I love lemon balm. The young leaves are perfect to make a delicious tea. I completely cut it down three or four times every season, and it grows back so fast.

On top of that, it keeps mosquitos away, and it smells great!.

Lemon Balm As A NaturalMedicine

Lemon balm is also being used as a natural medicine.

  • It releaves digesrive problems, such as bloating, upset stomach, vomiting and intestinal gas

  • it helps to releave menstrual cramps, toothaches and headaches

  • it is used for mental.problems, including melancholia, stress, anxiety and hysteria

  • It prevents problems with heart and liver

  • It is also used against high cholesterol and even insomnia


Lemon Balm Tea
Lemon balm tea is very easy to make.

Simply add 1 heaped tablespoon of dried leaves (or two tablespoons when the leaves are still fresh) to a cup of boiling water.

Let it rest for a while, and add honey to sweeten the tea

Lemon balm is really magical in curing stomach and stress anxiety problem.

I didn’t see lemon balm in the stores here, in US. I will double check though. I use lemon grass, similar health benefits. 😊

A fav of mine as well! Grows so easily and has such a sweet sweet scent. A true balm 💚🌿
