Day 1: LEMONGRASS

My favourite herb is Lemongrass and it health benefits includes the following:

* Lowers blood pressure: It contains diuretic properties, lemongrass promotes the elimination of excess sodium through the urine. This can aid in the management of blood pressure. In addition, the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compounds found in lemongrass which decrease inflammation and improves circulation and can prevent high blood pressure.
* Promoting weight loss: lemongrass contains diuretic properties, which promotes the elimination of accumulated fluid. This can help reduce abdominal bloating, making it an interesting option to include in a weight loss diet.
* Relieves anxiety: Lemongrass tea offers anxiety-reducing properties. Lemongrass contains compounds with sedative action (like cirtral), which act on the immune system to improve sleep quality. 
* Anticancer properties: Lemongrass is a medicinal plant that is rich in antioxidants, that help to strengthen the immune system and prevent the growth and development of cancerous cells. 
* Boosts oral health: In my area, people chew lemongrass stalks. They claim this improves dental health and keeps the mouth feeling clean.
* Prevents infection: lemongrass has some infection-preventing capabilities. It contains fungicide properties, which can help to combat Candida albicans, which is a type of fungus that is responsible for vaginal yeast infections and oral thrush.
* Relieving pain: lemongrass can be used as a compliment to the treatment of headaches, muscular pain, stomach aches and rheumatism, because it contains myrcene and citral (which are bioactive compounds with analgesic properties).
* Healing wounds: Lemongrass essential oil contains potent antimicrobial action and therefore can be applied directly to the skin to speed-up wound healing.
