Overview
Passionflower Extract, derived from the aerial parts of Passiflora incarnata via ethanol-water extraction, is a bioactive-rich ingredient standardized to ≥5% flavonoids (vitexin) and ≥1% harman alkaloids. Renowned for its calming, anxiolytic, and neuroprotective properties, this extract modulates GABAergic and serotonergic pathways. With 4x higher bioavailability than raw herb preparations, it is clinically validated to support stress relief, sleep quality, and cognitive function, making it a premier choice for nutraceuticals, functional beverages, and mental wellness formulations.
Function & Mechanism of Action
Key mechanisms include:
Anxiolytic & Sedative Effects:
Enhances GABA-A receptor activity and inhibits monoamine oxidase (MAO-A) to reduce anxiety and improve sleep latency.
Antioxidant Defense:
Scavenges free radicals via vitexin-mediated activation of Nrf2/ARE pathways.
Neuroprotection:
Reduces glutamate excitotoxicity and inhibits β-amyloid aggregation (in vitro models).
Anti-Inflammatory Action:
Suppresses COX-2 and NF-κB pathways to lower pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, TNF-α).
Cardiovascular Support:
Relaxes vascular smooth muscle via nitric oxide (NO) signaling to improve blood flow.
Applications
Mental Wellness Supplements:
Stress relief blends, sleep aids, and focus-enhancing nootropics.
Functional Beverages:
Calming herbal teas, relaxation tonics, and adaptogenic drink mixes.
Cosmeceuticals:
Anti-redness serums, anti-aging creams (via collagen protection), and scalp-soothing formulations.
Pharmaceuticals:
Adjuvant therapy for generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) and mild insomnia.
