Benefits
 

Passionflower increases the level of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the body, which slows down brain function and reduces signals in the central nervous system. This natural sedative promotes a feeling of calmness and relaxation, making it an excellent choice for those struggling with anxiety or stress.

Studies have shown that passionflower tea has benefits for other health issues too, including:
