This sedative has anxiolytic, antidepressant, antispasmodic, immunomodulatory, antiviral, antiallergic and antimicrobial properties. The wide range of therapeutic effects of lemon balm preparations is due to the content of the various biologically active substances shown above: a pronounced sedative effect - citronellal, antispasmodic properties - geraniol and citronellol, phenylpropanoids (rosmarinic, caffeic, chlorogenic and other hydroxycinnamic acids) should be considered as responsible for antiviral, immunomodulatory, antihistamine, antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. The plant is recommended as an antiemetic for pregnant women, a diuretic and an appetite enhancer. Magnesium is an inorganic element that is present in all cells of the body during its normal state. Magnesium is an essential element for cell life and is involved in most metabolic reactions. From a physiological point of view, magnesium is a cation with a predominant intracellular localization. Magnesium ions reduce the excitability of neurons, play an important physiological role in maintaining ionic balance in muscles, slow down neuromuscular transmission, and participate in many enzymatic reactions. Magnesium deficiency in the body is manifested by muscle weakness, tremor, tetany, ataxia, increased reflex excitability, irritability, sleep disorders, heart rhythm disturbances with extrasystoles or tachycardia, digestive tract disorders with diarrhea. Deficiency can be primary due to a congenital disorder of magnesium metabolism and secondary due to lack of intake, as well as due to poor gastrointestinal absorption, excessive renal excretion and when the need for magnesium increases (with increased physical and mental stress, stress, pregnancy). Pyridoxine (vitamin B6) as a coenzyme is involved in many metabolic processes and in the regulation of nervous system metabolism. Promotes faster absorption of magnesium from the gastrointestinal tract, penetration and retention of magnesium in cells. Indications Increased nervous excitability; nervous tension; irritability; feeling of anxiety and depression; functional manifestations of anxiety attacks with hyperventilation; increased fatigue; cardiopalmus; sleep disturbance, insomnia, depression; pain and muscle spasms, gastrointestinal spasms.
