Melissa-Lemon Balm Leaf

This brand really works and it really made feel good and had no issues with the smell and it gave me great sleep. This was easy to digest and tasted fine..

I was looking for something natural to help with stress, and these Lemon Balm capsules are incredible. I take one before bed, and it helps me fully unwind without feeling groggy the next morning.

these work very good. it says take three but I would often take two and they are very relaxing

Less strange vivid dreams than other brand, higher dose per pill, yet less somnolence than other formulary of Melissa Lemonbalm, & the other was in a white bottle with green leaf, so had to be same brand. Makes no sense but this square bottle of higher dose per pill just causes less sleepiness -- wgich is why people take the stuff. Makes no sense, but at least the dreams it causes are less exhausting. The old formulation of this by same company made dreams like you were running in them all night & woke exhausted. This one in square bottle, obviously a different batch, different crop, with different effect, i can take more of it, but causes less sleepiness=bad. But less tiring, exhaustive running in dreams=good (less side effect of odd dreams,being chased). So this is why 4 stars & not 5. I am sure this is same company, but higher strength per pill, yet less sleepiness but also less bad side effects too. 4 stars.

My acupuncture doctor recommended this product. It helps me relax and fall asleep. Love this product.

I was so surprised when I started taking this products from this brand- to find that it actually helped with calming & sleep & mood & anxiety & depression. I didn't realize that lemon balm was so amazing, even though I had heard about it for years. After I took it daily for a month or two & discovered the amazing benefits, I bought it again but went with a different brand that was organic, thinking organic would be better. After a month or so on the new lemon balm from zazze, anxiety and depression etc came back. & eventually I realized that the new supplement wasn't working. So I just bought this Nature's Way lemon balm again & I was shocked to compare the two pills. If you look at the picture you will see that the Nature's Way is green, the way a herbal supplement from a leaf should be; but the other brand isn't green at all. The smell is also different; the Nature's Way 1 smells like herbs. Anyway, I just wanted to share this stuff actually works and even though it's not organic , it's probably pesticide-free ... it definitely is fresh... It does say it's non-GMO... often companies don't pay the high fees for the organic labeling, which can be scammed anyway, but they still don't use pesticides. I am very sensitive to pesticides, so I feel certain these are pesticide free even if it's not labeled organic regardless , they work and I will be sticking with this brand.... Unless I can go find or grow some lemon balm which I know grows everywhere

Jury is out on this product. seems to give me the burps after taking. Not sure it helps much either but I will try it again

Melissa officinalis (Lemon Balm) is a herb/tea traditionally said to induce calmness and improve cognition. It does appear effective at inducing calmness and reducing anxiety, but the cognitive enhancing properties are variable (appears to benefit if stressed, but otherwise it is merely sedative). Melissa officinalis (Lemon Balm) is a herb that has traditionally been used for a variety of cognitive purposes, most of which are centered around improving cognition and reducing stress and anxiety. It is said to calm the nerves and to relax the body. In regards to its subjective cognitive effects, it appears to be effective in inducing calmness. This may also manifest itself in a negative manner as healthy persons who take Lemon Balm prior to a cognitive test appear to score worse than placebo on reaction time and memory formation (possibly related to sedation) while improving the quality of memories (amount of correct memories formed, rather than 'remembering' something that didn't happen). Only one study looked at contentment, but found no influence. Theoretically, calmness inducing agents should also help in sleep. We currently have one study suggesting that the anxiety-reducing properties can help people who have anxiety-related insomnia but beyond that most sleep research is confounded with Valeriana officinalis as the two are theoretically (not yet demonstrated) additive or synergistic. Overall, the cognitive enhancing properties of Lemon Balm appear to be somewhat overhyped. It has been shown to enhance the memory quality yet (possibly due to its sedative effects) it reduces quantititatively how many memories are formed and the rate thereof. Currently, Lemon Balm appears to be supported for inducing calmness and relaxation but other claims may need more research.
