Lemon Balm (Melissa officinalis) – Organic Dried Herb

Relax Naturally with Premium-Grade Organic Lemon Balm

Lemon Balm (Melissa officinalis) is a fragrant, psychoactive member of the mint family (Lamiaceae), prized for its uplifting citrus aroma, calming properties, and rich ethnobotanical history. This soothing herb has been used for centuries in traditional herbal medicine to reduce anxiety, promote restful sleep, and improve mood and cognitive function.

Why Choose Lemon Balm?

Lemon Balm is renowned for its natural sedative and anxiolytic effects, making it a favourite among herbalists, wellness seekers, and nootropic users. It works by inhibiting GABA transaminase, an enzyme that breaks down GABA—a key neurotransmitter responsible for calming the nervous system. The active compound responsible for this effect is rosmarinic acid, a powerful antioxidant and mood enhancer.

Lemon Balm also interacts with muscarinic and nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, which are linked to improved mental performance, focus, and clarity—offering a unique blend of relaxation and cognitive support.

Ethnobotanical Significance

Historically, Lemon Balm has been used as a mood-lifting herb, particularly in European herbal traditions. It was a key psychoactive ingredient in Absinthe, the famous 18th-century liquor made alongside Wormwood (Artemisia absinthium), contributing to its dreamy, euphoric reputation.

Traditionally, Lemon Balm is often blended with other calming herbs like Valerian, Chamomile, and Blue Lotus for a synergistic relaxing effect.

Recommended Uses
