Lemongrass

Lemongrass, also known as Cymbopogon citratus, is a tropical plant that originates from Asia, particularly from countries like Thailand and India. It has a fresh lemon-like scent and is widely used in cooking, especially in Asian cuisine, where it adds flavor and aroma to various dishes and beverages.

Traditionally, lemongrass is used not only as a culinary flavoring but also in herbal medicine. It is often employed in teas and tinctures due to its refreshing properties. For animals such as dogs, chickens, and horses, lemongrass can also be beneficial. It may help promote digestion and can act as a natural repellent against certain insects.

Additionally, lemongrass is increasingly recognized in agriculture for its potential benefits in animal nutrition. It can contribute to better overall health and well-being. The use of lemongrass in the diets of pets and farm animals can be a supplement to their diet, although it is always important to do this in consultation with a veterinarian.
