage

A well known savory herb for flavoring meals, sage has been used traditionally to address symptoms of sore throats (try drinking sage tea), and is effective when used in steam inhalation for respiratory problems, including bronchitis, congestion and sinusitis. Approved in Germany for those troubled by excessive perspiration, herbalists commonly recommend sage for menopausal women troubled with night sweats.

Try Miso Pate, featuring the fresh taste of sage.

I love the flavor of sage and use it often in cooking. I have heard that it has anti-inflammatory properties and may enhance memory. I wonder if these benefits apply only when used in steam inhalation therapy and tea, or if they can be derived from using sage as a seasoing in recipes.
