What Are The Health Benefits Of Using Passionflower?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Passionflower fruit and tops have been used for generations because of their calming effects.  Since Spanish colonial days in South America, Jesuit priests used this herb to calm the nerves, and it is said that American Natives knew of its gifts, as well.  

    It makes an excellent poultice to treat bruises and the tea made from the vines mitigates anxiety.  

    Although its use has fallen out of vogue in the United States, it is still popular in Europe.  The tea treats tension, fatigue, insomnia, muscle spasms, and hyperactivity in children.
