It has been used as a sleeping aid for hundreds of years especially when there is excitation or difficulty in falling to sleep due to nervousness. Over 120 chemical components are found in valerian and although a very complex herb, it has not been found to have any negative side effects with moderate use.The use and health benefits of valerian root go back hundreds of years, back to during the 2nd century.It is calming without exerting too sedative an effect and is practically non-addictive. It is a valuable treatment for insomnia, the sedative effect due to the valepotriates and the isovaleric acid. Supplements containing valerian are also sometimes recommended as a herbal help for people with slipping problems. The potential benefit in this regard appears to be related to chemicals in the plant that bind to certain receptors in the brain. At least two double-blind studies have demonstrated that valerian extract can significantly reduce the amount of time it takes people to fall asleep without changing the normal stages of sleep. The Health Benefits of Valerian Root Extract: A type of valerian known as Valeriana wallichii, may help you sleep better, according to a laboratory animal study published in the July 2012 issue of the journal "Phytomedicine." Participants who took doses of 200 and 300 milligrams per kilogram of body weight fell asleep faster and woke up fewer times during the night. Total sleep time increased and brain levels of the neurotransmitters norepinephrine and serotonin were improved. Additionally, slow brain waves during non-REM sleep increased, indicating improved sleep quality. Researchers concluded that Valeriana wallichii's sleep benefits may be related to its effects on levels of neurotransmitters and certain other amino acids in the brain. Valepotriates and sesquiterpenes in valerian root have sedative effects that aid in inducing sleep. The sleep-wake cycle in humans is regulated by melatonin, a hormone secreted by the pineal gland in the brain. Melatonin is often given to people for healthy sleep. However, valerian root is a better alternative remedy for sleep problems in both adults and children. Valerian Root Extract Help Reducing Sleeplessness: Valerian is a popular plant in the all-natural world because of its beautiful appearance and lovely aroma that is very noticeable when the stem is placed in water. The valerian flower blooms during the summer, generally between June and September although it might bloom outside of this range as well. The benefits of valerian are heralded and well-known as it has been used for centuries as a calming agent for people. Valerian root is widely known for its calmative effects and is largely used to help sleeping problems. It has anxiolytic and tranquilizing properties, and sleep-inducing and calming effects on the nervous system.Valerian root is therefore very efficient in reducing sleeplessness and helping people who have to deal with restless nights.The valerian root has been one of the most popular substances for a variety of ailments. For years, it has been used as a sleep aid for people who have stress and have trouble sleeping through the night. The most beneficial thing to note about valerian is that it does not give you the groggy or sleepy feeling the next day after using it. How Does Valerian Work? Valerian is a beautiful looking flowering plant with clusters of white and light pink small flowers, somewhat resembling hyacinths. Centranthus ruber, commonly known as red valerian due to its fuchsia flowers, looks very much like valerian, but is a completely different plant with none of the health benefits of the original. Valerian has been carefully studied for over 100 years and is described in over 650 scientific publications. Plant scientists have identified specific valerian compounds that interact with the human brain in specific ways. Alkaloids such as actinidine, chatinine, syanthine, valerianine, and valerine have the same function in the human brain as catnip does for cats. If you feel like purring after you take valerian, it was probably due to the alkaloids. In the valerian plant itself, these compounds serve to lure insects to parts of the plant they can't eat.Flavanones such as hesperidin, 6-methylapigenin, and linarin may lower blood pressure and may stop muscle twitches. This indirectly reduces activity in the brain. In the plant itself, the compounds help it deal with drought, and a valerian plant that has been drought-stressed during the summer is more likely to put you to sleep when you use it to make a supplements. The use of valerian in supplement is on the rise due to the many health benefits it provides. It is a common recipe in supplements specially designed to deal with sleep problems and low moods. Gamma aminobutyric acid, also known as GABA, is the chief inhibitory compound in the human nervous system. This compound defends the valerian plant in nature from being eaten by goats and sheep. If a goat or a sheep walks into a field of valerian and starts munching away, the GABA in the plant will sedate the animal so that it leaves more valerian plants alone. Irioids, such as the two valepotriates isovaltrate and valtrate are thought to be more directly responsible for the soporific effects of the plant. These compounds interact with the same receptors in the brain. Because valerian seems to become more effective with continued use, there may be a cumulative effect, or valerian may help in some way to fortify or resolve a nutritional lack in the body. Isovaleric acid is the compound that makes you go "phew" or "phooey" when you smell valerian. It's also the main contributor to the taste of hops used to brew beer. Even though pure isovaleric acid smells something like cheese you left out on the counter for a week or socks you left in your gym bag, it's used to make many fine perfumes.Sesquiterpenes in the volatile oil such as acetoxyvalerenic acid, hydroxyvalerenic acid, and valerenic acid also activate GABA receptors in the brain. GABA trips the "off switch" for certain kinds of brain activity. It is possible that valerian has relaxing properties independent of any actual improvements in sleep quality.
