LEMON VERBENA EXTRACT (28:1) 400mg

What is lemon verbena extract?

Lemon Verbena Extract (28:1) 400mg from EssentialSeries is a food supplement made from lemon verbena, zinc, and vitamin B12.

Lemon verbena (Lippia citriodora) is a plant traditionally used for its properties, ideal for those looking for a natural aid to fall asleep or reduce tension. We have developed a highly concentrated extract, standardised in verbascosides, to support rest, help reduce irritability and restlessness, and protect against oxidative stress caused by factors such as environmental pollution or sun exposure.

Discover the high-quality extract we bring you from HSN.

Natural support for rest and wellbeing

Relax and sleep better

During times of increased mental load or particularly demanding days, finding a state of calm and restful sleep can be challenging. Lemon verbena is traditionally used to help fall asleep. Its traditional use is linked to a natural action, ideal for those looking to unwind at the end of the day in a practical way. Thanks to its content of verbascosides, which give it functional value, lemon verbena is used to support sleep and help reduce tension. This combination of properties makes the Lippia citriodora extract a natural aid for those seeking to support their emotional wellbeing and nightly rest.

Calm when you need it most

We have developed a formula with vitamin B12, in its methylcobalamin form, which contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system and normal psychological function, and also helps reduce tiredness and fatigue. Zinc, on the other hand, contributes to normal cognitive function and protects cells from oxidative damage, which is especially relevant in situations of sustained stress.

This synergy makes our extract a complete ally to help you cope with tense moments more calmly.

Concentrated and standardised extract: premium quality

Not all plant extracts are the same, and at HSN we’re clear about that. In our supplement, you’ll find raw material of the highest purity and concentration, designed to offer what has always defined us: premium quality at a fair price.

•  400mg of lemon verbena leaf extract per capsule: a precise daily dose that concentrates the plant’s full phytochemical richness.
•  28:1 extraction ratio: this means that each capsule is equivalent to 11,200mg of fresh Lippia citriodora leaf, ensuring a high density of natural nutritional compounds.
•  Standardised to 10% verbascosides: verbascosides are the main polyphenolic fraction in lemon verbena. Their standardisation ensures you always receive a nutritionally active extract, guaranteeing quality and safety of use, every time.

Our standardised formulation not only reflects high quality control, but also represents our commitment to transparency and the functional relevance of our products.

Functional synergy with zinc and vitamin B12

•  Zinc: essential for our body, this mineral supports normal immune function and protects cells from oxidative damage. It also contributes to normal cognitive function, which is highly valuable during times of mental overload.
•  Vitamin B12 (methylcobalamin): in its high-absorption form, this B vitamin supports normal nervous system function and normal psychological function. It also helps reduce tiredness and fatigue, aiding recovery of balance during demanding periods.

Both nutrients act as strategic allies in a formula designed not only to harness the specific actions of lemon verbena, but also to support general wellbeing through a holistic approach.

Clean veggie label, made for you

This formula has been developed with a clean label approach: transparent and designed to offer you just what you need, without unnecessary additives or superfluous ingredients.

•  100% plant-based: We use vegetable-based capsules, with no gelatine or animal components, making them suitable for vegan and vegetarian diets.
•  No colourants, no fillers, no unnecessary ingredients: each ingredient plays a real role in the formula. No colourants, opacity agents or aesthetic additives have been added.
