This is a key component of lemongrass and why it is recommended as a tea or aromatherapy treatment if you suffer from nausea. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf you google lemongrass and pregnancy, you may read that it is dangerous. However, this is not true. It is unfortunately based on poor research.The only recent medical research on this (from Brazil in 2016 - Use of Medicinal Plants with Teratogenic and Abortive Effects by Pregnant Women in a City in Northeastern Brazil.Rev Bras Ginecol Obstet. 2016 Mar;38(3):127-31. doi: 10.1055\/s-0036-1580714. Epub 2016 Mar 29.) shows that lemongrass definitely has no toxic impacts on pregnancy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMany websites refer to a much older study (2006). Whilst the recent research proves it wrong, we should still consider it carefully.This study gave mice 60 mg\/kg body weight of citral - one component that is found in lemongrass essential oil (c. 60-70% of essential oil when extracted). This dose is hugely concentrated compared to drinking an infusion from a tea, or using lemongrass in a meal where you do not then eat the grass itself. When you drink tea or a thai dish with lemongrass in it, you will get a maximum 40% of compounds pulled from the leaf.To put this into context, in each bag of our Morning Rescue tea, there is less than 1g of lemongrass. So, this means 0.7g in the highest case of citral, of which you extract 0.28g at most. If you weigh 55kg (8.6 stone), you'd need to therefore eat or drink 3.3g of citral per day to be similar to the mice study. This is 12 cups of tea a day for a sustained period. And obviously, if you weigh more than 8 and a half stone, this increases more, but 12 cups is a good guideline.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNow, the NHS advises that no one should drink more than 3 cups of any herbal tea a day. And we follow this guidance. As such, the tea is nowhere near being at the same level of the research.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to brew?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach of our packs has simple instructions on it, but essentially you should use 1 tea bag per person, and freshly boiled water for all except Newborn Wonder.
