Herbal Kaffir Lime Leaf Tea Antioxidant Rich Natural & Pure Taste 30g

OverviewA tropical fruit that is native to various parts of Asia, including Indonesia, Thailand, and the Philippines. Aside from its culinary uses, due to its uniquely tart and pleasant flavour, it is also highly respected in herbal medicine, due to its high content of beneficial organic compounds that can positively affect the body’s systems. You’ll often find kaffir leaves being used in soups and sauces, such as Tom Yum soup, etc. Strong flavour is due to the high concentration of alkaloids, citronellol, limonene, nerol, and another organic compound. Not only do these provide a unique aroma and flavour, but also a wide range of health benefits. Before the invention of toothpaste, people in Southeast Asia have been chewing on Kaffir lime leaves for oral hygiene. The anti-halitosis effect comes from both the pleasant fragrance of the aromatic oils and the natural antibacterial properties of the leaves. The leaves can be directly rubbed onto the gums to promote good oral health and eliminate harmful bacteria that can build up in the mouth. The oil extracted from kaffir limes can also be mixed in with organic toothpaste and mouthwashes to promote more potent oral and gum care. Maintains Digestive System. There are several components found in kaffir that are also found in lemongrass and related herbs. These organic constituents are anti-inflammatory in nature, but they are also stimulating for the digestive system. If you are suffering from constipation or indigestion, some kaffir lime leaves decoction can clear your symptoms up and get your bowels back on a regular track. This can help prevent more serious gastrointestinal issues in the future, such as colorectal cancer, haemorrhoids, or gastric ulcers. Lowers Inflammation. For those suffering from rheumatism, arthritis, edema, gout, or some other inflammatory condition, kaffir can be a very effective remedy. You can use leaves topically on the area where you are experiencing discomfort or pain.
