Passionflower

Passionflower (Passiflora incarnata) is a climbing vine used traditionally in the Americas and Europe as a calming herb for anxiety, insomnia, seizures, and hysteria.

Why We Use It

Passionflower supplements are often marketed as relaxation aids, and some researchers believe they may help with:
Anxiety
Passionflower may help reduce nonspecific anxiety and anxiety before surgery or dental procedures by increasing levels of gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the brain, which lowers the activity of some brain cells and can make you feel more relaxed.
Insomnia
Passionflower is often marketed as a relaxation aid and supplement to treat insomnia.
Withdrawal Used for Pain Management
Passionflower extracts may help with withdrawal syndromes associated with opiates or benzodiazepines by lessening the anxiety felt during withdrawal.It’s an essential amino acid that plays a key role in the proper functioning of your nervous system.
