Lemongras
Despite its name, lemongrass has nothing to do with citrus fruits. The sweet grass gets its name simply from its lemon-like aroma. But it's not just its popular flavor that makes lemongrass a special ingredient in our Classic Infused Energy tea blend. Lemongrass' uniqueness lies in its rich content of essential oils. These have anti-inflammatory properties and simultaneously strengthen the immune system. In Asia, lemongrass has been used for thousands of years to prevent infectious diseases. Furthermore, lemongrass oil has been shown to stimulate the production of norepinephrine.
Noradrenaline is a chemical messenger (also known as the happiness hormone) that promotes physical and mental performance.
Low norepinephrine levels lead to lack of motivation, sluggishness, and a weakened immune system. By preparing the herb with hot water, the essential oils of the dried herbs are released, allowing them to be optimally absorbed by the body.
