Lemon Balm Organic Loose Leaf - Sweet Lemony - Dried Mellisa Officinialis 50g

Product Information

Good airflow is essential, so multiple, small bundles of only 4-5 stems are better than one big bundle. Fresh leaves need to be used soon after harvesting, but if you’ve got dried lemon balm in your cupboard you can brew up a cup any time of year.

This renewable, plant-sourced bag is made from PEFC/FSC® certified wood pulp and meets both industrial and home composting standards. Kept cool and dry, your Natureflex bag will last and be useful for general purpose, such as storage of dried goods. com, the Sell on Etsy app, and the Etsy app, as well as the electricity that powers Etsy’s global offices and employees working remotely from home in the US.

Ideally you can bring it to a boil and then let it sit for a minute or two before adding it to your leaves. Some possible health benefits of lemon balm tea include reducing stress and anxiety levels, helping with insomnia, providing indigestion and nausea relief, and more. Lemon balm is rich in the volatile oils citral and citronellal, both of which are well known for their calming and antispasmodic properties. As such, the Moral Fibres workspace is powered by renewable energy, and Moral Fibres also funds renewable energy and tree-planting projects every month.

I know that teas are a good, gentle way of dosing herbs, but I’m not a huge tea fan myself, so prefer other forms first.

Let your ideas become your favourite creations and tag us in your images so we know you have stopped by. The plants have the highest amount of healthy antioxidants and essential oils at this time resulting in better flavor.

If making with dried leaves, add about 2 tablespoons, and crush them with your fingers before adding. Pruning like this encourages the lemon balm plant to produce new shoots and maintains a source of pollen for the bees.

To air-dry lemon balm plant, gather 5-6 stems together and tie them up around the stem with a piece of string. Studies also show that lemon balm tea may help reduce anxiety and depression by targeting the nervous system ( 1). Needless to say, I follow this, and I applaud your responses to those asking about their Hypothyroidism. A caution is that lemongrass needs to be avoided by pregnant women, since it can start menstrual flow/cause miscarriage. Hi – I’m trying to make the lemon balm tincture and I wanted to share my result to make sure it seems right.
