The Benefits of Valerian Roots for Insomnia

Does Valerian Root Help With Insomnia and Anxiety?

Valerian has been used for thousands of years to help with insomnia and anxiety. However, there is not enough research to determine its true effectiveness.

Studies

Although Valerian is considered to be relatively safe, some studies have suggested that it may interact with other medications and supplements. Therefore, it is important to consult with a physician before taking this herb.

Valerian root can be taken as a tea, powder, or liquid extract. It should be taken at least 30 minutes to two hours before bed.

It may help with anxiety and depression

In addition to helping with sleep problems, it can also improve symptoms associated with anxiety and depression. This may be due to its ability to increase the level of GABA in the brain. GABA plays a role in regulating nerve cells.

Professional Consultation

The use of Valerian for these conditions is not recommended. If you suffer from persistent insomnia or other sleep-related issues, you should seek the advice of a doctor.

Valerian is also not recommended if you have a history of liver disease, or if you are pregnant or nursing. You should also avoid taking other prescription medications while taking this herb.

Other benefits

There is also some evidence that the herb may help relieve symptoms of menopause, OCD, and PMS. People who take Valerian seem to have less stress and are able to fall asleep more easily.

Some people take Valerian for other health conditions, such as social anxiety. The herb can increase the effects of other sedating herbs, but it is not proven to be effective in treating all types of anxiety.
