Scutellaria barbata extract
Description:Skullcap is a perennial herb native to North America. It is a member of the mint family and has small, blue or purple flowers that bloom in the summer. The plant is named for its shape, which resembles a small, hooded skull. Skullcap is often used in traditional medicine to treat a variety of conditions, and some studies have suggested that skullcap may have sedative and anxiety-reducing effects.
