About the product

Relaxing effect. Helps reduce nervous tension and irritability, and contributes to reducing tiredness. Supports digestion. Also called Melissa, this plant received its name from the fragrant honey that bees make from its flowers: the ancient Greeks believed that lemon balm honey was the nectar, the privileged food of the Olympian gods. In the Middle Ages, the famous physician Paracelsus called lemon balm the “elixir of life” because of its calming effect on the heart. “It is tonic, […] helps digestion; […] stimulates the nervous system, which it fortifies, and […] induces a state of good spirits.” A. Gautier, Manuel des plantes medicinales, 1822. Product type: Food supplement
