Rosemary, crushed garlic and olive oil. Make a paste and slather it over chicken, beef or lamb. Slide it under the skin of a roasting chicken. The bomb!!!!
Absolutely the comment section is just as crucial as the main video.. l have learnt so much from people’s comments especially during the onset of COVID l was mentally prepared for anything that they threw at us before it even happened..😊
I went to a Mexican restaurant once, the rice was so delicious and I could not figure out what the flavor was. My daughter and I finally picked through it enough that we found the bits of Rosemary in the rice
I add all sorts of spices and herbs to my rice for experimental and fun purposes. I added rosemary once, other time i would add lavendars and i would even tried rose water. Its fun and delicious!
In "Hamlet", one of the characters says "Here's rosemary, that's for remembrance; I pray you lord, remember." So Shakespeare knew that it helps memory. I may have misquoted as I don't have the text to hand, but the principle is clear.
Also, Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra in El Quijote de la Mancha mention the benefits from the rosemary ."Romero" in the language of Cervantes, perhaps inspired , the same than Shakespeare, by Discorides.
I put a bunch inside the bottle of olive oil for couple of weeks and drizzle over my dinner or breakfast eggs or just toast. Refreshing, revitalizing.🌷
as an herbalist i use rosemary to stimulate blood circulation in the fine vessels. feet and hands that stay cold, ( winter hands) low bloodpressure. calming and strengthening effect of the central nerve system.
Eduard. So interesting. Are you taking it as a tea? Or using the oil as a topical on the hands and feet? Would love to help a loved one with neuropathy. 😊 Thank you
@@MAK_9833 use essential rosemary oil and choose a carrier. almond, arganan, etc.oil. or make your own extract. fresh leaves in a few centimeters oil ( leave half a centimeter oil o top) in an open glass bottle. heat ''au bain marie'' a couple of hours.
@@reinier34 This method treats peripheral neuropathy. I mean rosemary leaves, meaning a large hanging of rosemary leaves on a glass of water soaked. Does this method help and also, did you use rosemary oil for fat feet?
The benefits of rosemary also have its ability to improve mood. The smell of rosemary affects certain areas of the brain and works to improve mood and relaxation.
@@beasthandler9263 interesting, I used to dislike the scent and taste. I have a huge bush in my back yard and have acquired a taste for it over time. I don't love it, but I'll take Rosemary over Sage any day.
@@beasthandler9263 i did the same thing!! The smell would give me a migraine every time the gardener would cut them until I figured out what it was and had him rip the bushes out ..migraines gone!
:) I used to hedge trim rosemary (school gardening). Once after a whole afternoon of trimming I was completely soaked in male sweat and rosemary juice and when refueling the car on the way home the serving girl was ecstatic. She said to me, "you smell SO GOOD!".
Love these little gems of knowledge, I would also add that rosemary are used in almost every fish/meat dish in the island of Crete, in Greece. Keep up the good work doc.
Also in Acciaroli in Italy, where the very pungent variety is thought to result in very high numbers of people in their 90s or 100s. Aldi has a pungent variety, Waitrose is much too mild.
I invented a Rosemary mosquito repellent that’s good for people and pets. Take a big batch of Rosemary, strip the stems, place in a blender with good ,first cold press, organic , olive oil. Blend well. Do small batches because it’s easier to blend. You will need to strain it and place the Rosemary oil in small jars. Dab on liberally. Mosquitoes won’t bite! Last a long time, if kept in a cool dark place. Also, found out it prevents fleas too. I’m sipping Rosemary tea right now, made with a couple of sprigs, in a tea ball, for a minute, in boiling water.
Was literally breaking my fast with a cup of bone broth simmered with fresh rosemary (and a touch of butter) when this popped up in my feed. One of my favorite herbs, by far.
I have made a rosemary oil to help my hair thinning and after two months of using it regularly when I wash my hair, it made amazing results. Less hair fall out and growing faster. I also made a tincture and it says it cleans your arteries and increases blood flow to the brain.
My favourite recipe (made by sweetheart) is his Roasted Rosemary Chicken with Veggies (sheet pan style). W🤩W! If I’m ever having a stressful day it is the cure all! I bet it’s because of the fresh rosemary 😉
what really gives me joy is being drawn to a particular herb and then finding your video to confirm that it is indeed beneficial to my epilepsy or any other health concerns and preventative measures. In short, you rock! Thank you Dr. Berg
I started craving rosemary, the fragrance alone makes it worth growing. I make my own breakfast sausage sometimes & rosemary is one of the herbs and spices I put it. Also use it in chicken soup and other dishes.
Thanks Dr. Berg! I began my journey of healthier eating about 4 years ago, to address blood sugar and lipids. Surprisingly my thyroid and kidney function improved, as well as my osteopenia. I also noticed that all of those 'brain farts' disappeared. Thank you for being such a wealth of information! XOX Retired R.N.
Interesting, never knew most of that information, thank you! I have always maintained that for all our health problems, there is something out there in nature to help us 🥰
I just brewed a cup of rosemary tea, it's very good! Just used it in cooking before hearing this video. Inhaling the vapor from the tea just makes me feel better.! Thanks again Dr Berg
Interesting! Unfortunately I seem to be allergic to it. Here, in Spain, they often use rosemary as skewers for making bbq kebab style meats, and it tastes heavenly ❤
@@idoflawlesshair oh that is not an allergy. I assume you do not know autopsy report and cause of death. If you know, please share it for investigation.
I have not been favorable to it's flavor in the past but my daughters put it in our herb gardens & I appreciate the aesthetic aspect & it's aromatic property. So I harvested it this fall to dry. I will start using it more in food this winter. Thank you.
You get an A+ on this video! But all your videos get an A+! Thanks, I put Rosemary oil on my scalp, I would be happy to have 1/4 of the hair I had in my prime! I had so much thick curly hair, people would ask is that a wig?
It's almost Thanksgiving, the time of year I use rosemary the most. I love the flavor it adds to my roasted chicken and rosemary/sage corn bread dressing. Counting down the days ..... 😋 I also use rosemary oil with peppermint oil, tea tree oil, emu oil, moringa oil and coconut oil on my scalp for hair growth and on my body to alleviate pain. It stimulates hair growth but it works wonders for pain!
@@suegz139 Yes, I combine them all together. However, to jump start the hair regrowth process, I used rosemary oil along with ORS fertilizing temple balm (peppermint oil works with this as well). Took about 5 days before I felt the hair starting to regrow. Later I switched to using the oils I mentioned above. Use them twice a day, morning and evening. It's important to not put these oils on scalp of healthy hair, but only on the scalp areas that are damaged. Gently rub/massage them on those areas for 30 seconds to a minute. Do not comb it through the hair and do not put too much to where it goes throughout the head and runs down your face or neck. Do not wash it out. Put it on after your daily shower/hair wash if that is when you wash your hair. Allow it to penetrate the scalp and open the pores.
I should mention that I do alternate the oils. Overtime the hair will get used to the routine so it's best to alternate. To maintain healthy hair, argan oil, aloe vera gel (from the leaf) with coconut oil or jojoba oil is very good with keeping the scalp refreshed and healthy.
@@suegz139 You're welcome! If you decide to use any essential oils, please use a carrier oil with them. Essential oils are VERY STRONG and should not be used without being diluted first (some carrier oils are olive oil, avocado oil, coconut oil, MCT oil, argan oil, jojoba oil).
Mary, infused tea helps too, just put a sprig of fresh rosemary or a tea spoon of dry rosemary, add boiling water and let it sit for 5 to 10 min and enjoy. I usually add drops of rosemary lavender oil with epsom salt in a bath…I have not had chronic pain for over 2 years now.
Take antioxidantes and antiinflamatorios ( TUMERIC), the pain happen because the person have inflammations, and this happens because of the accumulation of heavy metals and the body.
@@jeannettejeannette6061 I've heard that but wondered if it really works. I will be looking for this at my local health food store. Thank you so so much
Yes, it’s so good! I take some fresh rosemary and boil it in just water for about 10-15 minutes. As a warning, it will have your whole house smelling like rosemary! After it’s cooled down for a bit I just strain the liquid into a bottle. It’ll be a golden color. I like to put mine in the fridge until I’m ready to wash my hair. To use it I just wash my hair as usual and then use the cold rosemary oil/infused water as a rinse. Hope that helps! 😊
@@VintageMe23 Hi, I do use a carrier oil. I make a scalp oil out of jojoba oil. Add about 10 drops of rosemary essential oil, and massage in to scalp several times a week- or even daily. My bald spot completely filled in within 6 months.
@@suegz139 I apply the oil several times a week, sometimes daily. Massage a few drops ( rosemary essential oil added to jojoba oil) into scalp. Leave it on. If you wash your hair daily, fine apply it daily. Using jojoba as the carrier oil is perfect because it is not heavy, and doesn’t lead to an oily buildup. I have to add, that sometimes, not everyday, just on occasion, I add a couple of drops of the rosemary oil directly to the bald area and rub it in-without a carrier oil.
Hello Dr. Eric Berg. very beautiful topic as well as herb also..lots of plants in my garden. mesmerising smell..thank you for sharing this. happy regards.🤗
Thank you Dr. Berg for Rosemary; the hidden champion for brain health. Yes indeed, a super antioxidant that most people have overlooked. Have used it in culinary, cosmetic, and medicinal recipes extensively.
I hope you can highlight yet another great herb: sage. From time to time, I make sage tea and for me, it's one of the best herbal teas I know of. I do like rosemary tea too.
I am drinking water with rosemary tincture right now. I chopped good amount of rosemary (have a big bush in the front of the house) and put it in plain, clean vodka, had no source for pure alcohol. I let it infuse for 4 weeks and then strained it. Use about a teaspoon or two for a large glass of water, it tastes amazing.Yesterday, for my birthday I made a rack of lamb coated with finally minced rosemary, finally grated Parmesan, salt, bit of mustard and olive oil.
I make my own diy skin serum. I add cosmetic grade ascorbic acid, powdered hyaluronic acid, a touch of methylene blue, and a tiny amount of baking soda to raise the ph to tolerable levels. I found green tea extract on Amazon with only glycerine and tea, which I have started adding to the serum. I may try rosemary extract in the future. All these ingredients are water soluble, so they mix easily. I keep a pre-made two oz bottle of the solution in the fridge to delay oxidation. I just have to tweek the formula to avoid a sticky feeling on my skin. I put this on before my sunscreen for maximum protection. Although, I do make short trips outside without sunscreen, knowing that a little uv is actually good for us. My middle aged skin looks fantastic by the way. I have no visible wrinkles or sunspots, and I have a healthy glow. I must be doing something right! 😊
Dr Berg, I have been using this powerful herb for only one month and I see a big improvement on my hair and whole body. My hair becomes thicker and black again and no more bloating . I have bald head and thin hair. Dr. Berg. Ty I am a retired woman nurse from Illinois,USA
Cardinal, thanks for the prep advice: make the rosemary . garlic, olive oil paste! Brilliant. AND big thanks to Dr. Berg for one insight after another. . . POSITIVE effect on my life.
I have been experiencing severe hair loss from my thyroid acting up. I used coconut oil with rosemary oil and drunk aloe Vera juice. In two weeks my hair loss almost stopped. Thank you wonderful RU-vid doctors: Dr. Berg and Dr. Axe.
yes, rosemary is not only great for hair growth but also combat dandruff and other scalp issues. You can even apply the aloe vera gel to your scalp, it will also help and will make you hair look more shiny and beautiful. I also have a video on my channel on the topic
I love it, have fresh ones, sitting in a little water, I boil it with whole cloves, making a tea out of it with lemon wedge and a little honey OR not, I drink daily it also freshens your breath! I also use as a hair treatment with fenugreek seeds soaked in water, I notice hair fullness/ growth what seems like every 2 weeks, I track the progression with a calendar.
Yes indeed, rosemary tea is great for hair growth. Some people apply essential oil directly to the scalp, however it could be a skin irritant, so the tea would be more gentle on your skin. Interestingly I have a video on this topic on my channel
It would have been helpful to learn how rosemary is best prepared for maximum effect and whether it loses some of its potency if heated or stored for too long.
Its all here on RU-vid how to use rosemary effectively...read here and other thumbnails about the wonderful beneficial properties of using rosemary and how to make it work for you.Its all right here. Smiles!
@@lillyk2178 thx Lilly and the oil you use is plain olive oil Drop the rosemary in and leave it for ? Hours to get a rosemary oil? So you apply it I assume lightly on your skull and how long do you leave it on ?
@@raylachman8101 I don’t use olive oils as they are too thick for my hair and scalp. Just light oils like grape seed, sweet almond oil etc. there are different ways of making the oil and you can see many on lots of RU-vid channels if you search. The oils can be applied on hair and scalp, leave on for minutes before shampoo out or just apply to hair and leave in. But always do a patch test before first applications to prevent any issues since the oil is home made. But I have never had any issues.
@JJ Pesky The king of blue UTTP so, your response was to him? This is twice now that you’re all up in my comment section. Go away, you have bad vibes. Go drink some water, eat a salad, go do something....
@@jdelbrid I have a rosemary plant and cut some off , I bring the water to a boil , let it steep then drink as tea. I like to make a big batch and refrigerate. I like to mix this rosemary water with other teas as well. I hope this help, feel free to ask me any questions . :)
@@silvergoddess3362 Thanks. Last night I steamed some broccoli with about 2 teaspoons of rosemary mixed in. Afterwards I drank the remaining water and it was very good. No sweetener needed. to. Thanks for the inspiration.
Rosemary has amazing healing properties. I Use the oil for cuts & bruises, also for arthritis pain relief. It is amazing! If you have a cold sore put the oil on it, it heals way faster than it normally would.
The comments are so hilarious. I salute you @MrPeacemandLiberty. You made the video more interesting. It's been 10 months and I still watch it. Thank you also Rosemary for the good you do to our entire body
Garlic and rosemary are great for lamb. Lamb loin chops were the least expensive high-quality red meat I could get during C19 hysteria up until the last few months, when the price went up 40%. This is probably a Costco thing as all their meat went insanely high at the same time. Odd how the sale discounts are just as good on beef. So, I've been packing my freezer with sale-priced beef.
A branch fell off my parent's plant. I stuck it in water and I'd rooted. I transplanted it to the garden and it's doing great. I live in the Bay Area. Hope that helps. Otherwise, you can buy it :)
