   I’ve been using these capsules for several years and they relax me and help me fall asleep and also help me back to sleep if I wake up at night or early in the morning – unlike most sleeping pills I’ve taken previously they do no side effects – I would recommend this product.

   do not live without this product in my life. I’ve been taking it for a few months and it really works a lot for me! I did some research and found that valerian root contains a number of compounds that can promote sleep and reduce anxiety. These include valerenic acid, isovaleric acid, and a variety of antioxidants. Valerian has gained attention for its interaction with gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a chemical messenger that helps regulate nerve impulses in your brain and nervous system. Researchers have shown that low levels of GABA from acute and chronic stress are linked to anxiety and poor quality sleep (1Trusted Source, 2Trusted Source, 3Trusted Source). Valerenic acid has been shown to inhibit the breakdown of GABA in the brain, leading to feelings of calm and tranquility. This is the same way anti-anxiety drugs like Valium and Xanax work. I highly recommend it. If you think my comment helped you click yes!

   NOW Foods Valerian Root is a great product and a great value. I take it for two main reasons. First, along with my melatonin supplements, I sleep like a baby and have wonderful dreams. Second, valerian acid triggers a special type of deep sleep, called deep slow-wave sleep, during which the anterior pituitary gland of the brain releases a polypeptide called somatotropin. Somatotropin stimulates the growth of new cartilage, cartilage being what cushions and lubricates our joints. So, if you are taking undenatured Collagen II and Glucosamine, taking a valerian tablet an hour before bed will complement your joint therapy strategy.

   I’m so happy to find something that isn’t habit forming and helps prepare me for sleep. I’m over 60 and I’ve always fought sleep. I take one capsule 1 hour before bed and relax with a good book. When it’s bedtime I’m ready to go to dreamland, no more problem now.

   Valerian is essential for good rest, sleep and relaxation. I usually take it before going to bed after a stressful day at work. It helps to fall asleep faster, sleep deeper, longer. Valerian relieves stress, anxiety, tension. The only thing is that cats go crazy from the smell of valerian, so keep those pills away from them. Please click like if my review was helpful

   I’ve used valerian root on and off for many years. It’s one of the few kinds of supplements one can and should notice a benefit from. Unfortunately for me the NOW brand formulation of valeriain root never produced any discernible benefit for me. It never seemed to help with sleep the way that formulations from other brands had. Valerian root is a great sleep aid and it should work, but for me NOW’s does not so I do not recommend this brand.

   Perfect quality, very good ingredient, practical packaging and neutral vegetable taste. Very nice pills. I was stressed and it really helped me relax. Just two pills and after a few days you can control your emotions again. Very useful in our crazy world. And what’s really good is that it only contains natural herbs!

   NOW Foods Valerian Root is a great product and a great value. I take it because I have trouble falling asleep at night, so after some research I learned that valerian acid triggers a special type of deep sleep – slow wave deep sleep…exactly what I was looking for, because my mind does not stop at night. I can say that the quality of sleep is much better!! great ingredients and very effective. the packaging is convenient. the taste and smell are strong, but it still is. this valerian is really the best and most effective, and I have tried others. I totally recommend

    I’m a big Valerian fan. If I feel a little anxious before bed, I take a few and it really helps me stay asleep. And if I’m in pain from some extra exertion during the day, that helps me even more. I found the weird thing they had about valerian to be true: if it smells good, that means it’s what the body needs, but if it doesn’t smell so good, go for something else thing.

    I recently heard about valerian root to help with sleep. This brand has helped my sleep immensely. I take it about 2 hours before bed and sleep like a rock. The quality of the ingredients is better than others I’ve tried. I have had trouble sleeping for most of my life. Now I sleep better than ever, even at my age.
