Tea fact

Lavender's calming reputation has a chemical signature: more than 70% of its essential oil is made up of just two compounds — linalool and linalyl acetate — and a 2010 study in Phytomedicine on the standardized lavender oil 'Silexan' found it comparable to low-dose lorazepam for generalized anxiety symptoms, while monks of medieval Europe had been growing it in cloister gardens for the same purpose nearly a thousand years earlier.
