Product Overview

Valerian (Valeriana officinalis) is a hardy perennial flowering plant with fragrant pink or white blossoms, native to Europe, South Africa and parts of Asia, and later introduced to North America. Its name derives from the Latin word valere, meaning "to be strong or healthy", a reference both to its long-standing medicinal use and its strong characteristic odor.

Valerian root has been used as a traditional herbal remedy since ancient Greek times, when it was applied to support liver, digestive and urinary tract health, as well as relieve nausea and occasional sleeplessness. For centuries, it has also been used to soothe nervous tension, support calmness and promote healthy sleep patterns.

Our valerian root extract is concentrated from high-quality valerian root, with standardized valeric acid as the core active marker. It is a widely adopted natural ingredient for sleep support, stress relief and relaxation formulations across nutraceutical, functional food and personal care industries.
