Lemongrass - this is the common name of Palmarosa. From Latin (Cymbopogon citratus), a species of grass from the Poaceae family. For years, this plant has been used in natural medicine in Asia and South America. Modern scientific research confirms its health effects on cholesterol and blood glucose levels, so it is recommended for patients with type 2 diabetes.

In India, it is used as a remedy for indigestion, lack of appetite, cough, antispasmodic and anti-rheumatic. In China, a lemongrass drink relieves headaches and abdominal pain. In South America, it is used as a means that clears the mind and improves concentration. Popular in Brazil, the yerba mate drink also contains the addition of lemongrass, which gives it a refreshing, lemon aroma.

Lemongrass oil has the most healing properties. In folk medicine, it was used to treat skin inflammations and ulcers. It is now known that it has bactericidal and fungicidal properties, has a calming effect and improves the general mood, as well as relieves headaches and muscle pain. The beneficial properties of the oil are mainly due to the citral substance, which constitutes 65-85% of the oil content. The oil also has anti-cancer properties.
