The Chinese believed Sage cured sterility and the Romans believed it cured just about everything. The Latin word 'salvare' means 'heal' or 'save’. During the middle Ages, Sage was a popular ingredient of many nerve tonics and the actual herb was used to clean gums. S. officinalis (sage, garden sage, or common sage) is a perennial, evergreen subshrub, with woody stems, grayish leaves, and blue to purplish flowers. It is native to the Mediterranean region, being currently cultivated in various countries.
