Passiflora incarnata - Clinical studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of this herb in the treatment of anxiety and insomnia and it is well known and respected as a mild sedative and tranquilizer in naturopathic circles. Passiflora is also useful in treating colic and its high safety profile makes it a gentle, yet very effective choice for treating the symptoms of insomnia is babies and young children.
Coffea C30 - Homeopathy works on the principle of 'like treats like' and homeopathically formulated Coffea is an excellent remedy to calm the overexcited and irritable person. Children who become very sensitive, restless and 'unreasonable' at bedtime will benefit from this proven homeopathic remedy.

It helps calm symptoms such as twitching and tossing and turning during sleep. Cina is also beneficial for children who grind their teeth and for children with intestinal worms.
