Passiflora and better sleep

Passiflora incarnata (passionflower) can help you fall asleep faster. Research is still being conducted into its precise mechanism of action. However, it is known that the active substances only have a positive effect if there is synergy. This means that the substances individually have no effect or may even have a negative effect, but as a whole, they do work. In our opinion, the synergistic effect of these specific alkaloids (harmine, harmaan, harmol), plant sterols, and flavonglycosides stimulates dopamine and serotonin receptors effectively because the MAO-inhibiting effect partially prevents the breakdown of dopamine and serotonin. Individuals with attention deficit disorders or hyperactivity specifically have a deficiency in dopamine stimulation in the anterior part of the brain and therefore benefit from passionflower extracts.
