[Everything doTERRA] Brain benefits of lemon

Just read this and thought I would share....Japanese researchers
recently found that when animals under stress were exposed to the
compound linalool (lemons) they experienced lower levels of
inflamatory chemicals in their blood, compared with another group that
did not smell the linalool...breathing in the scent also reduced the
activity of more than 100 genes that are activated during stressfull
situations...linalool is also found in basil and lavender.
In another article...Green tea that is rich in antioxidantes...a study
from Purdue University in the U.S. found that adding citrus juice led
to a four fold increase in the disease- fighting catechins...Lemon
juice in particular preserved the most catechins while orange, lime
and grapefruit were less potent but still effective. This was in an
article on Green Tea + Lemon for lower cancer risk.

Knowledge is power.

Kind Regards
Kathy.
