Lemongrass

Lemongrass - Loose Leaf Botanical

Lemongrass is a delicious and fragrant herb which grows in subtropical climates. The lemon-citrus flavor and scent of lemongrass makes it a common addition to Indian and Thai cuisine. In addition to culinary dishes, lemongrass is used in skin and body care products, and steeped as tea.

Lemongrass tea is an excellent way to deliver a tasty dose of antioxidants through polyphenolic compounds and essential vitamins and minerals. Citral, the main component of lemongrass which gives its distinct lemony flavor, may possess antimicrobial and anti-fungal properties. Lemongrass is also widely used in aromatherapy practices as a way to relieve anxiety and relax the senses.
