BulkSupplements.com Lemon Balm Extract Powder - Melissa Officinalis, Lemon Balm Powder - Vegan & Gluten Free, 1g per Serving, 100g (3.5 oz) (Pack of 1)

I love lemon balm. It's a tonic remedy that improves your mood and has calming, anti-anxiety properties. It helps with mild depression, restlessness, and irritability. It reduces feelings of nervousness and panic, and it quiets a racing heart while calming the central nervous system. It's a useful remedy for heart palpitations of a nervous origin. It's also great for easing digestive problems like stomachache, indigestion, acidity, nausea and bloating. It helps nausea due to emotional problems. Lemon balm also relieves cold sores and reduces the chances of further outbreaks. It also has an antithyroid effect, so it's given to those with an overactive thyroid. The lemon balm herb and the essential oil both smell sweet and lemony. But this extract powder smells and tastes very different. It's very bitter, slightly brown, and is a bit sticky on your fingers the way mushroom powders usually are. I would recommend ingesting this extract in capsules or blending it in with something sweeter to bypass the raw taste. Lemon Balm infusions help relieve nervous headaches, the tincture helps relieve anxiety and mild depression, and the essential oil mixed with olive oil helps relieve pain from shingles, flu with muscle aches, and other painful conditions. Overall lemon balm is a really excellent remedy for multiple issues, and I believe this extract powder is of good quality. I mixed the lemon balm, L-theanine, GABA, Maca, Vitamin C, MSM, Astragalus, and Choline into Emergen-C Immune vitamin powder. I added water, shook the bottle, and drank it down. It tasted pretty good and I got this immense feeling of wellbeing, of total relaxation, and calm. It was pretty instant and I found myself smiling, even though I hadn't slept for 2 days. I went right to sleep afterwards and slept so hard. It was great!

Good and sturdy packaging. The powder itself is very fine so be careful when take measurements out of the bag. I’ve been mixing it in water. I recommend blending it or shaking it in a shaker bottle for several minutes because it can clump and stick to everything. I use this for sleep and it works for clearing my thoughts and giving me longer sleep periods. A good alternative for melatonin.

Bought 1st on March 31, 2024. It was light yellow, tasted and smelled like lemon balm. Bought again November 14th, 2024. This batch is dark brown, smells sweet (I see dextrose is added), does not smell like lemon balm. This is gross. I'm afraid to eat it. I tasted it. Definitely tastes worse than the original batch that had no Dextrose. They must've added the Dextrose to make up for a batch going bad, trying to make it taste better. Sorry, BulkSupplements, I used to buy a lot of things from you, but I think I'm moving on to MicroIngredients...I've had to move to them for many things you've been botching lately, and now Lemon Balm is another product I won't be buying from you anymore. This is very sad.

I could not be more pleased. This is a high-quality powder at a wonderful price. I have been enjoying a couple of cups of Lemon Balm tea before bed in the evenings - this powder dissolves thoroughly and makes a delicate, soothing tea :)

So far so good. I'm not sure if it's working or not working just yet; it's still a little too early to tell. The powder mixes easily and there's no taste. I mix it with some flavored fizzy water along with a couple of more Bulk Supplement powders: GABA and L-Theanine. It does fizz up at times, but that's the carbonation in the fizzy water. I am trying to duplicate the Olly Stress Reducer stuff; and I think that it's pretty close. Is it worth buying the powders from Bulk Supplements? Yes, absolutely worth buying and trying!!!

I gave this a try for a low grade general anxiety I felt on a regular basis...for no particular “reason”. I just felt uneasy and/or self conscious. And I’m a secure, confident woman, so I don’t know why. I even had a pain pill habit for a few years, which I quit 10 yrs ago with the help of Suboxone. I had tried all kinds of “brain” supplements through the years, to feel happy and balanced (and I don’t have bipolar or depression etc.) Nothing I’ve tried made me feel any different....until THIS! I’m so grateful I tried it. The day it arrived I mixed some in my tea. It smells/tastes awesome...like that instant Lipton lemony tea. And mixes in easily. I mix maybe half a teaspoon into my AM coffee, and maybe half teaspoon in my tea later. Maybe less would be enough but who cares! I’ve used it about 3 weeks now, and have NOT ONCE had this general anxiety/self conscious feeling! I just feel “normal”, balanced, and well-adjusted. If you feel like I did, you should definitely try it. It’s made a huge difference. *UPDATE 5-5-20. Been close to a year and happy to report still no anxiety! None!

does the job...but in a drain all motivation kinda way Beware, those with thyroid issues 😥

Helps my high energy husband sleep. Works differently for me,I am the type coffee makes me sleep, I was learry hormone changes have me experiencing so much as far as activity and sleepyness,well this brings me a unique calm and smooth alertness awake and somehow smoothly not jittery alert. Difficult to explain smooth I like it!
