	Passiflora Incarnata by Ray Sahelian, M.D. For Anxiety, Aphrodisiac
		Because the BZF moiety isolated from Passiflora incarnata is a tri-substituted derivative of alpha-naphthoflavone (7,8-benzoflavone), a well-known aromatase-enzyme inhibitor, the mode of action of BZF has been postulated to be a neurosteroidal mechanism vide in which the BZF moiety prevents the metabolic degradation of testosterone and upregulates blood - testosterone levels in the body.
		Passiflora can be used as a tea, 2 to 5 grams of the dried herb two to three times a day (one teaspoon is usually about 2 to 3 grams).
		Kava kava extract, Passiflora extract and a combination of both extracts, administered to mice, caused a significant decrease of the amphetamine-induced hypermotility and significant prolongation of sleeping phase induced by subcutaneous injection of barbiturates.

	Passiflora passion flowers passionflower passionflowers
		Most Passiflora are vines thought to have originated in either the cooler mountains or the much hotter tropical rain forest.
		To survive and reproduce in these very competitive environments many species grow quickly using their tendrils to climb up trees (a very few have adapted becoming trees themselves) to reach the forest canopy and full sun, at which time the trailing stems begin to flower.
		To attract pollinators, such as bees, moths, butterflies, bats and hummingbirds to them rather than to other plants, Passiflora have evolved a wide variety, made wider by our man made hybrids, of stunning colourful flowers, often perfumed, with additional sweet nectar glands on leaves, petioles and sometimes bracts.
