Passionflower Tea
Did you know that passionflower tea is high in flavonoid antioxidants? These are well-known for their ability to reduce inflammation, boost immune health, and lower the risk of heart disease. Plus, this beverage has been studied for its ability to reduce anxiety.
Apigenin, an antioxidant, is responsible for passionflower’s anxiety-reducing properties. This has a calming effect on our brain by binding to specific receptors. Passionflower may also increase the production of the brain chemical gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), which inhibits the action of other brain chemicals that cause stress, such as glutamate.
