Abstract
Simple Summary
Lemongrass is an herb used in folk medicine for the treatment of hypertension, although its pharmacological potential has not yet been thoroughly studied. This paper provides the first comprehensive review on the anti-hypertensive potential of lemongrass, from in vitro to clinical studies. Even though the composition of lemongrass is dependent on its geographical origin, citral constitutes its major compound. Both citral and lemongrass display vasorelaxant activity ex vivo, promoting the secretion of endothelial vasodilators and the blockage of calcium channels in the vascular smooth muscle. Additionally, citral also displays a negative chronotrope effect. In animal models and in human subjects, lemongrass significantly decreases blood pressure, probably due to the combination of the above-mentioned effects together with diuretic activity. Future preclinical studies are necessary to identify other anti-hypertensive compounds/pathways, as well as to better characterize the safety profile of lemongrass.

Lemongrass Hope
And hope, is exactly that – something to hope for, believe in.
And this book, gives you all of that – in a very reflective way.
What if you had the opportunity to change your life? Be with that one love – that one person you were meant to be with – or fix the one relationship you are with?
Is time travel real?
Is this really what is happening?
This is what I love about the genre magical realism – it gives you a sense of “what ifs” and “is it possible?”
Yet, as the reader, even we aren’t sure which decision is the best one we want our main character Kate to make.
This book may be about relationships. But, is it romantic memory or reality that tugs at the heartstrings?
As readers, we follow her on her healing journey, and hope that she does what is right for her in the end.
The question is, will her decision be right for everyone else, as well? As well as herself.
But…the true question is… will we be satisfied at the end of this reading journey?
