Lemongrass Essential Oil is extracted from Cymbopogon citratus, also known as 'oil grass', from the fresh or partly-dried leaves by steam distillation. This oil is said to fight fatigue, and help refresh a tired body and mind. It is also a pleasant-smelling way of keeping a pet free of fleas and ticks. Lemongrass contains citral which provides the main flavour in lemon peel.

It is believed to relieve jet lag, headaches, nervous exhaustion, and stress. It is said to be useful for treating sore throat, laryngitis, and fever, and helps stop the spreading of infection. It can irritate the skin, however, so care must be taken when used on skin.

Avoid use during pregnancy.
