10 Benefits of Sage
Benefit #6: High in Several Nutrients
Sage is a great addition to the diet because it is so high in nutrients. In addition, it is so low in calories and it can be added to any diet plan. In just one serving of sage, you will receive 2 calories, 1.1% RDA for iron, vitamin b6, calcium, and manganese, and only trace amounts of fat and carbohydrates.
In addition, sage also contains magnesium, zinc, copper, and vitamin A; however, these are trace minerals but all incredibly important for numerous metabolic reactions in the body. In addition, sage contains caffeic acid, chlorogenic acid, and rosmarinic acid. All of which contain a myriad of beneficial health effects. Also, just one serving is packed with so much flavor.
