Diabetes:
A study conducted by the American Chemical
Society found that rosemary inhibits an enzyme that promotes insulin secretion.
This led researchers to conclude that rosemary could be helpful in preventing and treating diabetes.
Although some cases of diabetes can be managed with diet and exercise, many patients lack the discipline to adhere to a successful regimen. Furthermore, antidiabetic medications can be expensive and are not without side effects.
On the other hand, herbs like rosemary offer a safe and natural way to reduce blood glucose.
Anti-inflammatory: Medicinal Uses of Rosemary.
Rosemary contains high levels of phytochemicals, including gallic acid, a powerful antioxidant. Gallic acid also exhibits antifungal, antiviral, and cell-protective properties.
When fats are burned for energy, the byproducts of this process are very harmful and can damage cells and structures within our bodies. Rosemary has been found to combat this type of damage very effectively.
In addition, rosemary’s anti-inflammatory properties have been found to relieve respiratory difficulties and allergies.
Nutritious:
Rosemary is a good source of B vitamins, copper, potassium, magnesium, manganese, calcium, and iron. It is also a good source of fiber, vitamins A and E. Manganese works in conjunction with superoxide dismutase to try to prevent and protect against cell mutation.
