"Sage is considered an antiperspirant and natural deodorizer that works from inside out. Sage contains tannins and volatile oils and seems to have the ability to dry up perspiration and slow excessive saliva flow. This is also helpful for reducing the heavy perspiration of night sweats and hot flashes.
Sage has been used as an old and trusted remedy for drying up breast milk when women wish to stop nursing. It has also been useful for clearing and drying mucous congestion in the nasal passages and airways of the respiratory tract.
This drying effect is also used to treat diarrhea. And it is said to promote good digestion and considered one of the best remedies for stomach issues. Sage can ease gas pains, stimulate the appetite, remove mucus in the stomach and relieve biliousness and dyspepsia so it is said to keep the stomach, intestines, kidneys, liver, spleen and sexual organs healthy.
