Lemon essential oil is one of the most versatile of the essential oils, with multiple benefits and uses. Taken from the rind of the lemon, this essential oil has uplifting, invigorating and refreshing properties.

Lemon naturally cleanses the body & aids digestion. Simply add a drop or two of Lemon essential oil to still or sparkling water and sip throughout the day.

I love to start my day with a glass of water, a drop of Lemon essential oil and some organic lemon slices so I obtain all the health benefits lemons provide.
