Living in Australia, we've grown up known to others as the ‘outback country’ where we have Emu’s, Kangaroos and dare we say, drop bears… But when we look at our native ingredients, why is it that we don’t incorporate these in our daily diets?
We have such an advantage living so close to home grown superfoods - yet most of them we’ve most likely never heard of.
Here at Australian Health Vitality, we’re here to explain them to you in a series of our blogs, and what benefits they can have on your overall health & wellbeing.
Lemon Myrtle
You may have this one in your essential oil collection, and as the name suggests - it's a super sweet lemony taste. While lemon myrtle has been used as an indigenous bush medicine and flavouring for thousands of years, its health-giving properties are still being explored for natural food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic use. Adding Lemon Myrtle to your diet can help:
- Sinus Problems
- Sore Throats & Oral health
- Digestive Issues
- Allergies & Headaches
- Asthma
- Arthritis
