100% Honest Claims with No False Promise.
Key Health Benefits
Use Case | Summary of Findings | PubMed Link |
---|---|---|
Sleep Quality (Insomnia) | Improved subjective sleep quality: Multiple studies indicate valerian can enhance sleep quality in people with insomnia. A meta-analysis of 18 RCTs found patients were about 37% more likely to report improved overall sleep quality with valerian compared to placebo (Relative Risk ≈1.37, 95% CI 1.05–1.78). Objective sleep parameters showed no significant differences, but valerian was deemed effective for subjective insomnia improvement with no major adverse effects. | PubMed |
Sleep Latency (Onset) | Faster time to fall asleep: In a double-blind trial with 128 adults, a single 400 mg dose of valerian root significantly decreased the time to fall asleep (shortened subjective sleep latency) compared to placebo. This benefit was most pronounced in individuals who normally experienced long sleep latency or who identified as poor sleepers. No next-day “hangover” effects were observed with valerian in this study. | PubMed |
Insomnia Symptom Relief | Improvement comparable to medication: A 6-week randomized trial in 202 patients with non-organic insomnia showed that valerian extract (600 mg nightly) improved insomnia symptoms comparably to oxazepam (10 mg). Both groups had significant increases in subjective sleep quality and similar improvements on other sleep indices, with valerian’s efficacy deemed “at least as good as” the benzodiazepine. Mild adverse effects occurred in 28.4% of the valerian group vs 36.0% of the oxazepam group, and no serious events were reported. | PubMed |
Generalized Anxiety (GAD) | Reduction in anxiety symptoms: In a pilot clinical trial of 36 patients with generalized anxiety disorder, a valerian extract (valepotriates, ~81 mg/day) was compared to placebo and to diazepam (6.5 mg/day) over 4 weeks. Total anxiety scores (HAM-A) decreased in all three groups without a statistically significant between-group difference, but importantly the valerian and diazepam groups showed a significant reduction in psychic anxiety symptoms (a HAM-A subscore) that was not seen with placebo. These preliminary findings suggest valerian may have an anxiolytic effect in GAD, though the small sample size limited the power to detect differences. | PubMed |
Stress Reduction | Calming effect under stress: A 4-week placebo-controlled trial in 64 adults with psychological stress found no significant advantage for valerian (300 mg per day) on self-rated anxiety/stress scales, as both the valerian and placebo groups showed similar improvements. However, valerian induced greater changes in neurophysiology: EEG measurements showed significantly increased frontal alpha-wave coherence (associated with relaxation) in the valerian group, and this change correlated with anxiety reduction. These results indicate that while subjective stress ratings may not differ from placebo in the short term, valerian can produce measurable calming effects on the brain. | PubMed |
Situational Nervousness | Reduced pre-procedural anxiety: In a dental surgery setting, valerian (100 mg oral dose) effectively reduced preoperative nervousness and provided relaxation comparable to midazolam (15 mg) in patients undergoing molar extractions. In a crossover trial with 20 anxious patients, valerian given 1 hour before the procedure produced the desired anxiolytic comfort without significant sedation or memory impairment, and with fewer drops in blood pressure and less drowsiness than the benzodiazepine. This suggests valerian can ease acute situational anxiety (“nervousness”) with milder side effects. | PubMed |
