valerian
Valerian is used to calm nerves, PMS, muscle spasms and allows you to sleep better ...
Valerian has been used traditionally for many years as a sedative and alleviator of anxiety. It has many benefits over the use of pharmaceutical sedatives and sleep aids. Valerian does not alter the brain waves that occur as a part of normal sleep patterns. Therefore the sleep that you get after taking valerian is just as restful as normal sleep.
Additionally valerian does not give you a “hangover” the morning after you use it. Valerian’s chemical components, the valepotriates, valerianic acids and pungent oils, relax the central nervous system by binding to the same receptors that are used by sedative medications. They also relax the gastrointestinal tract and skeletal muscles. Valerian can be used for restless leg syndrome and muscle spasms. It can also be used for stress and tension associated with PMS.
Dried valerian root can be made into a tea. Valerian can also be purchased in capsules or as a tincture. Water-soluble extracts of valerian contain more active ingredients than dried or alcohol-based formulas. Valerian may be found in formulas for relaxing the mind and body.
Due to valerian’s sedating action it may increase the effect of some anti-anxiety, anti-depression, anti-histamine, sleep inducing medications. Do not use valerian when performing activities that require alertness. Children can be harmed by some components of valerian including the valepotriates and baldrinal. Never give valerian to children under the age of three.
