VALERIAN 500
What is it used for?
There are many factors that can upset our natural sleep rhythm, including less than 8 hours sleep a day, age and balancing work and family commitments. Complaints of sleeping problems increase with age and tend to affect women more frequently than men.
Valerian dates back to the 2nd century in Greece and Rome, and was originally used for its sedative properties and effects, and to treat the symptoms of nervousness and headaches.
Valerian 500 is a natural herbal remedy which helps induce relaxation and works to encourage a restful sleep without any drowsiness the following day. It also provides temporary relief of headaches, insomnia, mild anxiety and stress.
It should be noted that, unlike many synthetic drug therapies, controlled clinical studies suggest that a 2 – 4 week course of Valerian is required to achieve the desired improvements in sleep patterns.
