Cymbopogon citratus
Tropical Asian grass widely used as a culinary and medicinal herb. Popular as a digestive and fever-reducing tea across Asia and Africa.
Lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus) is a tropical grass widely used in culinary and traditional medicine, particularly in Asia and Africa. Its primary modern applications include antimicrobial effects, digestive support, and anxiety relief, attributed to active compounds such as citral, geraniol, and myrcene. Evidence for these uses is limited (Level C), though traditional use is extensive.
The volatile oil components, especially citral and geraniol, disrupt microbial cell membranes, conferring antimicrobial activity. Citral also exhibits anxiolytic effects by modulating GABA-A receptors, while myrcene contributes to sedative and analgesic properties. In digestive health, lemongrass may reduce gastric inflammation and promote bile secretion through cholinergic pathways.
