Lavender makes it easier to fall asleep, but as a counterbalance – when we are tired, it can stimulate our mental activity. It is also helpful for indigestion and constipation, relieving colic and bloating and speeding up intestinal peristaltic movements.
In addition, lavender has an antiseptic and antibacterial effect, so it can be used to help fight infections – throat, sinusitis, bronchitis or tonsillitis. In addition, it can be applied to the skin, in the treatment of acne. It will accelerate the regeneration of the epidermis and healing of wounds.
