The agroecological lemon balm extract supports and helps maintain normal sleep and contributes to relaxation. A gently processed natural supplement for everyday balance of body and mind.
Agroecological Extract for Inner Balance
Feeling drained, irritable, or low on energy?
In these moments, nature can help – especially lemon balm (Melissa officinalis), a traditional herb known for its calming properties and support for mental well-being.
- Promotes relaxation and calm
- Supports normal nervous system function
- Traditionally used to improve sleep and reduce anxiety
Why Choose an Alcohol-Free Lemon Balm Extract?
Unlike conventional tinctures, this extract contains 0% alcohol. It uses a plant-based glycerin base that naturally preserves active compounds, softens the taste, and enhances absorption through the oral mucosa.
- ✔ Suitable for those avoiding alcohol – ideal for sensitive individuals
- ✔ Glycerin base – mild, slightly sweet taste with no bitterness, throat burn, or stomach irritation
- ✔ Fast-acting – thanks to absorption via the oral mucosa
- ✔ Made from fresh lemon balm in a 1:1 ratio – for maximum concentration of active ingredients
- ✔ Expertly formulated extract – purity-tested, made in the UK
Due to its high concentration, we recommend consulting a doctor if pregnant, breastfeeding, or suffering from chronic conditions. Suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
