Satureja montana has been used in traditional medicine to treat various ailments and their symptoms. It has been used to relieve muscle pain, stomach and intestinal disorders such as nausea, indigestion, and diarrhea, and infectious diseases.
Recently, many studies have been proving the properties of Satureja montana, including antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-diabetic, anti-hyperlipidemic, antispasmodic, anti-nociceptive, anti-inflammatory, antiproliferative, sedative, reproduction stimulatory, vasodilatory activities. [1,2]
These data suggest that Satureja montana could be considered as a natural remedy for the treatment of premature ejaculation delaying ejaculation latency without exerting any negative effect on the other parameters of sexual behavior and without exerting a sedative effect.[3]
The positive effects of savory on human health as well as its antibacterial activity are attributed to its active constituents such as EO, triterpenes, flavonoids and rosmarinic acid. [4]
