The roots of the Valerian plant have been used for centuries for their calming and relaxing properties, as the oils it contains have a similar effect to benzodiazepines.
Valerian (Valeriana officinalis) is a flowering plant of the Valerianaceae family, which grows in wooded areas along riverbanks and wet meadows in Europe, Asia and North America. The name "Valeriana" is derived from the Latin word valere meaning "health or strength" and refers to the plant's medicinal use, although it is argued that it may also refer to its strong smell. Although it is not used as a food, in general, it is one of the natural food flavorings.
It has been recorded that it reduces the activity of the central nervous system, acting as a sedative for the nerves, muscles and heart while, at the same time, it contributes to the treatment of insomnia. Scientific research shows that valerian reduces frequent waking, tension and anxiety. Unlike similar drugs, valerian ensures a sound sleep, without the signs of tiredness or fatigue the next day. At the same time, it inhibits the spasms of the smooth muscles of the digestive tract, thus relieving cramps and the feeling of discomfort.
