Passionflower has been used in traditional wellness practices for generations, long before it became a familiar name on supplement labels. It's one of the six botanicals we chose for Nerve Honey, and it's worth understanding why.
A Long History Of Traditional Use
Native to the Americas, Passionflower has a documented history stretching back centuries in traditional herbal practice, most often reached for to support relaxation and calm during periods of restlessness.
What Modern Research Says
NIH's National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health has summarized research on Passionflower's traditional use for relaxation and sleep support. As with most botanical research, results concern the individual ingredient rather than any specific finished product.
Why We Included It
In Nerve Honey, Passionflower is paired with California Poppy to support a calmer nervous system baseline — the first of six layers in our formula. Calm is often the starting point for feeling more like yourself day to day.
