Viridian Organic Sage 400mg

Viridian Organic Sage 400mg is a certified organic herbal supplement providing 400mg of pure sage (Salvia officinalis) leaf per capsule. Sage is a perennial aromatic herb from the mint family (Lamiaceae) with a rich tradition of use in both culinary and medicinal contexts across Mediterranean and Northern European cultures for centuries. Medicinally, it has been particularly associated with women's health, cognitive support, and oral and digestive health.

Sage leaf contains a diverse array of bioactive compounds including rosmarinic acid, carnosic acid, ursolic acid, flavonoids, and monoterpenes such as thujone and camphor. Collectively these compounds give sage its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and hormonal-modulating properties. Rosmarinic acid is a potent polyphenolic antioxidant that protects cells from oxidative damage and has been studied for its anti-inflammatory effects.

In women's health, sage has a long traditional use for reducing excessive sweating and managing menopausal hot flushes. Clinical research has supported these applications, with sage leaf extract shown to significantly reduce the frequency and intensity of hot flushes in menopausal women. This is attributed to sage's phytoestrogenic activity and its effects on the thermoregulatory centre in the hypothalamus. For women experiencing menopausal sweating in particular, sage is among the most traditional and researched botanical approaches.

The organic certification ensures the sage is grown without synthetic pesticides and harvested to maintain its full phytochemical richness. Contains 100% active ingredients, no artificial additives, and is suitable for vegans. Produced in the UK to Viridian's ethical standards.
