Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) is a shrub of the family Lamiaceae, native to the Mediterranean region. The material used for herbal purposes includes lavender flowers (Lavandula flores) containing essential oil (3%), anthocyanins, phytosterols, sugars, minerals, and tannins. The qualitative and quantitative composition of the essential oil of lavender is variable and depends on genotype, growing location, climatic conditions, propagation, and morphological features. The essential oil contains over 300 chemical compounds. The dominant components are linalool, linalyl acetate, terpinen-4-ol, acetate lavandulol, ocimene, and cineole. Lavender essential oil has good antioxidant and antimicrobial activities and a significant positive effect on the digestive and nervous systems. Lavender extract prevents dementia and may inhibit the growth of cancer cells, while lavender hydrolate is recommended for the treatment of skin problems and burns.

PL

Lawenda wąskolistna (Lavandula angustifolia) to krzewiasta roślina z rodziny jasnotowatych (Lamiaceae), pochodząca z terenów basenu Morza Śródziemnego. Surowcem zielarskim są kwiaty lawendy (Lavandula flores), zawierające olejek eteryczny (do 3%), antocyjany, fitosterole, cukry, związki mineralne i garbniki. Skład jakościowy i ilościowy olejku eterycznego z lawendy jest zmienny i zależy od genotypu, miejsca uprawy, warunków klimatycznych, sposobu rozmnażania i cech morfologicznych. W olejku eterycznym wstępuje ponad 300 związków chemicznych, składnikami dominującymi są linalol, octan linalilu, terpinen-4-ol, octan lawandulolu, ocymen oraz cyneol. Olejek eteryczny charakteryzuje dobra aktywność przeciwdrobnoustrojowa i antyoksydacyjna oraz wyraźny pozytywny wpływ na układ trawienny i nerwowy. Ekstrakt z lawendy przeciwdziałała otępieniu oraz może wpływać hamująco na rozwój komórek rakowych, zaś hydrolat lawendowy zalecany jest w leczeniu problemów skórnych i poparzeń.
