This family of plants is also known as Passiflora. Passionflower
is available as infusions, teas, liquid extracts, and tinctures.
Studies suggest that specific species may have medicinal benefits. For example, Passiflora incarnata Purple Passionflower
may help treat anxiety, insomnia, seizures, hysteria, and nervous disorders. Native
American Indians have used passionflower to boils, wounds, earaches, and liver
problems. Passiflora foetida is more commonly
known as stinking passionflower that has been shown to help with ulcers and
digestion issues.
Passionflower was used in North American beginning in the 1800’s
to treat nervous restlessness and gastrointestinal spasms. In short, the
effects of passionflower were believed to be primarily on the nervous system,
particularly for anxiety due to mental worry
and overwork.
Passionflower has been
examined for use in treating anxiety, insomnia, diabetes, menopausal symptoms,
and cough. However, there are limited quality clinical trials to recommend
passion flower for any indication. (reference)
