Benefits of Lemon Myrtle

Enjoying a cup of tea is a wonderful time-honoured tradition shared around the world. However, many people do not pause to consider the ingredients in their tea or how they can be beneficial to our health and wellness. Of the scores of beneficial herbs that are native to Australia, Lemon Myrtle is one of the best known and most popular. The herb has been a part of a traditional Aboriginal diet for over 40,000 years as a flavouring agent and medicinal aid.  Native Indigenous Australians often wrapped Lemon Myrtle leaves in paperbark and used it to add flavour to fish and various other meals. They would also crush and inhale the herb as a natural remedy for treating health issues such as headaches, muscle pain, wounds and stress. With its calming and sedating abilities, alongside anti-fungal and antimicrobial properties, it's no wonder this amazing herb is one of our favourite Australian native bush foods to use in many of Roogenic’s best teas and recipes. Here, we’ll cover how lemon myrtle can help you gently detoxify and rejuvenate your body, along with some of the easiest ways to enjoy its benefits. Why Lemon Myrtle Is Known as the Queen of Australian Herbs Due to its high purity, health benefits, and long history of medicinal usage, Lemon Myrtle is often hailed as the Queen of Australian Herbs. Among all the citrus herbs and fruits, Lemon Myrtle has the highest citral purity. This fragrant compound has powerful anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory properties, along with the potential to promote weight loss.  In a study published in the Indian Journal of Pharmacology, citral has been shown to reduce insulin sensitivity and glucose tolerance, leading to a reduction in weight gain. Lemon Myrtle is also rich in antioxidants, such as Vitamin C, that help prevent the production of free radicals, reduce oxidative stress, support a healthy immune system, and promote overall wellness and rejuvenation.

The full offer document will be available just prior to the offer campaign which is set to open on 5th of April 2022. Express your interest to invest in Roogenic, and you can request to see the offer document prior to the public release date.   During our Offer Campaign (where you can invest), Birchal holds all investor funds in a trust account until our capital raise is successful and passes the closing date. From there, your shares will be issued, and Birchal will transfer the money to us to use in our future business plans which are outlined in the Offer Document.   An Equity Crowdfunding investment is like planting a Eucalyptus tree in that it’s a medium-term to long-term commitment. Shares in the companies who raise through Birchal cannot be easily transferred or sold as they are not traded through public exchanges (i.e. the ASX). Due to this, your shares are generally considered to be 'illiquid' so you may not be able to sell your shares quickly if you need the money or decide that this investment is not right for you.   However, there are numerous possible circumstances that may create an opportunity for you to "exit" your investment (i.e. sell your shares) or otherwise receive returns. Such as: a trade sale of the company to another company the company proceeds with an Initial Public Offering (IPO) and listing on a registered stock exchange (e.g. the ASX) the company organises a buyback of the shares a private sale of your shares to another person the company pays shareholder dividends.  The options available to shareholders will be mentioned in our company Offer Document at the time of investment, but we can’t guarantee that any of the above options will occur. Our hope is that our company value will have increased in the event of an ‘exit’, so when that time comes hopefully your shares will have gone up in value!   You may lose your entire investment, and you should be in a position to bear this risk without undue hardship. Even if the company is successful, the value of your investment and any return on the investment could be reduced if the company issues more shares. Ask questions, read all information given carefully, and seek independent financial advice before committing yourself to any investment.   You can invest as an individual, trust or company (including SMSF)   Crowdsourced Equity Funding (also known as Equity Crowdfunding) is governed by legislation that is covered by ASIC (RG 261) and can only be facilitated through licensed intermediaries (ie. birchal.com).   The normal rules apply to your investment in a company via CSF when it comes to tax-time, and we recommend investors consult with an accountant depending on their unique circumstances. If the company on Birchal offering the shares is an E.S.I.C (early stage innovation company), there may be tax incentives for you as an investor.
