Benefits of Valerian Root

If you have poor sleep, valerian root can prove its value to help you sleep. It helps with the release of the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), helping your brain calm down so that you can achieve a good night sleep.

Valerian root is native to Europe and Northern Asia. It also grows in North America. Valerian root grows in the wild, in damp conditions. Its name is thought to be derived from the latin word “valere”, which means to be well.

It helps with easing anxiety symptoms such as tension headaches, palpitations and tensed muscles.

It’s a good antispasmodic. Valerian root helps with muscle pain and menstrual cramps, rheumatic aches, and irritable bowel syndrome.

And if you like drinking tea, I encourage you to try my recipe, the best tea for acid reflux. This tea has ginger and turmeric and it is a comforting and soothing tea to drink at night. It helps with common stomach issues as well.
