Rosemary — Traditional Use & Precautions

The source pin's own precautions section was unusually strong for this batch — the actual problem was a stack of medical-sounding benefit claims layered on top of a kitchen herb.

Contraindications — Read Before Using

  • Hypertension: Large internal amounts of rosemary may raise blood pressure — caution for anyone managing hypertension.
  • Pregnancy and blood thinners: Avoid large internal amounts during pregnancy or while on blood-thinning medication.
  • Epilepsy — do not ignore: Rosemary's camphor-type compounds carry a real seizure-risk consideration for anyone with epilepsy. Dilute essential-oil use only — never internal use of the essential oil.
