Lavande d'Afghanistan
Salvia yangii · Russian Sage
Salvia yangii is a plant native to China, though its traditional medicinal uses have not been well-documented. Scientific studies have shown that alcoholic extracts from its flowers and leaves can be effective in reducing grapevine downy mildew severity, comparable to copper-based fungicides. Additionally, these extracts exhibit antimicrobial, antioxidant, photoprotective, and anti-aging properties, suggesting potential applications in the cosmetic industry. While research on S. yangii has shown promising results, particularly in plant protection and cosmetics, further studies are needed to confirm these findings comprehensively. No significant safety concerns or drug interactions have been reported for this plant.
