Butterfly pea flower, also known as Clitoria ternatea, is a tropical plant native to Southeast Asia. It has been used in traditional medicine for centuries due to its numerous health benefits. One of the main advantages of butterfly pea flower is that it contains antioxidants called anthocyanins, which have anti-inflammatory and anti-aging properties.
Additionally, butterfly pea flower extract has been found to exhibit neuroprotective effects and improve cognition by increasing acetylcholine levels in the brain. Moreover, its tea made from its petals has been used as a natural remedy to help reduce anxiety and promote relaxation due to its ability to increase levels of GABA neurotransmitters in the brain responsible for stress relief.
Lastly, it’s high in flavonoids that can regulate blood sugar levels and prevent insulin resistance leading to diabetes. Butterfly pea flower is a versatile herb with many benefits that should be embraced by those seeking optimal health naturally.
