How it works
Valerian (Valeriana officinalis) is a flowering plant whose root has been used since ancient Greek and Roman times. Supplements use the dried root as a powder, tablet, tincture or tea.
The root contains valerenic acid and related sesquiterpenes, iridoids called valepotriates, and small amounts of the amino acid GABA. Valerenic acid appears to interact with GABA-A receptors in the brain, the same system the body uses for its main calming neurotransmitter, and may also act on serotonin receptors. Together these actions may help explain its relaxing reputation. The smell of valerian is strong and earthy, from volatile oils that form as the root dries. Effects tend to build with regular use rather than being immediate. Clinical results are mixed, so it is best viewed as a gentle traditional herb (NIH National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health).

Common questions
How long before bed should I take valerian?
Many people take it 30 to 60 minutes before bed. Some also take a smaller dose earlier in the evening to help them wind down.
Will valerian make me groggy in the morning?
Some people feel a bit slow the next day, especially at higher doses. If that happens, try a lower dose, and avoid driving or operating machinery until you know how it affects you.
Safety
