Lemon balm?

Because I will be gone tomorrow, I am posting this the evening before. Wouldn't it be wonderful if a household herb would prove to be helpful to people with dementia?

"In a small study published in Neuropsycholopharmacology, 20 healthy young adults reported increased memory and improved mood after ingesting lemon balm," AARP, July/August 2010.

The article goes on to say "another study found similar results among Alzheimer's patients."

This might be worth a visit to Neuropsycholopharmacology to see how one utilizes the lemon balm and what the study says about the use of it with dementia.
