Valerian Extract CAS:8008-88-6

Valerian extract is used in traditional and alternative medicine to address symptoms of insomnia, anxiety, and stress.  It is believed to work by influencing GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) levels in the brain, which can help reduce feelings of anxiety and promote relaxation.  Additionally, it may be used to alleviate symptoms of restlessness and nervous tension.  Some individuals also use valerian extract to help manage symptoms of mild mood disturbances.  As with any herbal supplement, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional before using valerian extract, especially for individuals with existing medical conditions or those taking medications.  The quality and safety of the product should also be carefully considered when using herbal supplements.
