We prepare our Lemon Balm Extract from the fresh (undried) leaf & flowering tops of Melissa officinalis plants which are Certified Organically Grown on our own farm without the use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides or herbicides.
To assure optimal extraction of Lemon Balm's bioactive compounds, the tops of the plants are hand-harvested when just beginning to flower and are then taken directly to our laboratory and promptly extracted while still fresh and succulent.
Our Lemon Balm is never fumigated or irradiated.
Fresh herb / menstruum ratio: 1 : 1.5
Contains certified organic grain alcohol, vegetable glycerine & Lemon Balm extractives.
Suggested use:

DR. BERGLUND'S COMMENTS: I have found this to be helpful in some cases of viral infections like herpes, but primarily I use this to help suppress thyroid function when I think it's running too high or to help patients get to sleep at night. The other hyperthyroid and insomnia herbs I use include: bugleweed and bugleweed motherwort.
