In this article, we will be taking a look at a few of the benefits that lemongrass could provide you and your body with!



Benefits of Lemongrass

LOWERS CHOLESTEROL.
A research published in the food and chemical toxicology journal in the year 2011 had revealed that lemongrass possesses anti hyperlipidemic and anti hypercholesterolemic properties that truly support healthy cholesterol levels. Studies have also shown us that the regular consumption of lemongrass helps in sustaining healthy levels of triglycerides and also reducing the LDL cholesterol in your body.
This will certainly help in preventing the accumulation of lipids in the blood vessels and it will also promote an unobstructed flow of blood in your arteries, which will prevent various cardiac disorders such as atherosclerosis.

DETOXIFIES THE BODY.
According to a study conducted in 2003, lemongrass will help in cleansing and flushing harmful toxic wastes out of your body, which is known as a result of its diuretic properties. Detoxification will help in the regulation of various organs of the body, which includes the liver and kidney, while it will also help in lowering the levels of uric acid.

The diuretic effect of the herb on your body will help in increasing the quantity and frequency of urination, which will then help in maintaining digestive health, eliminating accrued fats, and also assisting in maintaining a clean system.



ANTICANCER POTENTIAL.
Lemongrass is known for being effective in preventing the growth of cancer cells without affecting the healthy cells of your body. Research conducted in order to prove the anticancer activity of lemongrass has shown plenty of promising outcomes in the prevention of skin cancer. This is primarily due to the presence of a chemical compound which is called citral, that is present in it.

A research conducted on the effects of citral on cancer cells has shown us that it helps in putting a stop to the growth of hepatic cancer cells during the initial phase and it also prevents any further growth of cancerous cells. Another study provides supporting evidence regarding the anti proliferative effect of citral in impeding the growth of human breast cancer cells and as well as the induction of apoptosis.

STOMACH DISORDERS.
Studies have shown us that lemongrass essential oil contains antimicrobial and anti bacterial properties which will help in fighting the infections that is caused by various pathogens such as Helicobacter pylori and Escherichia coli. It is also beneficial in the prevention of gastrointestinal disorders which are also known as gastric ulcers, it also helps in stimulating the bowel function, and it even improves digestion. The anti inflammatory property of the herb is known for being beneficial for treating constipation, ulcerative colitis, diarrhea, nausea and as well as stomach aches.



TREATS INSOMNIA.
Lemongrass is also known for aiding in calming muscles and nerves, which will then help in inducing deep sleep. Research has shown us that its herbal tea has sedative and even hypnotic properties which will help in increasing the duration of your sleep.

RESPIRATORY DISORDERS.
Lemongrass is also widely used in Ayurvedic medicine for its healing effects in treating both cough and cold. Along with the other beneficial components, the vitamin C content present in it will also help in providing you with relief from nasal blockages, flu and as well as other respiratory disorders which is known as bronchial asthma.



REDUCES FEVER.
Lemongrass is a febrifuge and is also known as the fever grass, owing to its beneficial effects which is very helpful in lowering fever. The antipyretic and diaphoretic effect is also extensively used in Ayurvedic medicine for curing fevers by the simple method of inducing sweating.

TREATS INFECTIONS.
Lemongrass is also given credit for working as an antiseptic and is effective in treating infections such as ringworm, sores, athlete’s foot, scabies, and even urinary tract infections due to its antimicrobial and antifungal properties. Studies have shown us that the herb will exert healing effects on dermatological infections, such as yeast infections, by putting a stop to the growth of pathogens.

Another study also provided supporting evidence that showed us the efficacy of lemongrass over thyme, patchouli, and even cedarwood oil in aiding with the treatment of various diseases that are known as oral or vaginal candidiasis.



BOOSTS IMMUNITY.
Lemongrass is also known for aiding in restoring the vital systems which are operational in the body, which includes digestion, respiration, excretion, and also the nervous system. This will assist in the better absorption of nutrients and strengthening of the immune defense mechanism of your body.

Lemongrass extracts tend to have a beneficial effect on the inflammatory actions of cytokines, which are referred to as the signaling molecules through which the cells communicate and then respond to the body. Studies have shown us that lemongrass exerts anti inflammatory action and its constituent, citral, may potentially be the cause of its inhibitory effect on its cytokine production.

OBESITY.
As we know, lemongrass contains citral, which has been proven to be effective in fighting obesity. It will also prevent the accumulation of abdominal fat and it promotes the use of stored energy, which will help in preventing diet induced weight gain. It also aids in healthy metabolism and it enhances the oxidation of fatty acids in your body.



AROMATHERAPY.
Lemongrass tends to consist of the beneficial ingredients of essential oils known as neroli, citronellol, myrcene, dipentene, geraniol and even methyl heptenone which tend to possess antifungal, insecticidal, and even antiseptic properties. Lemongrass oil is used extensively in aromatherapy, due to its therapeutic effects, which will help in revitalizing your body.

The cooling effect of lemongrass oil is also beneficial for the body during hot weather and it promotes the revival of both your mind and soul. This oil carries natural astringent and even toning qualities that will help in stimulating your blood circulation and it will also tone up the dermal tissues. This will also help in tightening, uplifting and as well as firming lethargic or sagging skin.
