Lemon, Citrus limonum cortex

Lemon Gemmo acts as a circulatory tonic, enhancing blood fluidity and rapidly increasing blood flow. Its action is synergistic, requiring combination with other extracts for full effect. Improved circulation indirectly benefits digestion, the respiratory system, and the liver.

Why Olena Loves Lemon Gemmo

I love the bright, uplifting essence of Lemon Gemmo and its ability to collaborate seamlessly with other extracts. It brings lightness and versatility to any protocol.

The Lemon Tree

Native to India and the Far East, the lemon tree has been cultivated in Europe for over 2000 years, first introduced by the Romans. This small, thorny evergreen tree can grow up to 30–36 feet (10–12 meters) tall. It thrives in dry, stony, calcareous soils and is renowned for its aromatic qualities.

Unlike most Gemmo extracts, Lemon is prepared from the bark of young stems, adding a unique dimension to its properties. Historically, lemons were recognized for their high vitamin C content, which Scottish physician James Lind discovered to prevent scurvy in 1747.
