Use Panic Attack Herb Products To Treat Panic Attacks

An effective and very popular panic attack herb is called kava (Piper methysticum). It's part of the pepper family. In fact, Piper is the Latin word for pepper.

Kava has been known to reduce panic anxiety attacks and depression. Kava contains kavalactones. This has a relaxing effect and can also help you sleep better.

Don't Use Kava If You're Pregnant

Kava kava, as it's sometimes called, can be bought in health food stores. However, don't just go off and buy it. Speak to a specialist first. There have been reports of it causing liver problems.

It is also not recommended for use by pregnant or lactating women. Not enough research at present has been done, so for women in this category, don't even risk it.

Passion flower and lemon balm are two herbs that seem to produce anxiety-reducing effects. If you are taking medication for a thyroid problem, then it's best not to take anything that contains passion flower.

Arguably, the most popular and well-known herbal preparation for panic attacks, anxiety disorders and depression is St. Johns Wort. It's probably used more for depression.

It seems to be quite effective for depression, if it's not severe. In general, St. Johns Wort seems to be well-tolerated.

If You Try Anything, Try PureCalm First

PureCalm is a highly recommended herbal product that provides stress relief naturally. It's quite safe and is non-addictive. It contains lavender, lemon balm and passion flower.

It can be used by adults as well as children. PureCalm seems to have a positive effect on serotonin levels, helping to create a proper balance of this neurotransmitter.

Thus, it seems to have an antidepressant quality, which makes it quite effective in treating panic attacks. Adults can put 10 - 20 drops in water or juice daily. The dose is less for children, though very young children have a special product called K-OK KiddieCalmer.

Again, don't use it if you're pregnant or taking thyroid, or indeed any other medication. This is just to be cautious. Otherwise, it's generally safe. They always have specials, like 'buy 2 and get 1 free'.

If you are looking for a panic attack herb for your panic attacks, PureCalm is probably the best one to go with as it seems to contain the best herbal combination to treat panic attacks.
