La Plante Lemon balm
Partie de la plante: Flowering Summit
Origine: France
Lemon balm, whose name evokes honey, is one of our best melliferous plants. A member of the Lamiaceae family, it grows in clumps in southern European gardens at altitudes of up to 1000m. As early as the 10th century, the Arabs used it as a remedy for melancholy. Even today, Lemon Balm is used in the composition of Chartreuse and Eau de Mélisse des Carmes, two preparations that both claim to be true “Elixir of Health”.
Lemon balm is an excellent soothing plant. It is both recommended for aiding digestion and combating melancholy.
At Essenciagua, we distill it at the end of the summer season. This is the moment when, having accumulated essential oil throughout the summer, it reaches an optimal quantity. During distillation of the Essential Oil, we also extract Lemon Balm Hydrosol. The latter is particularly suitable for children and infants to aid digestion.

When my nieces have reflux
My story Feeding time is always a special moment for parents. I myself used to take great pleasure in bottle-feeding my nieces. On the other hand, I was a little distraught when they started crying when I put them back to bed, even though they had seemed quite peaceful just a few minutes before. My sisters reassured me that this happened to them all the time, it was just reflux. So I thought of lemon balm hydrosol, which they tried and adopted straight away! My tip For both reflux and colic,...
