Lemon Balm Extract


Product Description

What is Lemon Balm Extract?

Lemon Balm Extract is a highly refined botanical extract that is specifically extracted from the aerial parts of Melissa officinalis, a perennial mint-flavoured herb, with a unique citrus fragrance. Industrial production usually uses techniques that are more sophisticated and advanced to avoid the use of solvents and steam, so as to preserve the bioactive profile of the plant, which is collected in the form of a fine powder or liquid fine concentrate having a light yellow to deep, earthy brown color. The main active constituent of this extract is rosmarinic acid, a potent phenolic compound which is sometimes standardized to a certain percentage of the extract (usually 1%-5%) together with other volatile terpenes in large amounts, such as citral and geraniol. It has a main role as a natural antioxidant and aromatic stabiliser to offer clean-labelled functional attributes to different product lines. It is currently used as a premium flavoring agent for functional teas and spirits use in the food and beverage industry, as a skin conditioning agent and fragrance booster in cosmetics, and as a standardized raw material for nutraceutical formulations.
