What is Valerian Root?
Valerian is a hardy perennial flowering plant with sweet-smelling pink or white flowers. The name Valerian means “to be strong or healthy” in Latin, and this translation is generally regarded to refer to its medicinal use, though it is suggested that it also refers to the strong odour.
Valerian is native to Europe, South Africa, and parts of Asia and was introduced to North America. Ancient Greeks used the plant for a variety of medical disorders.
Cautions
Pregnant or breastfeeding women should not use Valerian. It should not be used while driving, operating heavy machinery or engaging in other activities which require one to be alert, due to its tranquilizing effects. Those with liver disease are also warned against taking Valerian in combination with skullcap.
Valerian should not be used if taking anaesthesia, sedatives or anti-anxiety medications without first consulting a doctor.
