### **Yarrow Benefits**
Yarrow is one of the most popular medicinal herbs. Known in the literature as *Achillea millefolium*, yarrow has been used for thousands of years for its potential health benefits. Some of the benefits of yarrow include:
- **May accelerate wound healing:** One study suggested that yarrow leaf extracts exhibit anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that aid in wound healing. The same study also noted that they may increase fibroblasts, which are cells that help regenerate connective tissue. A two-week study in 140 women found that an ointment made from yarrow and St. John's wort helped heal surgical incisions made in the vaginal wall during childbirth.
- **May relieve digestive issues:** Yarrow contains flavonoids and alkaloids, plant compounds known to relieve digestive discomfort. Yarrow has long been used in traditional medicine to treat digestive issues such as ulcers and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), symptoms of which include stomach pain, diarrhea, bloating, and constipation. In one limited study, a yarrow extract tonic protected against stomach acid damage and demonstrated antiulcer properties.
- **May help reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety:** Flavonoids and alkaloids found in the yarrow plant may help relieve symptoms of depression and anxiety. Limited research has concluded that yarrow essential oils reduce anxiety and encourage daily mental and physical activity.
- **May aid brain health:** Limited recent research has shown that yarrow extract may help reduce brain damage caused by encephalitis.
### **Benefits of Karabash**
A member of the lavender family, the herb has been used in traditional medicine for centuries. Some of the benefits of the herb are listed below:
- **May have anti-inflammatory effects:** A study conducted with the black cumin plant showed that the plant significantly reduced nitrite production in cell cultures without causing cellular damage. This may indicate that the flavonoids and mucilages in the black cumin plant's extract may be responsible for the observed anti-inflammatory effects.
- **May provide antioxidant effects:** Numerous studies on the activity of plant extracts have shown that phenolic compounds and especially flavonoids have the capacity to capture free radicals and are potentially antioxidant substances.
- **May help prevent spasms:** In a limited study conducted with the black pepper plant, it was noted that the plant may have a sedative effect and a muscle relaxant effect.
- **May have antibacterial effects:** A study has reported that the black pepper plant may have antibacterial activity against gram-positive bacteria.
### **Rosemary Benefits**
Rosemary has a long history of culinary and aromatic uses in addition to traditional herbal medicine practices. Some of its benefits include:
- **May have antioxidant and antibacterial effects:** Compounds in rosemary may have properties that can help fight infections. Rosemary leaves are used in traditional medicine for their antibacterial and wound-healing effects. Rosemary's antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties are due to polyphenolic compounds such as rosmarinic acid and carnosic acid.
- **May help lower blood sugar:** Studies have shown that compounds in rosemary tea may lower blood sugar. This suggests that rosemary may have potential applications for managing high blood sugar in people with diabetes. Some studies suggest that compounds found in rosemary may lower blood sugar by increasing the uptake of glucose into muscle cells.
- **May boost mood and memory:** Limited studies on rosemary indicate that drinking and inhaling compounds in rosemary tea may help lift mood and improve memory. Another 2-month study found that people who drank 2 teaspoons (4 grams) of rosemary in 150 ml (5 ounces) of water daily reported significantly less burnout at work compared to those who drank nothing.
