California Poppy Tincture
Promote deep relaxation and sound sleep with the safe yet effective sedative properties of California Poppy. While this poppy may be related to the opium poppy (papaver somniferum), it is not to be confused with its narcotic sibling. California poppy has been proven safe, gentle, and effective in relieving anxiety, enhancing mood, and promoting sleep. It is also safe for use with children experiencing bed-wetting, nightmares, anxiety, and nighttime restlessness. Please refer to "Suggested Use" for dosage guidelines.
