OVERVIEW:
Passionflower, also commonly known as maypop, is gentle yet its benefits are profound and numerous. As a tea, it is fresh tasting with a pleasant, floral note and goes well with fruit peels, berries, and flowers. Passionflower is cooling to the body, calming to the mind, and soothing to the spirit and is best known for its relaxing and calming effects. Because it is powerfully antioxidant, it is also used in alternative medicine to help treat stomach problems, bring relief to women who are experiencing menopause symptoms and help relieve insomnia and anxiety to name a few health benefits.
