Inside your kitchen cabinet there are probably dozens of spices and herbs you should be using more liberally… and more often.
Rosemary is one of them.
Recent research published in Oncology Reports found that rosemary has potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, helping to protect cells from oxidative damage.
What’s more, this piney spice showed strong cancer-fighting activity against leukemia and breast cancer cell lines.

P.S. Try this refreshing Rosemary Leaf Tea - In addition to its varied culinary uses, Rosemary also has a history as a health-giving herb.
