The concentration of total phenolic compounds of the water and ethanol extracts of Yerusalem sage were 9.4 mg/g and 11.1 mg/g respectively. The total antioxidant activities of water and ethanol extracts of Yerusalem sage were 96.8% and 91.4% in ABTS assay and 97.6% and 87.2% in DPPH assay, PF of the water and ethanolic extracts were 1.1 and 1.6, respectively. TBARS were $0.9{\times}10^{-3}\;{\mu}M$ and $0.3{\times}10^{-3}\;{\mu}M$, respectively. Antimicrobial effect against H. pylori of the ethanol extract was $9{\sim}15\;mm$ of clear zone diameter at $50\;{\mu}g/ml{\sim}200\;{\mu}g/ml$ of phenolic compound. Phenolic profiles in Yerusalem sage chlorogenic aicd was the highest both in water and ethanol extracts in HPLC analyses.
