Pacify Anxiety With Passionflower
Reasearch has shown that passionflower contains a variety of mild tranquilizing compounds, and extracts of the herb have been shown to be effective as prescription drugs in relieving anxiety symptoms. Unlike anti anxiety drugs, passionflower does not have negaatif side effects, such as inpairment of job performance.
PassionFlower should not be used during pregnancy because compounds in the herbs (halmala alkaloids) are uterine stimulants. If you are taking prescription sedatives or monoamine oxidase inhibitory (MAOI) anti-depressants, check with your health care practitioner before using passionflower.
