This does not curve anxiety or help with sleep would not recommend

Valerian is what’s considered a nervine in the herbal supplements. It could calm you down, some work better as a muscle relaxant and some help in sleep. Some have all the above qualities.This brand does work adequately but I have to take issue with the dosage recommendations of it. I have taken valerian for years and most brands recommend taking two capsules. Two is relative to the strength per capsule. With the brand I normally take, it’s the same thing as this but rather than taking one 500mg that’s in this brand, my brand recommends taking two 400mg capsules which give a total of 800mg rather than 500mg. That’s 60% more per serving for the brand I normally take over this brand.Comparing the quantity of this brand and mine, it’s about the same. My brand has 100 capsules which would be 50 servings and this brand offers 90 capsules that if you take two, give you 45 servings.Looking online, this recommended dosage seems to contradict the brand I normally take. However, I have taken this herb for several years with no ill effects. I would recommend taking one capsule as recommended and if that doesn’t work for you, you might want to look online to consider a dosage amount that works for you. I find one capsule of this doesn’t work effectively for me. Two does.Valerian genially has a very disagreeable smell. Think of dirty socks. This brand doesn’t have that smell. I will attribute it to it being primarily an extract. The brand I normally use is also primarily the extract and doesn’t smell like the traditional herb either. So, I’m not concerned about the lack of scent.Valerian doesn’t really make me sleepy but relaxes me. If I’m stressed, it helps calm me down. As far as I know, it is non habit forming and there is little to no adverse effects to it.I’m going to say that this brand does work as well as my normal brand or almost as well, if I take two rather than one. But, the cost of this brand is considerably more than what I normally pay for my regular brand. Considering the cost and convenience of obtaining it locally, I will be sticking with my regular brand.

I got this because I do not sleep very well as you might of guessed. I can fall asleep pretty quick but staying asleep is an issue for sure. I have tried countless sleep aids and they do ok but I find they are not consistent. They work well one night and not so much the next.So I tried one Valerian Cap and it did 'ok'. Next night tried 2 and better. Next night tried 2 caps with my ole faithful 5mgs of melatonin and 1 Jujube fruit extract cap and slept like a log ! I loved it ! Best sleep ever ! I have been recommending it to my friends who complain about sleep issues . These caps are easy to take and no sides other than great sleep. I wish I had found this long time ago. I absolutely love the no heavy metals stamp on my bottle. Hope to see that stamp show up more on the other supplements I take. So yes it works but you may need to enhance it a bit. Maybe it will work all by itself for you ! Hope this was helpful .

I got Valerian root capsules because they made me think of my grandmother. My grandmother believed in Valerian root. She would take it when she was nervous and needed to be calm. She would take on the day when she needed to be calm; she never took for long stretches of time.I was hoping to use it on an as-needed basis instead of having to ingest something regularly to avoid side effects. Then I looked up studies about it, and they said that Valerian root typically does not work right away. People report they feel the effects in a week or two. So my grandma probably felt the placebo effect.There were many studies using Valerian roots, and the results varied from study to study. I found an interesting study that analyzed why studies are so inconclusive, and the scientists determined that effects depend on the specific formulation. Since there is no standard formulation, the results vary drastically.Thinking back, part of the effect on my grandmother could have been psychosomatic; she believed it helped her, and so it did.Ali Julia reviewReview of Extra Strength Valerian Capsules by Roar to Life

Valerian is different from other supplements, like melatonin, in that the sleep is natural, deep, and very restful. Melatonin can cause strange dreams and in time, diminished ability to produce the chemical yourself.The capsules are odorless & tasteless, which is great if you recall how valerian can often have a very strong odor.I took the recommended dose of one capsule before bed.Not only did I sleep very soundly, but I even slept in, however, I was not drowsy right away. Valerian is excellent for getting to sleep when you're ready. I'd advise you to take this an hour or two before you need to sleep, so you can settle in, relax, and fall under. It's great if you need to catch up on some lost sleep, or if you're in need of bed-rest but can't settle down.I have a similar product with more than double the dose, but the roar valerian was noticeably stronger. So try it for yourself, especially if you struggle with sleep, due to stress, autism spectrum disorder, or other issues. You'll sleep easy.

I have been using Valerian for years. I only take it when I am going to have trouble falling asleep. Typically it is after a rough day at work and my mind is racing and I just need to calm down, drift off to sleep and forget the world.Valerian has a strange taste and smell. I've just gotten used to it over the years. I've used a couple different brands before and the smell and taste were always present. Not so with these capsules. Not sure how the accomplished it but there is virtually no order or taste with these. I have friends who will not take valerian because of the taste/smell issue - I'll be recommended this brand to them.These help me get to sleep with no strange side effects. Just a very natural, restful sleep.

I take 2 an hour before bedtime and then I sleep the whole night through. Except at 3am go for a pee and then I quickly fall back to sleep 😴.I have tried many , but this is the only one that works. You won’t regret this purchase.

Great product
