Often said to help ease stress<br />
and anxiety, Lemon Balm<br />
contains rosmarinic acid.<br />
The herb is also used for<br />
insomnia, cold sores, high<br />
cholesterol, genital herpes,<br />
indigestion, and heartburn.<br />
In essential oil form, the<br />
scent of Lemon Balm is used<br />
to reduce stress. Preliminary<br />
studies suggest that Lemon<br />
Balm extract may inhibit<br />
cholinesterase (the<br />
same mechanism as drugs<br />
that are used for mild to<br />
moderate Alzheimer’s<br />
disease) and also reduce<br />
damage from beta-amyloid<br />
(the protein that builds to<br />
form plaques).
