Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) 400mg | 90 capsules | Swanson

Swanson Rosemary in capsule form

Looking for rosemary capsules? These Swanson Full Spectrum capsules contain 400 mg of ground rosemary leaf (Rosmarinus officinalis) per capsule. Not an extract or concentrate, but the whole leaf, simply finely ground. You probably know rosemary as a culinary herb; in capsule form, you can easily take it without the strong taste or smell. Swanson makes these capsules according to their Full Spectrum line, where the herb remains as close to its natural form as possible.

What full spectrum means

Full spectrum means that the entire leaf is used, without any substances being extracted or concentrated. With an extract, you isolate certain components and strengthen them; with full spectrum, the natural composition of the leaf is preserved. Rosemary naturally contains various plant substances, including rosmarinic acid and carnosic acid, plus the aromatic oils that provide its characteristic scent. By simply grinding the leaf, this entire mix remains together, in the proportion that the plant produces it. Nothing is standardized or added.

Rosemary as an herb and as a supplement

Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) is an evergreen shrub from the Mediterranean region, with narrow, needle-like leaves. These leaves have been used for centuries, both in cooking and in herbal traditions. As a supplement, in the form of rosemary capsules, you get the ground leaf in a fixed amount per capsule, so you don't have to weigh or dose with loose sprigs. This is a mono-ingredient: pure rosemary leaf, without mixtures of other herbs or unnecessary fillers.

400 mg per capsule, 90 capsules per bottle

Each capsule contains 400 mg of ground rosemary leaf. The usual intake is two capsules per day, totaling 800 mg. A bottle contains 90 rosemary capsules, enough for approximately 45 days at that dosage. You swallow the capsule whole with water; you won't notice the strong taste and smell of fresh or dried rosemary. This way, you can easily take the herb daily, even if you don't particularly appreciate its taste.
