The Lemon essential oil is extracted by Cold-Compressing the peel of the fruit. Believed to be anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, tonic, disinfectant, detoxifying, antimutagenic, soothing, antioxidant, antimicrobial, antifungal and expectorant, Lemon Oil is said to have the most powerful anti-microbial activity of all the essential oils.
