What Is Lemon Balm Leaf Liquid Extract?

Lemon balm leaf liquid extract is a concentrated herbal preparation made from leaves of Melissa officinalis, a perennial herb native to southern Europe and the Mediterranean. Belonging to the mint family (Lamiaceae), lemon balm has been cultivated for over 2,000 years for its pleasant lemony aroma and traditional uses. In medieval times, it was often used to promote calmness and relaxation. Today, this alcohol-free tincture offers a convenient way to incorporate this gentle nervine herb into your daily routine. The plant grows up to 80 cm tall, with ovate, wrinkled leaves that emit a strong lemon scent when bruised. Its small white flowers attract bees, sometimes earning it the name "bee balm." Leaves are harvested just before flowering for peak essential oil content.

These benefits are rooted in traditional herbal practices and are not evaluated by the TGA. Always consult a healthcare professional before using any supplement.
