evidence for passion flower, lemon balm and hops
Our honest take
A melatonin-free vegan capsule with passion flower, lemon balm and hops extracts. These are traditional evening herbs, but in food supplements they have no authorised claims and the trials are small and mixed, so we make no claims about sleep. It is cheap to try; regular sleep habits and cutting late caffeine have better evidence, and if poor sleep lasts more than a few weeks, speak to your GP.
- You want an evening herbal product without melatonin
- You need a vegan capsule at a low price
- You take sleeping tablets, sedatives, antidepressants or drink alcohol in the evening
- You need to drive or operate machinery after taking it
- You are pregnant, breastfeeding, under 18 or have a hormone-sensitive condition (hops contains plant oestrogens)
The science
Passion flower, lemon balm and hops· evidence: Insufficient
Passion flower, lemon balm, hops and valerian are traditional evening herbs. In the UK some are sold as registered traditional herbal medicines, which are licensed on the basis of long-standing use rather than proof from trials.
Human studies of these herbs in food supplements are small and mixed. There are no authorised health claims for them in food supplements, so we make no claims about what they do. Good sleep habits (regular times, less caffeine and screen time late on) have better evidence; if poor sleep lasts more than a few weeks, speak to your GP.
Typical dose: Varies by product and extract; check the label.
Safety: Can cause drowsiness: do not drive or use machinery if affected, and avoid alcohol. Do not combine with sleeping tablets, sedatives or antidepressants without advice. Not for use in pregnancy, breastfeeding or by children. Hops contains plant oestrogens, so speak to your GP first if you have a hormone-sensitive condition.
