Full Product Label

Melissa officinalis, more commonly known as lemon balm, is a ‘calming’ herb that has been used for centuries. This perennial herb grows ovate leaves and small flowers, offering a lemony aroma and flavor. Over 100 chemicals have been identified within lemon balm, offering a wide range of potential benefits for both the body and mind.

A member of the mint family, lemon balm has been utilized for more than 2,000 years. The Greeks called lemon balm ‘melisophyllon’ — meaning honeybee and leaf. Since the 16th century, gardeners had made a connection to bees in terms of this nectar-filled plant. Promoting pollination and honey production, lemon balm is known to calm the mind.

Used to make ‘longevity’ lemon balm tea, royalty would often drink this tonic to promote positive health. By the 17th century, Carmelite nuns created a lemon balm combination which was used for hundreds of years, treating a range of nervous disorders. Today, it’s still considered to be a natural calming remedy, while offering a number of other potential benefits.

Why European Lemon Balm Extract? Eastern Europe is the best place to get Lemon Balm. It grows naturally in abundance throughout the Balkan countries and has been harvested for centuries. Bulgaria is one of the best and largest (if not the largest) producers in the world of Premium Lemon Balm and Lemon Balm Extract.

Why Buy Ours?

Our premium European Lemon balm extract is unlike any other on the market. Not only in serving size, but also it's origin and standardization. The raw material comes to us at a hugely increased cost vs other lemon balm extracts, but here is why.

Regular Lemon Balm extracts, say just a by-weight 10:1 ratio Lemon Balm extract may be effective, however other compounds in the plant can make people extremely groggy. What do we feel is the most important compound? Rosmarinic acid. In our experience, and defined by the compounds structure (more on that in a moment), rosmarinic acid may offer the stress and mood support you are looking for, with the relaxation, but without the grogginess. One reason why, is that rosmarinic acid may cross the blood-brain barrier and is similar to caffeic acid, found in green coffee beans. Caffeic acid may help support key neurotransmitters and a sense of "vividness" and mood support, but without forcing you awake or stimulating the central nervous system like caffeine, also found in green coffee beans.*

First hand experience testing the material, and feedback from our customers confirms this. People report feeling very well, relaxed, but without grogginess, and also, not "stimulated".*

Also, our Lemon Balm product is manufactured in a cGMP, FDA approved, NSF®, USDA Organic certified facility with state of the art equipment, in Anaheim, CA.

Why You Need It:

In our experience, this Lemon Balm extract is one of those "works right now" kind of supplements. Meaning, with even one use, while feeling stressed, you may experience a better mood or some support fighting the stress. We recommend opening 1-3 capsules, mixing them in a cold glass of water (add some stevia to sweeten if you like) and sipping on that, as it may be quicker-to-effect that way.*
