We live in a stressful world - and every day scientists are learning more about the profound negative effects stress can have on our bodies and minds. Planetary Herbals is pleased to offer your customers Albizia Calm, a safe, natural approach to reducing occasional anxiety and stress levels, and supporting a calm, peaceful mood.

Albizia julibrissin is one of the most valued Chinese botanicals for supporting a healthy mood. Also known as mimosa, albizia has been traditionally used for centuries to elevate the mood, promote mental and emotional calmness, and support a peaceful night's sleep.

Planetary Herbals Albizia Calm, one of the first albizia products available to U.S. health food stores, is a tincture formulated from albizia flower and bark.

The “Herb of Happiness”

Albizia was traditionally used in Chinese herbalism to “calm the spirit” and relieve emotional constraint when associated with bad temper, bad mood, sadness, occasional sleeplessness, irritability and poor memory. It was believed to be especially useful for anyone experiencing profound heart-breaking loss.

Albizia's Beneficial Compounds

Today scientific research is helping to explain how albizia works. Preclinical studies have identified several compounds in albizia that have demonstrated calming activity. Two flavonol glycosides, known as quercetrin and isoquercetrin, were found to increase sleeping time in mice in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, a stem bark extract from Albizia julibrissin was evaluated for its potential to scavenge several kinds of free radicals. That research demonstrated that albizia bark has strong antioxidative activity - at times stronger than vitamin C.
