OVERVIEW / BENEFITS
Blue lotus flower is a water lily that predominantly grows in Egypt and certain parts of Asia. It is also
found across India, east Africa, southeast Asia, and Australia, this plant enjoys an active and interesting daily life cycle. Lotuses root themselves in the mud, their lengthy stems reaching upward to find the top of the water. There, the lush blossoms grow, and as the lotus blooms, the blossoms unfold one by one.
The blue lotus flower is traditionally used as a sleep aid, detoxifying agent, and aphrodisiac. It is rich in antioxidants and widely used in Ayurveda for relieving diarrhea, fevers, urinary problems, and heart palpitations.
Historically, it's been used recreationally and medicinally, with most advocates claiming it can improve sleep, reduce anxiety, assist with erectile dysfunction, and act as a natural aphrodisiac.
