Antifungal action: the presence of camphor and camphene gives this oil antifungal properties, enabling it to help inhibit fungal infections both internally and externally, and to relieve conditions such as dysentery, certain skin disorders, athlete's foot and dermatitis, which explains its use in skin care products.
Digestive support: sage essential oil helps digestion, soothes the stomach and supports overall digestive function against inflammation caused by excess acids, and it neutralises acids in the stomach and bloodstream providing relief from heartburn and acidosis and helping to protect against peptic ulcers and associated skin problems such as boils and rashes.
