In this study, researchers from Brazil analyzed the essential oil yield and chemical composition of fresh and dry leaves versus seasonal variation of Lantana camara (West Indian lantana). Their results were published in the Journal of Essential Oil Research.
Based on these findings, the researchers concluded that the essential oil of L. camara is a promising natural medicine for Alzheimer’s disease and microbial infections.
