Imagine your central nervous system is a radio. Occasionally, the dial gets stuck in the “on” position and you can’t turn it off. That’s sure to make restful sleep an elusive dream. Valerian helps support the “off mode” so your mind can quiet down and relax. Night, night.

Valerian root is a natural herb that has been used for centuries to promote sleep and relaxation. It is derived from the dried roots of the Valeriana officinalis plant, which is native to Europe and Asia. Valerian root contains several compounds that are believed to be responsible for its sedative and sleep-promoting effects, including valeric acid and valerenone.

Benefits of valerian root:

• Promotes sleep: Valerian root is best known for its ability to promote sleep. Studies have shown that it can help people fall asleep faster, sleep more soundly, and experience less nighttime wakefulness.

• Reduces anxiety: Valerian root has also been shown to be effective in reducing anxiety. It is believed to work by increasing the levels of GABA, a neurotransmitter that has calming effects on the brain.

• Relieves stress: Valerian root can also help to relieve stress. It has been shown to lower cortisol levels, the stress hormone.

• Eases menopause symptoms: Valerian root can be helpful for women experiencing menopause symptoms, such as hot flashes and night sweats.

• Improves mood: Valerian root may also help to improve mood. It has been shown to increase levels of serotonin, a neurotransmitter that plays a role in mood regulation.

How to use valerian root:

Valerian root can be taken in a variety of forms, including capsules, tablets, tinctures, and teas. It is typically taken 30 minutes to 1 hour before bed.
