- General Information: Catnip, also known as Nepeta cataria, is a herbaceous plant belonging to the mint family, Lamiaceae. Native to Europe and Asia, it's now widely cultivated around the world for its medicinal and recreational uses. Catnip has a long history of use in traditional medicine and is also popular among cats, who are attracted to its aromatic leaves.
- Medicinal Use: Catnip leaves contain a compound called nepetalactone, which is responsible for its effects on both humans and cats. In humans, catnip is primarily used as a mild sedative and digestive aid. It can help relieve anxiety, stress, and insomnia. Catnip tea is commonly used to alleviate digestive discomforts such as bloating and gas. Additionally, catnip has mild analgesic properties and may help reduce headaches and menstrual cramps.
- How to Use: Catnip leaves can be used to make herbal tea or infused in various preparations. To make catnip tea, steep dried catnip leaves in hot water for 5-10 minutes, then strain and drink. Example: To prepare catnip tea, add 1-2 teaspoons of dried catnip leaves to a cup of hot water, cover, and steep for 5-10 minutes. Strain the leaves and enjoy the tea. Drink up to three cups daily for desired effects.
