There are many products on the market today that claim extraordinary health benefits. Two of those, lemon oil and lemongrass oil, do have various helpful properties. Despite the name similarity they're not the same thing.
About Lemon Oil
Lemon oil is made through a cold-press process; a fresh peel of a lemon is pressed down to produce a small bit of oil. One ton of lemon peel produces approximately 6 to 7 pounds of lemon oil.
Benefits of Lemon Oil
Lemon oil acts as a mood enhancer for aromatherapy. It is also used as an astringent and occasionally as an antiseptic. Cosmetically, some use lemon oil to brighten skin.
About Lemongrass Oil
Lemongrass oil is extracted from various types of lemongrass grown worldwide. The oil is extracted from the dried leaves by a steam distillation process.
