@ healthwizard i am a Filipina and my mom is a great believer in herbal plants so she has plenty of lemongrass plants all over our seaside farm in Tacloban city..Once i have a severe colds and cough and my mom made a concoction of boiled lemongrass seasoned with lemons and honey and presto i feel good . Recommend too, that for hard cough lemon grass ...young lemon grass with moringa is superb

I remember on my trip to India, I ordered a glass of Lemongrass tea, and the waiter walked outside to the garden, shears in hand, and cut a beautiful little stalk of Lemongrass, put it in a cup with hot water and brought it to me. It was so soothing and tasty. In the states I came across Lemongrass and ginger tea, different from fresh of course but still so wonderful.
