Bee balm is known for its antispasmodic, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial actions. Additionally, it strengthens the heart and the circulatory system, causing vasodilation, resulting in reduced blood pressure. Its contribution to fighting viruses is considered very important. Research even confirms its effectiveness in cases of herpes simplex. It is an extremely effective plant in cases of insomnia, intense stress, tension, and irritability, and can even help people with depression, thanks to its soothing and relaxing properties.
Among its actions is also relief from digestive disorders. Bee balm balm is also considered to calm the overactive thyroid gland (Graves' disease). Moreover, because bee balm clears the mind, enhances perception, and strengthens memory, it has been shown to be beneficial in patients with Alzheimer's. Finally, due to its ability to act against pain in nerve endings, bee balm is recommended for people with headaches, migraines, and other pains (e.g. period pains, toothaches, intestinal colic).
Usage: Pour 1-2 teaspoons of the sweet in a cup of hot water, steep it (infusion) for 7-10 minutes, strain it, and drink it.
