The essential oil of rosemary is used internally as a traditional herbal medicine for the treatment of dyspepsia and spasmodic gastrointestinal disorders. Externally, the extract is used to treat mild muscle and joint pain and mild circulatory disorders [2]. In folk medicine, rosemary is used for general digestive problems, headaches and migraines [3].*

Due to its aroma, rosemary extract can be used as a herb extract in many foods.*

Rosemary extract is also suitable for use in food supplements.*

The essential oil of rosemary, especially its main components 1,8-cineol, camphor, alpha-pinene, verbenone and beta-caryophyllene has antimicrobial properties against oral pathogens responsible for the development of caries [4]. Therefore, the use of rosemary extract in oral care products such as toothpaste or mouthwashes is conceivable. Moreover, the extract has a characteristic spicy aroma and is suitable as a fragrance in various cosmetic products and perfumes.*
