Essential oil: Clary Sage High Sclareol

Size

Botanic: Salvia sclarea

Country: USA

High Sclareol Sage oil is thought to be beneficial for PMS, menstrual cramps, hot flashes, and stress.

An article by Robert Tisserand: "Sclareol does have an interesting anticancer activity, including in vitro action against human breast cancer MCF-7 cells (Dimas et al 2006). An isomer, 13-epi-sclareol, which is also present in clary sage oil, inhibits the growth of breast and uterine cancers in vitro, and was slightly more potent than Tamoxifen, but was not toxic to normal cells (Sashidhara et al 2007). This suggests the possibility that sclareol might actually inhibit estrogen, and might after all have some capacity to interact with estrogen receptor sites.
