Why valerian and lemon balm? Valerian (Valeriana officinalis) is a herbaceous plant with white to pink flowers that grows in Europe and parts of Asia. Valerian root has been used for centuries to help reduce the time it takes to fall asleep and for its contribution to normal psychological function.* The root extract contains valepotriates, baldrinal, essential oils, and terpenes such as valerenic acid. While all components contribute to its effect, valerenic acid is the most significant. Valerian root has virtually no side effects, which is why it is still widely used today as a natural remedy to support normal psychological function and reduce the time it takes to fall asleep.* Melissa officinalis, commonly known as lemon balm, is native to Europe, North Africa, and Asia. The plant has a fresh, lemony aroma, making it useful for infusions and flavoring dishes. Lemon balm was traditionally used over 2,000 years ago by the Greeks and Romans, and from there its use spread throughout Europe. The truth is that, in addition to its pleasant aroma, lemon balm also offers a number of health benefits. For example, this plant contributes to the protection of cells against oxidative damage and to normal psychological functioning.* In addition, like valerian, lemon balm helps to reduce the time it takes to fall asleep and contributes to normal psychological functioning.* This effect is specifically attributed to its most important component, rosmarinic acid. Lemon balm also contains other flavonoids, terpenes (such as citronella and citral), essential oils and polyphenols. Valerian and Melissa enhance each other, making them synergistic. Synergistic nutrients and herbs have the advantage of working better together than individually, in a kind of cooperation. This means that the combination of Valeriana officinalis and Melissa officinalis helps reduce the time it takes to fall asleep and supports normal psychological function.* The benefits of valerian and lemon balm extract from Bonusan The plant extracts in this product are of natural origin and standardized to 0.8% valerenic acid and 5% rosmarinic acid, ensuring a guaranteed minimum amount of active substances.
