Tree of Healing and Harmony. A Pocket Guide
The lime tree is the tree of the heart of Central and Northern Europeans, and for Martin Luther it was a ‘tree of joy and peace’. Our ancestors used its flowers, leaves and honey as food and medicine.
The ‘medicinal plant of the year 2025’ is full of antioxidants that act as free radical scavengers; the flowers, leaves, buds, bark, wood and seeds of the lime tree can be used in a wide variety of ways. The polyphenols and other bioactive substances they contain strengthen the immune system, lower blood sugar and thus prevent type II diabetes, slow down inflammation, relieve pain and protect us from cancer, liver disease and degenerative processes in the brain.
But it’s not just physically that we benefit from lime: with its support, we can cope better with stress, reduce anxiety, fall asleep more easily and enjoy a deeper sleep. These and many other indications have been proven by numerous scientific studies.
