(its not just for cats..LOL) i have not researched this myself online or anything, but i found it interesting!

I really did not know that humans could take catnip. It sounds like it might be worth looking into.

I don't know if it will be at my local health food store. I am not sure what the same for it is in Spanish - will have to look that up.

I assume it will not make me start climbing trees. I think I am a bit past climbing trees - lol

That is worth checking out, next time I go to the Health Store I'll ask. Thanks for the info.

It makes total sense to me because my daughter is on large doses of Holy Basil for anxiety and so far it seems to be working! Whenever I can, I like to try the natural products first, especially since medications can surprise you with horrible side affects....

Just wondering if the catnip gives you the munchies- cause if so, I'll pass. I'm really trying to diet!!!! LOL
