Description

Red sage (Salvia Miltiorrhiza) comes from the Latin term salvus meaning “safe.” Salvia can also mean “healing plant.” The Chinese name for this is “Danshen.” It typically has a red flower (thus the “red” in the name), but there is a version named alba that has white flowers. It has also been called “red white sage,” which can be confusing. Most of the various species are considered interchangeable in China, and as “Danshen” is an extremely common herbal preparation in China and has recorded use for over 2,000 years, the demand is very high for this herb.

This herb is useful for both liver and spleen health. It has traditionally been used for women with irregular menstruation because of its liver-aiding properties.

This herb helps to normalize cytokine dysregulation (inflammation). It has been used to help with abdominal pain, arthritis and swelling.

This herb has anticoagulant properties and has been used to promote regular blood through the cardiovascular system and blood circulation. It can also resolve swelling.

One of the traditional uses of this herb is for promoting “tranquility in the mind.” I believe this is due to its ability to reduce inflammation and promote healthy blood flow in the nervous system.

Why We Love Red Sage

Red sage is my favorite liver-supporting herb for patients with tickborne illnesses. It is especially vital for patients with Anaplasma because of Anaplasma’s love for causing havoc in the liver. This can be paired with other liver-supporting detoxification herbs (such as milk thistle), but this has more immune-balancing benefits than other traditional “detox herbs.”

It can be added to any protocol made for chronic infections for its immune-balancing properties, but I consider it a near necessity for patients with Anaplasma and Rickettsia. It can also be added readily to other detoxification protocols, particularly when the toxicity causes unwanted inflammation in the body (such as toxic mold).

This can be used in place of red root when we want more anticoagulant properties and not astringent properties. These two herbs can be (in some circumstances) used for similar things, the major difference being their blood-clotting or thinning effects.
