Passionflower (Passiflora incarnata) is indigenous to many tropical and semi-tropical areas - from South America to North America. Passion fruit is enjoyed by all rainforest inhabitants - humans and animals alike. Indigenous tribes throughout the Amazon have long used passionflower leaves for its sedative and pain-relieving properties.
Passionflower (as well as its harmane alkaloids) have been the subject of much scientific research. After almost 100 years of study the sedative, antispasmodic and analgesic effects of this tropical vine have been firmly established in science. The analgesic effects of passionflower were first clinically documented in 1897 while the sedative effects were first recorded in 1904. Antispasmodic, anti-anxiety and hypotensive actions of passionflower leaves were clinically validated in the early 1980's.
