Actually he is just copying what I read and shared..
The only bullshit that exists is what you type
you pretend to be an expert with no evidence

i could link 20 medical websites and you would still claim you're the expert and deny the hard facts
you're a narcissist your statement is invalid

by TheLeviathanYeah. My sense of smell isn't very great, but I can smell enough to know rosemary and lavender smell terrible.
lol is that your subtle way of dropping psychopathic traits all over the forum like a rat does with its shit because you've read somewhere that psychopaths have a poor sense of smell? Haha, you're a fucking laugh a minute you are, girl.
You won't get past me, you little virmin. I'll always be on hand to rat you out ;)
Haha, I actually didn't even know that there was a correlation. Are you trying to convince me I'm a psychopath?
What do they say about cilantro?
That stuff smells amazing...
Oh wait... yeah, rosemary has thujone in it, and is a piney smell. I remember now.
Thujone is a highly "toxic" chemical in the right amount. I am sensitive to thujone, and if I injest enough I get mild seizures. Personally, I think the word seizure is an inappropriate way to describe it as they are highly invigorating and rejuvenating.
Thujone is being tested as a medicine to help kick start hearts back into service after they fail.
I can't tell if you are trolling or not but the link you send was from a legitimate source so i went ahead and read it.
First of all it was a study done on mice and although we have similar brain stems and other organ operating systems (around 90% similar of course size adjusted) it would still be hard to predict results on humans from this.
The person conducting the study even expressed droughts on it.
"This probably means eating spearmint and rosemary is good for you. However, our experiments were in an animal model and I don't know how much - or if any amount - of these herbs people would have to consume for learning and memory to improve."
What i was saying was that a 75% increase would be totally out of this world and implausible. A smaller one due to antioxidants and other effects would not be unlikely, but as a treatment...nope.
^For sure it is good for you...

Leriadis also talked about local “mountain tea,†made from dried herbs endemic to the island, which is enjoyed as an end-of-the-day cocktail. He mentioned wild marjoram, sage (flaskomilia), a type of mint tea (fliskouni), rosemary and a drink made from boiling dandelion leaves and adding a little lemon. “People here think they’re drinking a comforting beverage, but they all double as medicine,†Leriadis said. Honey, too, is treated as a panacea. “They have types of honey here you won’t see anyplace else in the world,†he said. “They use it for everything from treating wounds to curing hangovers, or for treating influenza. Old people here will start their day with a spoonful of honey. They take it like medicine.â€

Rosemary has many well known health benefits but scientists are now studying its specific effects with regard to memory with outstanding results.
Rosemary (rosmarinus officinalis) is member of the mint family along with other popular and fragrant herbs such as thyme, oregano, lavender and basil. It is native to the Mediterranean but is now popular throughout the world as a healing herb and a delicious ingredient in many dishes. It has numerous health benefits including alleviating muscle pain, helping with hair growth, boosting the immune system, improving the circulatory system, relieving stress as well as improving memory.
In 2003 the International Journal Of Neuroscience published a study by M.Moss, J.Cook, K.Wesnes and P.Duckett which examined the effect of inhaling the aromas of the essential oils of lavender (lavandula angustifolia) and rosemary (rosmarlnus officinalis) on cognitive performance and mood in a group of 144 healthy volunteers (i). The study concluded that the inhalation of rosemary essential oil significantly enhanced the performance for overall quality of memory and secondary memory factors of the participants who had no idea of the aim of the research.
More recent research from 2012 investigated the effect of dried rosemary leaf powder on a group of patients with an average age of 75 (ii). This was a randomized, placebo controlled, double blind repeated study which concluded that there were definite dose dependant improvements in the cognitive performance using this form of rosemary.
Further research by M.Moss (above) and L.Oliver at Northumbria University, Newcastle indicates that a compound found in rosemary known as 1,8-cineole could be the crucial factor in the effect of the inhalation of rosemary aroma. The study found that the subjects had a quicker and more accurate cognitive function following exposure to rosemary (iii).
The same team of researchers have also conducted a study into the effects of a diffusion of rosemary essential oil where they concluded that there were memory enhancements of an astonishing 75% of subjects when compared with people who had not been exposed to the oil (iv).
Moss said “We wanted to build on our previous research that indicated rosemary aroma improved long-term memory and mental arithmetic…….in this study we focused on prospective memory, which involves the ability to remember events that will occur in the future and to remember to complete tasks at particular times. This is critical for everyday functioning, for example when someone needs to remember to post a birthday card or to take medication at a particular time.â€
The volunteers, all healthy adults, also had blood taken and analysed to see if performance levels, or any changes in mood following the exposure to the rosemary aroma via a diffuser, were related to concentrations of 1,8-cineole in their blood.
The results from the blood analysis found that significantly greater amounts of 1,8-cineole were present in the plasma of those in the rosemary scented room, suggesting that sniffing the aroma led to higher concentrations.
Rosemary is very easy to grow in gardens or window sills and maybe more of us will now use it as an aid to our memories and brain function. There are countless ways we can harness the aromas.
You can use a fresh rosemary plant and squeeze the leaves and stem and hold it to your nose for a few minutes. Rosemary oil can be blended in nasal inhalers and have been found to improve short term memory in patients who had specific brain surgeries affecting short term memory. Regular doses from inhalers also help with focus and concentration.
The essential oil can be used in an oil diffuser or can just be inhaled by using a single drop on a tissue. Inhale or diffuse for 15 minutes, then take a break for 30 minutes and repeat.
