Does Valerian Root Work?
It works for me. Like all substances meant to change mood or behavior, how valerian root effects you depends upon your own unique physical chemistry. I originally tried it because my brother had bought some for his sleeping problems. It works for me. It does nothing for him. For those who don’t know, valerian root is a dietary supplement taken from the roots of the valerian flower (valeriana officinalis). Its most popular use is as a sleep aid.
