Abstract
The pharmacological effects of rosemary plant period a wide range and include anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Rosemary is shown to have its potential on Ischemic stroke because of its Anti-oxidant and Anti-inflammatory properties. It contains strong antioxidants such carnosol, which has anti-inflammatory properties, and Rosmarinus acid, which fights oxidative stress. Rosemary is an attractive possibility for treating disorders like oxidative-related diseases because of its dual activity. Additionally, Rosemary has shown neuroprotective qualities that aid in maintaining brain health and cognitive function. The aromatic components in its essential oil may improve concentration and memory. Rosemary has also been investigated for its potential in hair care, with research indicating that it can encourage hair growth. These rosemary Officinalis also have different chemical substances and compounds like Terpenes, Essential oils, Bicyclic monoterpenes, Monoterpenoids, Ester and also, we have different pharmacological activates they are Anti-oxidative, Anti-inflammatory, Anti-microbial, Anti-obesity, Anti-fungal, Anti-cancer, Anti-diabetic, Cardiovascular activity, Skin health, Neuroprotective, Gastrointestinal, Sperm motility, Anti-depressant, Anti-viral activity.
Keywords: Anti-microbial, anti-oxidant, biological activities, carnosic acid, phenolic acid, rosmaric acid, urosolic acid
