"Cymbopogon giganteus plant parts are used in local African medicine for various treatments, such as against rheumatism, fever, cough, skin disorders (decoctions of leaves and flowers) and arterial hypertension... The essential oils of this as well as of other Cymbopogon species (e.g. the more common C. citratus) are important aromatic substances, used for food flavoring and perfumery/cosmetic products, and also show antioxidative and antiradical as well as anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. Analyses of the oil composition of C. giganteus samples from Africa, such as Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast and Mali, showed p-menthadienols as main constituents." \\ | "Cymbopogon giganteus plant parts are used in local African medicine for various treatments, such as against rheumatism, fever, cough, skin disorders (decoctions of leaves and flowers) and arterial hypertension...
