The herb’s subtly sweet, softly floral taste complements both hearty and delicate recipes.

It is great for winding down before bedtime, yet has balancing properties that make it just as beneficial for stimulating and energising.

Ingredients
Therapeutic Grade™ Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) essential oil
ORAC – Lavender has an approximate ORAC of 360 (TE/L). TE/L is expressed as micromole Trolox equivalent per litre.
What is the ORAC capacity?
* The ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) unit, ORAC value, or “ORAC score” is a method of measuring the antioxidant capacity of different foods and supplements. It was developed by scientists at the National Institutes of Health. While the exact relationship between the ORAC value of a food and its health benefit has not been established, it is believed that foods higher on the ORAC scale will more effectively neutralise free radicals. According to the free-radical theory of aging, this will slow the oxidative processes and free radical damage that can contribute to age-related degeneration and disease.
