In herbal medicine, Rosemary is widely used. Its flowering tops offer a powerful essential oil but here it is its young shoots that interest us. From them, we obtain a concentrated macerate that is liver detoxifying, protective, stimulating the bile ducts and the nervous system.

Rosemary bud macerate will be very suitable for situations of hepatitis, fatigue, intoxication, chronic allergies and reduced libido. Latin name: Rosmarinus officinalis. Part used: young shoots.

Main properties

  • hepato-biliary stimulant, general detoxifier, hepatoprotector :

    rosemary is the liver plant par excellence. It exerts a protective, regenerating, depurative and detoxifying action. It also turns out that the buds and young shoots have a much greater hepato-protective activity than the whole plant. It is also a general detoxifier of the body. It increases the activity of the gallbladder by stimulating the production of bile (choleretic) and its evacuation (cholagogue). It is of interest in all disorders linked to liver overload or insufficiency, and promotes fat metabolism. It therefore helps lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels, stimulate the immune system, etc. It is also interesting in cases of gallstone lithiasis, but should be used at low doses in the event of an attack.

  • anti-oxidant :

    in addition to detoxifying the body, Rosemary bud macerate fights against the formation of free radicals. It thus combats the risks of cellular oxidation, guaranteeing proper functioning of the organs.

  • tonic, adrenal stimulant :

    rosemary bud macerate has a toning action on 2 levels: on the one hand it allows you to regain energy thanks to its detoxifying function, and on the other hand stimulates the adrenal cortex. It is therefore a nervous rebalancing and anti-senescent used in cases of overwork, to stimulate cerebral activity, or in sexual anomalies, whether female or male.

  • antiallergic, digestive protector :

    in addition to being hepatoprotective, Rosemary bud macerate repairs the intestinal mucosa. It stimulates cell renewal and helps reduce permeability. It thus combats malabsorption, is useful for chronic intestinal disorders, and fights against food intolerances and allergies. It acts as a desensitizer in the case of repetitive allergies, generally caused by an overload of the liver and a weakness of the intestinal mucosa.

  • circulatory, antisclerotic :

    it helps reactivate capillary circulation in the extremities in cases of predisposition to thrombosis. It also has an anti-coagulant action and increases the production of red and white blood cells. Finally, it fights against sclerosis of the vessel walls and promotes better venous return.

  • Rosemary bud macerate is a herbal food supplement. It does not replace a varied diet and a healthy lifestyle. It is important to keep it out of the reach of children and not to exceed the recommended daily dose. Dosages must be adapted for young children.
