Improved Digestion - Check!
Lemongrass is known to have a cooling effect on your stomach. It contains a component called citral that helps to digest food; making it the ideal after-meal beverage. The brews are an all-natural remedy for bloating, constipation or indigestion.
Immunity Boost - Check!
The Vitamin C present in blend strengthens your immunity. Its antibacterial and antifungal properties make Lemongrass tea a soothing cure for cold, cough and flu. A warm concoction of lemongrass, tulsi leaves and cardamom is also a common ayurvedic cure for cold.
Weight Management - Check!
Wondering if there are any Lemongrass tea benefits for weight loss? The answer is yes, yes and yes! These black tea brews play a significant role in boosting metabolism and burning more calories. They are the perfect addition to your weight loss diet plan.
Skin & Hair Care - Check!
Being a great source of Vitamin A and Vitamin C, Lemongrass tea brews do wonders for your skin and hair. By improving blood circulation, they clear up your skin, and treat skin disorders or infections like acne, pimples and eczema.
Heart Health - Check!
The black tea brews are rich in potassium which increases the production of urine in our body. This in turn stimulates blood circulation and lowers blood pressure. Lemongrass is also known to limit cholesterol absorption from the intestines, thus promoting overall heart health.
