Skullcap (Cut & Sifted, Organic)

Scutellaria lateriflora

Calming, cooling, and deeply relaxing, skullcap is a gentle but effective nervine used to quiet mental chatter, ease muscular tension, and support restorative sleep. This certified organic skullcap is grown in the USA and cut & sifted for easy use in teas, tinctures, and stress-relief blends.

Skullcap contains flavonoids (such as baicalin and scutellarin) and other compounds that have been studied for their nervous system–modulating and anti-inflammatory effects. It’s traditionally used to ease anxiety, soothe tension headaches, and support deep, natural rest—especially when stress or overstimulation are part of the picture.

Tasting Notes:
Mildly bitter and earthy with a clean, slightly grassy finish. Smooth in blends and neutral enough to take on other flavors.

Benefits:
• Traditionally used to calm the nervous system and reduce anxiety
• May ease physical tension and stress-related headaches
• Supports restful, non-sedative sleep
• Often included in herbal blends for mood, stress, and nervous system repair

Suggested Uses:
• Herbal Tea – Steep 1–2 tsp in hot water for 10–15 minutes; combine with chamomile, lemon balm, or passionflower
• Tinctures – A common delivery format for stress and sleep support
• Evening Blends – Use as a base for teas or tonics to unwind at the end of the day
• Topical Use – Occasionally used in infused oils or salves for nerve discomfort

Note:
Well-tolerated by most people. Not known to be habit-forming or sedating when used in appropriate amounts. Consult a healthcare provider before combining with medications that affect the nervous system.
