Understanding the Key Botanicals

Passion Flower (100mg)

The foundational botanical in this formula. Passion Flower has been studied for its traditional calming uses and is popular in modern herbal supplements designed to support relaxation and ease of mind.

Ashwagandha KSM66 (250mg)

KSM66 is a premium, full-spectrum extract of Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera), one of the most important herbs in Ayurvedic medicine. Known as an "adaptogen," Ashwagandha has been used traditionally to help the body adapt to stress.

The 250mg dose of KSM66—a clinically studied form—represents a meaningful amount backed by research. Ashwagandha has been studied extensively for stress support, sleep quality, and overall wellbeing.

Montmorency Tart Cherry (350mg)

At 350mg, this is the highest-dose ingredient in our formula. Montmorency cherries contain naturally occurring melatonin and have become popular for sleep support. Research has explored tart cherry's potential effects on sleep quality and duration.

Lemon Balm (50mg)

Melissa officinalis has been used since the Middle Ages to ease tension and support calm. This lemon-scented herb from the mint family has a gentle, traditional reputation for promoting relaxation.

German Chamomile (50mg)

Matricaria Recutita is perhaps one of the most well-known calming herbs worldwide. Chamomile tea has been consumed for centuries to promote relaxation and support restful sleep. Our extract provides concentrated benefits.

Lavender (25mg)

Lavandula angustifolia is renowned for its calming aroma and has been used traditionally to ease tension and promote tranquility. The herb extract complements the aromatherapy benefits many associate with lavender.

Bamboo Leaf Extract

The naturally occurring silica from bamboo provides additional mineral support and has traditionally been used in Asian herbal practices.

The Amino Acid Support

L-Taurine (50mg)

An amino acid found abundantly in the brain and nervous system. Taurine has calming properties and is sometimes referred to as a "calming" amino acid, in contrast to stimulating amino acids.

Our L-Taurine is vegan-sourced.

L-Tyrosine (50mg)

While tyrosine is typically associated with alertness (as a precursor to dopamine and norepinephrine), including it in a calming formula might seem counterintuitive. However, tyrosine can support balanced neurotransmitter production, which is important for stress resilience and mental balance.

Our L-Tyrosine is also vegan-sourced.

B Vitamins and Mental Wellbeing

The B-vitamin complex is crucial for nervous system function and psychological wellbeing:

Niacin (B3) at 75% NRV contributes to normal psychological function—your emotional and mental state.

Pantothenic Acid (B5) at 833% NRV provides therapeutic-level support for mental performance and fighting fatigue. This high dose ensures you're meeting needs, especially during stressful periods when B vitamin requirements increase.

Vitamin B6 at 143% NRV supports nervous system function and energy metabolism—both critical when stress is high.

Biotin at 147% NRV rounds out the B-complex, contributing to normal nervous system function and psychological wellbeing.

Magnesium: The Relaxation Mineral

Magnesium at 50mg per capsule (13% NRV) provides foundational support. While not a huge dose, it contributes to:

• Normal functioning of the nervous system
• Normal psychological function
• Normal muscle function
• Reduction of tiredness and fatigue

Magnesium deficiency is common and can contribute to sleep difficulties, muscle tension, and stress sensitivity.

How to Use Passion Flower Multi

Dosage: Take 1 or 2 capsules with water in the evening or as advised.

Recommended Timing: Evening use is suggested because this is a calming, relaxation-support formula. Taking in the evening supports unwinding after a stressful day and preparing for restful sleep.

Flexible Dosing:

• 1 capsule: Gentle support (60-day supply)
• 2 capsules: Moderate support (30-day supply)

Start with 1 capsule to assess how you respond, then increase to 2 if desired.

Do not exceed the recommended daily intake.

Who Should Consider Passion Flower Multi?

The Montmorency cherry (with naturally occurring melatonin), combined with traditional sleep-supporting herbs, makes this formula popular for those seeking natural sleep support.

Anyone Feeling Mentally Fatigued

The B vitamins—particularly the high-dose pantothenic acid—contribute to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue while supporting mental performance and psychological function.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this make me drowsy during the day? The formula is designed for evening use to support relaxation and sleep preparation. Some people may experience mild drowsiness, which is why evening dosing is recommended. Avoid driving or operating machinery if you feel drowsy.

Can I take this every night? For most people, yes. However, it's often beneficial to take periodic breaks (e.g., 5 days on, 2 days off) with herbal supplements, or to use as needed rather than continuously.

How long before bed should I take it? Try taking 30-60 minutes before your desired bedtime to allow the botanicals time to take effect.

Can I take this with my prescription medications? You must consult your doctor first. This formula may interact with sedatives, anti-anxiety medications, antidepressants, blood pressure medications, and thyroid medications.

Is this habit-forming? No. Unlike pharmaceutical sleep aids or anti-anxiety medications, the botanicals in this formula are not habit-forming. However, always use supplements as part of a comprehensive approach to wellness, not as a replacement for addressing underlying issues.

Why is the Pantothenic Acid so high (833%)? This therapeutic dose ensures robust support for mental performance and fatigue reduction, especially during stressful periods when B vitamin needs increase. Pantothenic acid is water-soluble, and excess is excreted.

Can I take this if I'm on antidepressants? Consult your doctor. Some botanicals, particularly Ashwagandha and Passion Flower, may interact with psychiatric medications.

Will this help with anxiety? While this formula contains botanicals traditionally used to support calm and ease tension, it's not a treatment for anxiety disorders. If you have diagnosed anxiety, work with your healthcare provider for appropriate treatment.

Can children take this? This product is formulated for adults. Consult a pediatrician before giving any supplements to children.

What if I wake up groggy? Start with 1 capsule to assess your response. If grogginess occurs, consider taking earlier in the evening or reducing the dose. Some people are more sensitive to calming herbs.

The Traditional Wisdom of Calming Herbs

Understanding Adaptogens

Ashwagandha is classified as an "adaptogen"—a term coined by Soviet scientist Nikolai Lazarev in 1947. Adaptogens are substances thought to help the body adapt to stress and support homeostasis (balance).

While the concept of adaptogens isn't universally accepted in conventional medicine, traditional systems have used these herbs for centuries, and modern research continues to explore their properties.

Your Journey to Better Sleep and Calm

Whether you're dealing with occasional stress, seeking better sleep quality, or looking to support your nervous system during demanding times, our Passion Flower Multi offers a comprehensive, plant-based approach.

The combination of traditional calming botanicals (Passion Flower, Ashwagandha, Chamomile, Lemon Balm, Lavender), Montmorency cherry for natural melatonin, therapeutic B vitamins for nervous system support, and vegan amino acids creates a formula that addresses relaxation and mental wellbeing from multiple angles.

Remember: Supplements are most effective as part of a holistic approach. Prioritize sleep hygiene, stress management techniques, regular exercise, and a balanced diet. Address any underlying health issues with professional help. When these fundamentals are in place, targeted supplementation can provide valuable additional support.
