In small amounts, you can calm anxiety without causing sleepiness. It also lowers anxiety levels, without suffering the side effects of chemical anxiolytics.

Some scientific studies on its properties confirm that Passionflower worked on the neurotransmitters GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) of the brain, causing calming effects.

It serves as a complementary treatment in diseases such as Parkinson's, asthma epilepsy since it has anticonvulsant and antispasmodic effects.

It has been shown that, thanks to its chrysin component, consuming this flower is appropriate to treat cases of cáncer where there is metastasis, because it is reduced.
