In traditional medicine, passionflower is used as a sedative, but also as a tonic drink, as an aphrodisiac, to relieve spasms, pain of various types. According to some new research, the effect of passionflower (leaves) on suppressing cough can be compared with that of codeine, which is found in many syrups. There is a lot of representative data on the blood pressure lowering properties of the herb, and recently on its ability to act as an aphrodisiac and improve fertility. The analgesic effect of passionflower is considered to be indisputably recognized.

Passionflower, also called the "flower of passion", is characterized by beautiful flowers and exotic-tasting fruits.

Passionflower contains three main types of chemicals: alkaloids, glycosides and flavonoids (mainly chrysin, which is associated with its calming effect). Natural serotonin and maltol, a chemical with a proven sedative effect, have also been isolated. It can be argued that thanks to over 100 years of research, the sedative, antispasmodic and analgesic properties of the herb have been conclusively proven by medicine.
