Historical Information:
Lemon balm has been used therapeutically for over two millennia. Pliny in his "Natural History" and Dioscorides in "De Materia Medica" were among the first to mention its therapeutic use, primarily for heart and stomach protection. It was particularly valued by medieval Arab physicians, Hildegard von Bingen, and Paracelsus. Avicenna praised its action on the digestive tract. Jakob Theodor Tabernaemontanus wrote about the leaves of lemon balm: "they warm the stomach and enhance digestion... they drive away all sorrow and fear and bring pleasant dreams... against the weakness and frailty of the heart."

Scientifically Documented Applications:
The ESCOP recommends internal use of lemon balm preparations for tension, anxiety, and confusion, as well as for digestive disorders, e.g., mild stomach cramps. External use is recommended for treating cold sores.

The Commission E supports only the internal use of lemon balm for sleep disturbances of a nervous origin and functional intestinal discomfort. There are clinical studies only for its combination with valerian or other therapeutic herbs regarding sleep disorders.

Antiviral action against herpes and other viruses has been confirmed experimentally. This applies to its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial actions as well. Experimental evidence has also shown lemon balm's effects on specific neurotransmitters.

Υπέροχο βότανο, ωραία γεύση σαν αφέψημα αλλά μπαίνει και στο φαγητό σαν καρυκευμα.

Προσεγμένη συσκευασία το παρέλαβα σήμερα μαζί με το μαραθοσπορο ύστερα από τις οδηγίες στην περιγραφή του προϊόντος για αύξηση γάλακτος ( μητρικός θηλασμός) δεν έχω ακόμη άποψη για την αποτελεσματικότητα του όμως σίγουρα θα ξανά πάρω τσάι από το κατάστημα σας!!! Ευχαριστώ πολυ
