Rosemary: Rosemarinus Officinalis

Native to the Mediterranean, rosemary is still burned in homes of students in Greece when they are preparing for exams. The active constituent, rosmaricine is anti-inflammatory and stimulating especially when applied to the skin. It strengthens capillaries, raises blood pressure, invigorates the mind and encourages a zest for life.
