Rosemary Constituents

I am taking a few days off of writing my book to work on the house since so much was left undone while I was working on school.  We normally celebrate solstice instead of Christmas but hubby won't be home in time so we will do it once he gets home. Then back to work for me!  I got my son's presents wrapped yesterday with lots of help from a 3-year-old who enjoyed playing with them...  I still need to wrap her presents. They are both enjoying me having more time. Frankly, so am I! Love and Light!

On to the constituents of rosemary!

Camphene (Volatile oil): Insecticidal (Badreddine, Olfa, Samir, Hnia, and Lahbib 2015).

Carnosol: Antioxidant and antimicrobial (Oliveira, Oliveira, Conceicao, and Leles, 2016).

Carnosic acid: Antioxidant and antimicrobial (Oliveira, Oliveira, Conceicao, and Leles, 2016).

Constituents:   I think there have been a few misspellings in some of my source books. As such, I will leave these here and do further research as I'm able to.  I did add the ones I have a question about to the master list so I will remember to research them better.  These three mentioned here were in a couple of studies that I added to my book entry for this herb.  Very exciting properties for a culinary herb!

Have a Great Day!
