Lemon Balm
Herbalist & Alchemist Lemon Balm is a botanical supplement, containing fresh Lemon Balm flowering tops extract at 5.000mg per 3 mL serving. This product received an N+ Score of 45, earning an 'F' grade, indicating a below-average quality assessment. The low score is largely due to the lack of standardization for the extract, which makes it difficult to determine the concentration of specific active compounds like rosmarinic acid, commonly associated with Lemon Balm's studied benefits. While the product is transparent about its single ingredient, the absence of clinical dosing information for this specific extract form means its efficacy cannot be directly aligned with scientific studies. This product may appeal to individuals seeking a simple Lemon Balm extract for general wellness, acknowledging its low quality score.
