@MissAdventurous, FYI, about rosemary and memory, fact checking says there was decimal point error.
"Researchers from Northumbria University in the United Kingdom presented the experiment at the 2013 Annual Conference of the British Psychological Society, according to a press release. The experiment centered on 66 participants who were randomly assigned a room – one where rosemary oil was diffused and one with no scent."
The results of the experiment, which were not published in a peer-reviewed journal, suggested that rosemary oil enhanced participants' ability to remember events and complete future tasks. But not by 75%, as the Facebook post claims."
"I'm afraid the Daily Mail missed out a decimal point. My research suggests a 7.5% improvement," Mark Moss, head of the Northumbria University Psychology Department and one of the researchers behind the experiment, told USA TODAY in an email."

@warm_embrace LOL isn't the truth 😉
@Cessna_guy OooOooo thank you for that. I do appreciate the follow up because i too was curious if it really was that potent - didn't have the time to look into that one particularly.
