I’ve been craving rosemary lately. I’m not sure why it all started. But I’ve been growing it and sprinkling it into all of my meals. I’ve been burning rosemary oil like it’s going out of fashion. And, as I said Monday, I even bought my dog a rosemary fragrance. Well, seems it might be my body’s way of forcing a detox on me - I just read that Japanese researchers have found that when we smell rosemary oil at high concentrations, there’s an increase in free radical activity in our saliva, thought to fight the toxins linked to ageing and inflammation. Not sure if that’s the same deal when it comes to pizza toppings. And that would kind of defeat the whole detox purpose. But if it takes some of the guilt out of eating pizza, I’m all for it.
