Traditional Medicinals Organic Lemon Balm Tea is a caffeine-free, single-herb herbal tea crafted specifically to calm the nervous system and soothe occasional digestive upset.
Often nicknamed the "Bringer of Gladness" by early herbalists, lemon balm is highly regarded for gently lifting the mood and relieving daily tension without causing heavy sedation.
Key Product Details
- Quantity: One box contains 16 individually wrapped tea bags.
- Taste Profile: It has a pleasantly mild, herbaceous flavor with subtle, sweet notes of citrus. This natural citrus aroma comes from the plant's high concentration of essential oils (like citral and citronellal) rather than added flavorings.
-
Quality Standards: The product is USDA Certified Organic, Non-GMO Project Verified, Kosher, and made from 100% organic lemon balm leaf (
per bag).
Core Wellness Benefits
- Nervous System Support: It is a "nervine" herb, meaning it helps quiet a frazzled nervous system, reduces occasional stress, and eases minor tension before bedtime.
- Digestive Comfort: It functions as a carminative herb, which helps soothe the stomach, ease minor spasms, and relieve occasional indigestion or bloating.
How to Brew It Properly
To extract the maximum amount of beneficial essential oils from the leaf, the brand recommends a specific steeping method:
- Pour 8 oz of freshly boiled water over one tea bag.
- Cover the cup while it steeps for 5 to 10 minutes (this traps the therapeutic steam and oils inside your mug).
- Gently squeeze the tea bag as you remove it to ensure all the herbal goodness is in your cup.
Safety Note: Because it promotes relaxation, it can occasionally cause light drowsiness in sensitive individuals. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it's always best to check with your healthcare provider before adding it to your regular routine.
