Passion flower tea is an excellent way to help those that deal with depression, stress, and anxiety. Drinking this tea is a natural way to feel more relaxed without having to experience the drawbacks that are found in most medications. This is mainly used as a treatment for anxiety or insomnia. The chemical mechanism behind this tea is similar to valerian root, in that it increases levels of gamma aminobutyric acid or GABA, in the brain. The release of GABA then works to help relax the whole body leaving you feeling calmer and more comfortable. As a result of these effects, this tea also works to help those that suffer from insomnia as well in that a relaxed body can give way to an easier and better night’s rest.
