User Reviews for passionflower

I take passionflower everyday for both my anxiety and insomnia. I plan on continuing to use it for a very long time, as it had helped immensely with both! I make tea out of it as it seems to be the best economical decision for the long run. I have 3-4 cups throughout the day with a tablespoon or a bit more of the dried herb, and usually have two cups at once a little while before bed. This helps with my social anxiety, generalised anxiety, and my insomnia. It works better for the anxiety, but it gets me relaxed enough to encourage sleep. The tea: The dried herb I have is of cheaper and not as high quality as others I have had, so I adjust measurements as needed. Ingredients: - 1-2 tablespoons dried passionflower - 6-8 oz water - Honey to taste (optional) Bring the water to a boil, either in a mug in the microwave or on the stove, remove from heat, and add passionflower. Cover and allow to steep for 10 minutes. (If you have a tea ball or tea mug infuser for loose teas, use it. If not, you will have to strain the passionflower out by hand using a strainer.) Remove passionflower, stir in honey or your sweetener of choice, and enjoy! I highly recommend this to anyone, health permitting. Read More Read Less

Did nothing for insomnia, and has given me a severe headache.

i tried one liquid phytocap preparation a couple of hours before bed along with 30 drops of a non-alcoholic prep of valerian root. it is very strong--i am still sleepy after 12 hours of sleep. i will try them separately at smaller doses next time.

OMG this makes me tired about 2 hours or less after taking; good for me as otherwise I stay up way too late! However I wouldn't want to drive if taking this feel very drowsy and my eyes are closing, and this is after a full 8 hours sleep and not a hard day.

Unlike most people here, I take Passion Flower pills as a muscle relaxer. I have severe back cramps and did not want to take pharmeceutical muscle relaxers. I researched natural muscle relaxers and found Passion Flower to be most effective with least amount of side effects. This decision has been life altering for me as the cramps in my back were getting more painful and debilitating.

Diagnosed with PTSD and GAD 6 months ago. I take a liquid form with 1:1 ratio of flower to alcohol. The anxiety goes away. Some sleepiness occurs. I take 40 drops each time. With green tea in the morning and water in the afternoon and at night. I dont have many problems with sleep. Nervousness is manageable with it. Slight feeling of "tipsy", slow reaction time.

effects very similar to low doseage of xanax.

I had been suffering from severe anxiety that was upsetting my stomach and preventing me from eating much for about a week. I had 30 drops of passion flower in warm water, which had an odd taste, but a few hours later I felt calm and more hungry than I had in weeks.

I had anxiety that was causing my hiatal hernia muscles to contract and prevented me from eating food or drinking. This went on for a month before I tried Pssionflower. I now take 500mg. daily and viola! I can now eat and drink. Plus my mood is greatly improved as well as my level of energy. This stuff is seriously amazing.

Saw on Dr.OZ..He said only take a couple of drops a day.Lable says 25-35 drops.DO NOT DO THAT. VERY DANGEROUS!!! Also if you are already on an anxiety prescript do not take.I am way calmer on 2 drops a day.Alot sleepier.

In 2 months my cholesteral level went up over 100 points. The only thing I can think of that I did different is taking the Passionflower. Anyone else have this problem? I did seem to help me fall asleep - and stay asleep.

I had been experiencing anxiety starting when I woke up in the morning. I take 30 drops of Nature's Vision Passion Flower when I wake up, then vitamin B Complex with my meal and my anxiety is controlled.

I use the 30 drops as a sleep aid. I don't use it very often (maybe twice a month). I am usually an uneasy sleeper due to stress, but notice when I take it I sleep like a rock with no 'hungover' effect the next day.

I always have suffered from general anxiety, this is the first herbal remedy that has signifigantly helped without side effects (so far!).
