MODERATE EVIDENCESupplementLast updated

AVELOR SUMMARY

Sage contains rosmarinic acid and carnosic acid with cholinesterase inhibitory activity — the SAME mechanism as Alzheimer's drugs (donepezil, galantamine). A 2003 study found 333mg/day sage extract improved word recall and attention in healthy young adults. Also reduces hot flashes by 60% (phytoestrogenic) and lowers blood sugar. The essential oil should NOT be ingested (thujone content — neurotoxic). Use dried leaf extract or standardized capsules. Dose: 300-600mg/day. --- *Reviewed by the Dose AI Research Team and Clinical Advisory Board* *Last updated: 2026-04-06*
