Valerian Root Powder Veggie Capsules

Valerian is arguably the strongest western herbal central nervous system sedative. Valerian will quiet a busy mind. It can promote sleep for those who cannot fall asleep and helps those who wake up in the middle of the night. Repeat the doses as needed within a night to facilitate sleep. It will help calm one down when going through hard times emotionally and mentally, or when in recovery therapy and in turmoil. The down side of Valerian is that if taken during the day, it can make one feel tired, sedate or a little out of it. Valerian is the strongest western herbal painkiller. It will reduce pain in the musculo-skeletal system (i.e. muscle and joint pain from injury, accidents, work outs, surgeries). It is also a smooth muscle relaxer for pain from menstrual cramps, digestive cramps, gall bladder and kidney stones. It will help calm hyperactivity in adults and children. If one becomes too fatigued by its use, cut back on the dose. One can increase dose appropriate to the stressful situation at hand. Valerian can aggravate depression, as it is a sedative. Valerian has been used to decrease the symptoms from withdrawal from barbiturates. It helps the emotional agitation from quitting cigarette smoking. --Coven: Herbal Handbook
