Lemongrass Ayurvedic Benefits & Uses for the skin and health.

In Ayurveda, Lemongrass is considered bitter, pungent in taste (Rasa), and is cool in effect (Virya). It reduces Vata, Pitta, and Kapha, but increases Vata when taken in excess. Due to its pungent and bitter taste, it stimulates digestion. Its light and drying properties makes it a good expectorant and helps to cure Kapha. Its cooling nature helps to reduce high body temperature. It is also a great detoxifier that removes toxins from the body. Lemongrass essential oil is known to deeply purify and heal, hence it helps to treat acne and wounds. It is widely used in antibiotic medicines to treat skin infections. Due to its refreshing and uplifting aroma, Lemongrass essential oil is a staple in aromatherapy and is also used as diffuser oils. It is an excellent mood-elevating oil that helps alleviate stress, fatigue, anxiety, and emotional distress. It can be used in vaporizer, burner, or diffuser to help drive away negative emotions. It also works as insect repellent and serve as a natural air freshener.
