Health Benefits
Valerian extract has the functions of anti-depression, sedation, sleeping, and anti-convulsions, as well as anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-tumor, and liver-protecting functions.
Animal studies have shown that valerian extract also has anti-arrhythmic effects. The function mainly calms the nerves, regulates qi, and relieves pain. The test can strengthen the inhibitory process of the cerebral cortex, reduce the excitability of reflexes, and relieve smooth muscle spasm, so it has sedative, hypnotic, antispasmodic and analgesic effects.
Researchers do not yet know exactly how valerian root functions to help people sleep better. They believe it is a combination of different factors. One is that valerian increases the amount of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the brain. As a neurotransmitter, GABA inhibits unwanted nervous system activity. Studies have shown that increased levels of GABA in the brain lead to falling asleep faster and experiencing better sleep.
