Benefits of salvia dried leaves

Salvia dried leaves have the potential of lowering blood sugar levels. Research shows that the compounds act like metrormin, a drug prescribed to diabetes patients. In addition, Salvia can improve insulin sensitivity, thus further aiding in blood sugar regulation. Salvia can also help in improving mental health in many ways. Through antioxidants present in the extract, it assists in breaking down chemical messengers such as ACH, which plays a vital role in memory retention. By extension, this assists in controlling Alzheimer’s disease and improves cognitive abilities among the elderly. The brain’s health is also improved by relieving stress and anxiety levels, which ultimately fights depression. Higher doses of Salvia dried leaves result in improved alertness, elevated moods and a deep sense of calmness and relaxation.

Usage and dosage of salvia dried leaves

The most common means of consuming salvia dried leaves is smoking. The leaves are dried and crushed into a powder that can be poured into bongs or pipes for smoking. Rolling the leaves into cigarette-like joints may lead to little or no effects. Due to irritation of lungs, some users prefer boiling the leaves instead, and consuming them inform of a Salvia tea. In this form, more properties of the herb are unlocked and offer a soothing effect. Chewing the dried leaves results in less intense effects and is a traditional means of using the leaves.

Unless processed, there is no definitive dosage amount and usage solely depends on experience and desired effects.

Taking more than the indicative amount has negative effects on the body and may induce vomiting, chills and headaches.
