Melissa officinalis
Lemon balm is a lemon-scented herb from the mint family that has been used medicinally for over 2,000 years.

Lemon balm (Melissa officinalis) is a lemon-scented herb from the mint family, traditionally used for over 2,000 years to promote calmness and cognitive function. Its primary modern applications include anxiety relief, sleep support, and topical treatment for cold sores, attributed to active compounds such as rosmarinic acid, citral, and flavonoids.
Lemon balm exerts anxiolytic and sedative effects primarily through modulation of GABA-A receptors, enhancing chloride ion conductance and reducing neuronal excitability. Rosmarinic acid and flavonoids inhibit GABA transaminase, increasing GABA levels, while citral and citronellal contribute to antiviral activity against herpes simplex virus by disrupting viral envelope integrity. Additionally, its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory actions support neuroprotection and digestive soothing.
