PureCalm Ingredients: Review of Scientific Evidence

We have found scientific studies confirming the effectiveness of PureCalm herbal components.

  • 1. Melissa officinalis (Lemon Balm)
    Lemon balm is classified as a stimulating nervine, or nerve tonic, and though it has a soothing effect on the nervous system and alleviates anxiety. It was used in the Middle Ages to reduce stress and anxiety, promote sleep, improve appetite, and ease pain and discomfort associated with digestion (including flatulence and bloating as well as colic).

    Several studies have found that Lemon balm combined with other calming herbs helps reduce anxiety (2), stress (1) and promote sleep (3).

    In a double-blind, placebo-controlled study (1), 18 healthy participants received two separate single doses of a standardized lemon balm extract (300 mg and 600 mg) or placebo for 7 days. The 600 mg dose of lemon balm increased mood and significantly increased calmness and alertness.

  • 2. Lavandula angustifolia (Lavender)
    Lavender is best known for its soothing properties and as a tonic to support the nervous system.

    Lavender aromatherapy is traditionally used for relaxation (2, 3). It is reported to help relieve anxiety in several small studies, although negative results have also been reported (4, 5).

    Preliminary research suggests that lavender may be helpful as an adjunct to prescription antidepressant medications (7).

    There is now scientific evidence that aromatherapy with lavender may slow the activity of the nervous system and improve sleep quality (1, 6).
