What is Valerian extract?
Valerian extract comes from the active ingredients in Valerian (Valeriana officianalis), a perennial plant that is native to Europe and parts of Asia. This plant has been used therapeutically for over 2000 years--since the time of the ancient Greeks!
Recent research suggests that Valerian extract interacts with the gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA) neurotransmitter receptor system of the brain, and that increasing GABA produces a calming effect. Furthermore, one element of Valerian extract is isovaltrate, which has been shown to be an agonist for adenosine A receptor sites, which may further contribute to the sedative effects of the extract.
