Rosmarinic acid, contributed by lemon balm, spearmint, and peppermint, inhibits GABA transaminase, allowing the calming neurotransmitter GABA to remain active longer. Lemon balm has also been shown to modulate muscarinic and nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, which may contribute to its mood-brightening effects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDigestive Support:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMenthol and carvone from the mint family herbs relax smooth muscle in the gastrointestinal tract, easing bloating, cramping, and gas.
