Valerian Root Extract Valeric Acid Benefits

Improves Sleep and Shortens the Time to Fall Asleep.

Valerenic acid regulates the level of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the central nervous system, enhances the inhibitory neurotransmission of GABA, and reduces excessive excitability of brain neurons, thereby helping to relax the body and mind and shorten sleep latency. It shows obvious effects for people with difficulty falling asleep or slow sleep onset.

Relieves Anxiety and Calms Nervous Emotions.

Valerenic acid acts on the limbic system and emotion-related pathways in the brain, inhibits excessive excitability under stress, and reduces emotional reactions such as anxiety, irritability and palpitations. It is a natural mood-soothing ingredient without obvious sedative or drowsy side effects.

Calms the Nerves and Relieves Neurasthenia.

By regulating the excitability of the central nervous system, valerenic acid can alleviate neurasthenia, restlessness, fatigue and poor concentration caused by long-term stress, staying up late and overwork, helping to restore nerve stability and improve mental comfort.

Relieves Tension Headaches and Muscle Tension.

Emotional stress is often accompanied by nervous tension, vasoconstriction and muscle tightness. Valerenic acid can assist in relaxing smooth muscles and relieving vasospasm while calming the nerves, and has a certain soothing effect on tension headaches, neck stiffness and physical tightness.
