Did you know this about Rosemary?

The name “rosemary” is derived from Latin, and means “dew of the sea”—appropriate because the herb thrives in the dry climate and salty sea spray of the Mediterranean shores. Its pungent minty/evergreen flavor is a favorite in Italy and Provence, especially with poultry and pork and in dishes simmered with wine, olive oil and garlic. Its high place in the world’s most romantic
cuisines is no surprise when one considers the effects of its essence on the human mind. Rosemary is beneficial for the mind and the body. It stimulates the heart and brain, helping to improve vitality and memory, and may help to fight afternoon fatigue. Rosemary is credited with arousing ambition and drive, balancing intense emotions and controlling mood swings, and
can also help to prevent some vasoconstrictor headaches because it can help keep blood vessels
dilated. It aids in digestion and contains a high amount of antioxidants which researchers believe
may help to slow the aging process...so, if you want to stay young and vibrant, eat rosemary and
other herbs and spices on a regular basis.
