Lemon Balm Anxiety Meta-AnalysisPremature infants suffer from conditions such as necrotising enterocolitis and sepsis, whose risk is reduced by breastmilk.1Cragg A (2025)Herbal galactagogues to improve breastmilk production and lactation in mothers of preterm babies: a systematic review of clinical trials.
Lemon Balm Anxiety Meta-AnalysisThere was low certainty evidence of an increase in milk volumes by day 7 of the intervention period with barley malt and lemon balm (mean difference 149 ml, 95% CI: 38-260); silymarin in combination with phosphatidylserine and Galega (mean difference 105 ml, 95% CI: 27-183); Pimpinella anisum seed tea (mean difference 98 ml, 95% CI: 63-133); and Latuca sativa (lettuce) syrup (mean difference 82 ml, 95% CI: 60-105).1Cragg A (2025)Herbal galactagogues to improve breastmilk production and lactation in mothers of preterm babies: a systematic review of clinical trials.
Lemon Balm Anxiety Meta-AnalysisThere is low certainty evidence that Barley malt with lemon balm, silymarin phytosomes with Galega, Pimpinella anisum seed tea, Moringa oleifera leaf capsules and Latuca sativa (lettuce) syrup increase breastmilk production.1Cragg A (2025)Herbal galactagogues to improve breastmilk production and lactation in mothers of preterm babies: a systematic review of clinical trials.
