Sage Essential Oil (Salvia officinalis)
Sage Essential Oil has a spicy, herbaceous aroma. It has been recognized for its
ability to strengthen the senses and vital centers of the body and to support
metabolism. It is helpful for supporting the respiratory, reproductive, nervous,
and other body systems.* Most essential oils work best when blended
with each other. The right combination will enhance the effects and power of the
essential oils. For some basic "oil recipes", check out our Recipe page or visit
