Scullcap herb, cut and sifted, refers to the dried aerial parts (leaves and stems) of the Scutellaria plant, specifically Scutellaria lateriflora, also known as American skullcap. This herb has been used in traditional herbal medicine, particularly in North America, for its calming and relaxing properties.
Scullcap is often used as an herbal remedy to support relaxation, reduce anxiety, and help with insomnia. It is considered an adaptogen and mild sedative, making it helpful for calming the nervous system and promoting restful sleep. It’s also used to relieve muscle tension and stress, and in some cases, to support overall brain health and cognitive function.
Scullcap can be brewed into a tea by steeping the cut and sifted herb in hot water, or it can be used in tinctures or capsules. It’s often combined with other calming herbs like valerian root, chamomile, or lemon balm to enhance its sedative effects.
