Odorant verbena is renowned for its relaxing and soothing properties. It can help reduce anxiety, stress and sleep disorders, while aiding digestion and relieving abdominal pain.
Lemon Verbena is mainly used for its sedative and relaxing effects on the nervous system. Thanks to the presence of citronellal, a terpene aldehyde, this plant helps alleviate symptoms of stress andanxiety. In times of mental overload, a Verbena tea can offer invaluable comfort, promoting a state of calm and serenity. Those suffering from sleep disorders will also find it an ideal ally, as it helps induce restful sleep.
On the digestive front, Lemon Verbena stands out for its carminative properties, reducing bloating and soothing gastric spasms. It acts as an antispasmodic, relieving abdominal pain. Studies have even demonstrated its effectiveness in protecting against gastric ulcers, thanks to its polyphenols, which have anti-inflammatory properties. In addition, it is recognized for its ability to eliminate Helicobacter pylori, the bacterium responsible for many digestive disorders.
The plant's rich flavonoid content also gives it antioxidant properties, essential for protecting cells against oxidative damage. This could help reduce the risk of chronic diseases, notably cardiovascular disease. The flavonoids present in Lemon Verbena are also known for their cardioprotective effects, lowering cholesterol levels and improving blood circulation.
In addition, Lemon Verbena has anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties. It can help relieve joint and muscle pain, offering valuable support for those suffering from chronic pain or migraines. Citronellal, present in the plant's essence, also contributes to its muscle-relaxing effects.
The plant also benefits the immune system thanks to its antibacterial and antiviral properties, making its use particularly relevant during the colder seasons. An infusion of Lemon Verbena can provide respiratory comfort in cases of bronchitis or flu, helping to relieve associated symptoms.
Finally, Lemon Verbena's antioxidant virtues are not limited to cell protection. They can also play a role in the prevention of certain cancers, notably breast cancer, by reducing cell proliferation. This action is attributed to its composition rich in polyphenols and flavonoids, which appear to exert a protective effect on healthy cells.
