lemon vs lemongrass

While lemon and lemongrass both have the word “lemon” in it they are not the same at all. In fact, I find it somewhat funny and interesting that people even ask this question. But I have been asked it more than once, so I thought I would write this blog post. In summary here are some of the similarities and differences between lemon and lemongrass.

Is used in cleaning, cleansing and detoxing as the primary usages

Can help with the lowering of blood pressure and the balancing of the thyroid
