DESCRIPTION

Lemon myrtle leaves can  be milled for citrus flavour and used in sweet and savoury products. The milled leaves are used to impart a distinctively clean and crisp citrus flavour in teas, drinks, syrups, glazes, cakes, biscuits, dressings, mayonnaises, sauces and ice creams. 
Lemon Myrtle is notable because it contains the highest purity of citral of any of the citrus herbs and fruits. This makes it particularly suitable for us in teas blending as it adds strong citrus tones to blends, even when only small quantities are used. 

Lemon Myrtle has been found to have the following health benefits:

1. Stress and Insomnia:

Due to its relaxing properties, lemon myrtle has been found to help in cases of stress and poor sleep. A cup of Lemon Myrtle Tea before bed and/or the use of lemon myrtle oil bath salts in the bath before bed can help improve your sleep. 

2. Sinus and Bronchitis Infection:

Lemon Myrtle has been found to have anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial properties which makes it great for helping to beat Sinus and Bronchitis infections. The anti-inflammatory properties help with the inflammation of the nasal cavity and bronchial tubes and the anti-microbial properties help clear the infection so the body can heal itself. 

3. Sore Throat

The anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial properties of lemon Myrtle are great for treating a sore throatA tincture can be made with some high proof alcohol like vodka which is then gargled at the first signs of a sore throat. The alcohol is also useful for killing any bugs hiding back there as well. 

4. Pimples and Acne:

Lemon Myrtle is useful for helping to clear annoying pimples and acne from the face and body. It helps with keeping the skin clean and reducing the amount of oil that is produced by the skin. The anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory properties are excellent for killing the bugs which are causing the pores to get infected and reducing the inflammation which they cause.  A tea can be made and allowed to cool till it is luke warm, then Celtic sea salt or normal sea salt is added to the water and used as a face wash.

The body is working hard to protect you from infection everyday and so the immune boosting properties of lemon myrtle are of great value in helping with this. Drink the tea during the colder months to help keep yourself free of nasty bugs.
