There are more than two dozens of antioxidants presented in rosemary oil. Most antioxidants get deactivated after neutralizing a free radical. The antioxidants of rosemary are really unique and can neutralize multiple number of free radicals. Thus their lifespan is much longer. Some of the key health benefits have been listed below:
Function:
1.Rosemary oil serves as an excellent nerve and brain tonic and improves memory skills and concentration. Moreover, it relieves pain associated with menstrual cramps, rheumatism, arthritis and migraines.
2. As better antioxidant than VE, it is widely used in medicine, cosmetics, food, fragrance, perfume, shower gel, shampoo, soap and air fresheners.
3. It is well known for slowing down age-related changes in skin such as wrinkles and dark spots and sagging skin.Massaging with warm oil replenishes the scalp or skin with much-needed moisture and is effective for dry and flaky scalps.
4.Rich in vitamins, dietary fibers and various minerals like calcium, iron, it can treat poor circulation and digestive imbalances.Rosemary oil can be used as a mouth wash, removing bad breath by killing the odor causing bacteria.
5. On regular intake, it can promote the activities of enzymes that flush out of toxic substances and improve the functioning of the kidneys, reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
6.Last but not least, it contains two antioxidants- caffeic acid and rosemarinic acid, whose anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative properties can curb the growth of cancerous cells and reduce the chances of leukemia, breast cancer, colon cancer and skin cancer.
