                                Scientific research has confirmed that trace amounts of pharmacologically active benzodiazepine-like compounds exist naturally in various plant and animal products. This fascinating discovery challenges the perception that these molecules are purely synthetic and raises the question of what foods contain benzodiazepines and in what capacity.
