Passionflower (passiflora incarnata) originally grows in Asia and North-America, but is cultivated almost everywhere else. The most important active ingredients belong to the harmala alkaloids, such as harmine and harmaline.
Effects
Passion flower is used as a mild sedative and as a sleeping aid. Interestingly, it can act as both a sedative and a stimulant. It is sometimes used as a hallucinogen at very high doses, though its primary therapeutic use is as a sedative.
Usage
Passion flower is usually prepared as tea. The usual dose is 0.3 to 0.5 grams of extract per day.
For a strong hallucinogenic tea steep 3-4 grams of extract in hot water for half an hour.
Warnings
Pregnant women should avoid Passion flower. Since it is a sedative, Passion flower may affect the ability to drive or operate heavy machinery, so it should be used with caution when engaging in these activities.

psychoactive products or food, it can cause headache, sickness, or worse.
