Valerian is a herb native to Asia and Europe, it's name is derived from the Latin word valere, which means “to be well.”

Valerian has been used as a sleep aid for centuries, with historical evidence dating back over 2000 years to ancient Greece and Rome information about the herb was recorded as far back as 300 B.C. in Theophrastus’s Historia Plantarum.. It is believed to have a calming effect on the nervous system, which can help reduce anxiety and promote relaxation. It is also thought to have a sedative effect that can help improve sleep quality and duration. Clinical studies suggest that taking valerian root may reduce the amount of time it takes to fall asleep, as well as improving sleep quality and quantity.

Valerian extract is believed to help ease headaches, cramping and discomfort. The Greek physician Hippocrates recommended its medicinal properties for menstrual cramps. Modern studies support this theory, reporting the effectiveness of valerian extract in reducing menstrual pain intensity and duration.
