Lemon Balm (Melissa officinalis L. ), not to be confused with bee balm, Monarda species, is a perennial herb in the mint family Lamiaceae, native to southern Europe and the Mediterranean region, especially in mountainous situations. It grows to 70-150 cm tall. The leaves have a gentle lemon scent, related to mint. At the end of the summer, small white flowers full of nectar appear. These attract bees, hence the genus name Melissa (Greek for 'honey bee'). Its flavour comes from the terpenes citronellal, citronellol, citral, and geraniol.
Lemon Balm is also used medicinally as a herbal tea, or in extract form. It is claimed to have antibacterial, antiviral properties (it is effective against herpes simplex), and it is also used as a mild sedative or calming agent. At least one study has found it to be effective at reducing stress, although the study's authors call for further research. Its antibacterial properties have also been demonstrated scientifically, although they are markedly weaker than those from a number of other plants studied. The extract of Lemon balm was also found to have exceptionally high antioxidant activity.
Lemon balm is mentioned in the scientific journal Endocrinology where it is explained that Melissa officinalis exhibits antithyrotropic activity, inhibiting TSH from attaching to TSH receptors, hence making it of possible use in the treatment of Graves' disease or hyperthyroidism.
Lemon balm essential oil is very popular in aromatherapy. The essential oil is commonly co-distilled with lemon oil, citronella oil, or other oils.
Lemon balm is used in some variations of the Colgate Herbal toothpaste for its soothing and aromatic properties.
Lemon Balm contains Eugenol that kills bacteria and has been shown to calm muscles and numb tissues, Rosmarinic acid, Caffeic acid, and Phenolic acids that contribute to its antioxidant effects; Tannins that contribute to its anti-viral effects, as well as terpenes that add to its soothing effects, and other constitutents, such as Flavonoids, Essential (Violate) oil, Bitters, Resin and etc.
The Lemon balm Extract used in dietary supplements is derived from the leaves of Melissa officinalis L.
