Health benefits and medicinal uses of lemon balm
Overview
Lemon balm (Melissa officinalis) is recognized for various health benefits, particularly in reducing stress, anxiety, and improving sleep quality. It has also been noted for potential cardiovascular benefits, such as reducing blood pressure and improving circulation.
Recent research has specifically explored the plant's ability to reduce anxiety and the frequency of benign heart palpitations. While the European Medicines Agency recognizes lemon balm as a traditional herbal medicinal product for mild stress and sleep aid, experts have cautioned against social media claims regarding immediate effects from single leaves. Instead, clinical evidence supports the use of standardized oral extracts over time, though researchers note variation in study results.
