Description

Lemonbalm has been traditionally used for spepsia associated with anxiety and/or a depressive mood. It is indicated for someone with symptoms typical of hyperthyroidism (inhibits TSH binding to receptors): anxiety, restlessness, palpitations, headache, and excitability and also is a mild anti-depressant. It strengthens the brain and its resistance to stress/shock, and lifts the spirits. It has tonic effects on the heart and circulatory system and can be used topically for herpes and other viral infections. Lemon Balm has also been used topically for gout and internally for rheumatism and neuralgias. Use as a tea, poultice, or compress.*  

Lemon Balm has a delicate lemony flavor that can be added to jam, jellies, salads, and various fish and poultry dishes. It makes an enjoyable tea by itself or added to other herbs. Lemon balm leaf is delicious when brewed with a black iced tea, as you would mint.
