African sage (Tarchonanthus Camphoratus) has long been recognized by the indigenous people in the areas in which it is at home, as a valuable plant with diverse medical and spiritual properties. It grows wildly as a shrub or small tree in the Rift Valley region in Kenya and in parts of the southern Africa. It is known from region to region under various names, but is increasingly recognized internationally by its Massai name Leleshwa.

African Sage (Tarchonanthus Camphoratus) has long been recognized by the indigenous people in the areas in which it is at home, as a valuable plant with a variety of medical and spiritual properties. It grows wildly as a shrub or small tree in the Rift Valley region in Kenya and in parts of the southern Africa. It is known from region to region under various names, but is increasingly recognized internationally through its Massai name Leleshwa.

leleshwa leaves are used effectively to relieve painful feet and legs before, during and after long trips. In southern Africa, a hot pack of leaves is placed on the chest to relieve respiratory diseases such as asthma and bronchitis. Apart from these obviously analgesic effects, it is also used for sprinkling to promote a relaxing sleep by warding off both bad dreams and bed bugs and a state of deep relaxation is induced. Even some African savanna animals are announced because many of them were observed how they rubbed themselves on Leleshwa bushes to get rid of ticks and other insects. It is also known that warriors of different ethnic groups brush each other with Leleshwa leaves to promote courage and increase pain tolerance.

This plant with many purposes is finally introduced in the form of an essential oil into the rest of the world, which has the same effects as mentioned above on the emotional and spiritual bodies that the Africans have experienced for a long time. Studies have shown that essential Leleshwa oil has antiseptic, antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal and cleaning properties. Experiments have shown that the killing of germs is many times faster and more effective than tea tree oil. It drastically reduces the symptoms of dandruff, psoriasis, fungal diseases and acne. It is also a great insect repellent. This newer essential oil is promising as a preservative in emulsions (such as lotions and liquid soaps), which has so far only been effectively preserved by synthetic chemical preservatives on the shelf. The possibility of replacing ingredients such as parabens and pegs with Leleshwa oil would be a large milestone in the field of natural body care products.

The harvest of the Leleshwa leaves and the subsequent distillation for essential oil represent a completely new income current for people in the areas in which the shrub is growing wildly. What used to be considered to be weed on some ranch is now a sustainable economic undertaking. The purchase of Leleshwa oil not only improves your personal well-being and cleanliness of your environment, but also helps to generate money for low-income rural families in exchange for the healing effects of African sage bush.
