Is passion fruit juice a natural tranquilizer? I have heard it has a calming effect and that in Brazil, where the fruit grows in plenty, its a well known natural tranquilizer and popular drink.

The extract "passionflower" is popular in Great Britain and throughout Europe as a general antidote to stress and stress-related conditions. The extract is said to help reduce blood pressure, have a slight tranquilizing effect and boost sleep time without your waking up groggy. The answer to your question is yes; however, it may not be as powerful as a tranquilizer as you have been told.

Yes, definitely. It is a natural tranquilizer but not a powerful one. Students in Brazil drink passion fruit juice for exam nerves and so on. Anyway its very pleasant to taste and has plenty of vitamin C.
