The therapeutic power of the rosemary plant lies in its leaves, where the active principles that give it its therapeutic power are concentrated. They can be used fresh or dried. The fresh leaves are used as a spice in various gastronomic dishes around the world. In my case, I use the fresh leaves as a spice in casseroles and vegetable stews. I also use it in the preparation of spiced rice which has a genuine nutritional value. Rosemary leaves are high in vitamins, flavonoids, minerals and polyphenols. The leaves can be eaten fresh or dried and require cooking.

Interesting post; I wasn't aware of all of the rosemary's healthy properties...
I do like the idea of having it serve as an air purifier. And then, use it as a spice!
That's natural and sustainable.
Cheers!
Yes, in addition to being an extraordinary ally in aromatherapy, it is a powerful hepatoprotector and an excellent vitalizing agent for our skin.
