Passionflower extract is a light brown powdered active ingredient extracted from the whole herb of Passiflora incarnata L., family Passifloraceae. Such as flavonoids, which contain apigenin and lignans, which are the main phytoconstituents of anti-anxiety. These compounds interact with receptors in the human brain, such as GABA receptors, which are involved in the function of anxiety regulation and promote relaxation. In addition, other compounds found in passionflower, such as hamala alkaloids and maltol, also contribute to the therapeutic effects.

Benefits:

Helps with Sleep

Passionflower extract has neuroleptic properties, including mild sedative and anxiolytic effects. In tests conducted in the 1930s, its mode of action is different from that of most sedatives (sleeping pills), making it a non-additive class of herb that promotes relaxation. Passionflower extract shortens sleep latency and prolongs the duration of slow-wave sleep (SWS), suggesting that the plant has hypnotic properties or may be used in the treatment of insomniacs who have difficulty falling asleep.

Passionflower's sedative effects have made it popular in the treatment of a wide range of disorders including nervousness and insomnia. Research indicates that it has a complex effect on the central nervous system (CNS), which may account for its overall neuroleptic effects. Scientific studies have shown that passionflower extract is rich in vitexin. Vitexin is an apigenin flavonoid glycoside that has a variety of pharmacological effects, including antioxidant, pain-relieving, neuroprotective, and sedative effects.

Anxiety Relief

A randomized, double-blind study published in the Journal of Clinical Pharmacy and Therapeutics has shown that passionflower extract is as effective as common anti-anxiety medications in reducing anxiety symptoms. In addition, GABA is a neurotransmitter known for its calming properties, and passionflower extract is relatively high in GABA. Passionflower extract has been shown to enhance the effects of GABA, which is evident in the contribution it can make to anxiety relief.

Antispasmodic

Passionflower extract has an antispasmodic effect on smooth muscles in the body, including the digestive system. In animal experiments, researchers have found that the plant slows down the passage of food through the digestive tract, thus facilitating digestion.

Sedative

Passionflower likewise has an anti-spasmodic effect on smooth muscles in the body, which includes the digestive system. In animal studies, researchers have found that the plant slows the passage of food through the digestive tract, thereby facilitating digestion. Several controlled studies have confirmed the sedative effects of passionflower on the central nervous system. It helps to reduce general anxiety and worry before anaesthesia, dental treatment, and surgery. In a controlled clinical trial at the University of Tehran, Iran, passionflower extract was shown to be as effective as the sedative benzodiazepines in the treatment of generalized anxiety disorder.

Passionflower has a long history of medicinal use, with medicinal values originating with the Indians of the Americas, where it was commonly used to treat insomnia, anxiety and epilepsy. It later spread to Europe and around the world and has been used for a variety of conditions such as anxiety, insomnia, hysteria, neurasthenia, as well as inflammation, cramps, diarrhoea, dysmenorrhoea and neuralgia. Passionflower is currently included in the national pharmacopoeias of the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and Switzerland, and is described in the British Herbal Pharmacopoeia and Compendium of British Herbal Medicines, ESCOP, EMA, the German Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia, and the American Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia.
