Key Benefits of Superfoods, Antioxidants, and Adaptogen-Rich Ingredients

• RELISSA Lemon Balm Phytosome (Melissa officinalis): A patented lemon balm extract complexed with phospholipids via Phytosome technology, supporting enhanced solubility and absorption of lemon balm's active rosmarinic acid and flavonoid compounds compared to standard lemon balm preparations.
• Rosmarinic Acid (from Lemon Balm): Supports normal GABA-transaminase inhibition, which promotes healthy GABA activity in the central nervous system; GABA is the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter involved in normal relaxation, calm, and sleep onset.
• Normal Relaxation and Calm Support: Lemon balm's active compounds support normal GABAergic activity and promote a calm mental state, supporting healthy relaxation during periods of occasional stress and mental tension.
• Healthy Stress Response Support: Supports the body's normal adaptive response to occasional psychological and environmental stress through GABAergic and antioxidant mechanisms, promoting healthy mood balance and normal stress resilience.
• Sleep Onset and Sleep Quality Support: Promotes normal sleep onset and supports restful sleep quality by supporting healthy GABA activity and normal relaxation of the central nervous system in preparation for sleep.
• Phytosome Delivery Technology: The Phytosome complex binds lemon balm extract to phospholipids, creating a lipid-compatible delivery system that supports enhanced solubility and bioavailability compared to standard lemon balm extracts, which may have limited absorption in conventional forms.
• Non-Habit-Forming Daily Support: Formulated as a well-tolerated, non-habit-forming supplement suitable for daily use as part of a comprehensive sleep and stress wellness protocol.
• Antioxidant Activity: Lemon balm's rosmarinic acid and flavonoid compounds promote normal antioxidant activity, supporting healthy cellular protection alongside the formula's primary relaxation and sleep support benefits.

Why This Formula Matters

Enzymedica's Sleep & Stress uses RELISSA Lemon Balm Phytosome, a patented ingredient that addresses one of the primary limitations of standard lemon balm supplementation: poor bioavailability of its active rosmarinic acid and flavonoid compounds in conventional extract forms. By complexing lemon balm with phospholipids through Phytosome technology, RELISSA supports enhanced solubility and absorption, allowing the active compounds to reach systemic circulation more efficiently and support GABAergic activity at clinically relevant levels. Lemon balm's mechanism of action through GABA-transaminase inhibition provides a distinct, well-characterized pathway for supporting normal relaxation and sleep that complements other sleep support approaches without the concerns associated with habit-forming compounds.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is lemon balm and how does it support sleep and stress?

Lemon balm (Melissa officinalis) is an herb in the mint family that has been used traditionally for centuries to support relaxation and calm. Its primary active compound, rosmarinic acid, supports normal GABA-transaminase inhibition, which promotes healthy GABA activity in the central nervous system. GABA is the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter involved in normal relaxation, calm, and sleep onset, making lemon balm a well-characterized botanical for sleep and stress support.

What is RELISSA Lemon Balm Phytosome and how does it differ from standard lemon balm?

RELISSA is a patented lemon balm extract complexed with phospholipids using Phytosome technology. Standard lemon balm extracts may have limited bioavailability due to the poor solubility of their active compounds. The Phytosome complex creates a lipid-compatible delivery system that supports enhanced solubility and absorption, allowing more of the active rosmarinic acid and flavonoid compounds to reach systemic circulation compared to conventional lemon balm preparations.

How should this product be taken?

Dosing instructions are provided on the product label and should be followed as directed, or as advised by a qualified healthcare practitioner. For sleep support, lemon balm-containing products are typically taken in the evening before the desired sleep time. A healthcare provider can recommend the appropriate dose and timing based on individual sleep patterns, stress levels, and health needs.

Is this product appropriate for individuals who are sensitive to sleep aids?

This formula is non-habit-forming and works through lemon balm's natural GABAergic mechanism rather than through sedative compounds. It is designed to support normal relaxation and sleep onset rather than induce sedation. Individuals with sensitivity to botanical supplements or those taking medications that affect the central nervous system should consult a qualified healthcare practitioner before use.

Can this product be taken alongside other sleep or stress supplements?

If combining with other sleep or stress support supplements, a healthcare practitioner should be consulted to assess total ingredient intake and ensure the combination is appropriate for individual health needs, particularly for supplements that also affect GABAergic or serotonergic pathways.

Is this product third-party tested?

Enzymedica maintains quality standards consistent with cGMP manufacturing practices. For specific testing documentation or certificates of analysis, contact the manufacturer or your authorized distributor directly.
