1. Rosmarinic acid
The primary active compound in lemon balm.
A powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory polyphenol.
Helps protect cells from oxidative stress, supports immune balance, and is thought to contribute to lemon balm’s anxiolytic (calming) and mood-stabilising effects by influencing GABA (a calming neurotransmitter) activity in the brain.
2. Flavonoids (e.g. luteolin, apigenin, quercetin derivatives)
Provide antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity.
Support circulation and general cellular protection.
3. Terpenes — particularly citral, citronellal, and geraniol
These are found in the essential oil of lemon balm.
Give the herb its lemony aroma and contribute to relaxing, antispasmodic, and antimicrobial properties.
4. Phenolic acids (e.g. caffeic acid, chlorogenic acid)
Work synergistically with rosmarinic acid to support antioxidant and digestive benefits.
