How Does Valerian Extract Improve Sleep?


Valerian can promote the secretion of GABA (γ-aminobutyric acid) in the cerebral cortex, regulate nerve cells, reduce anxiety and exert a calming effect. This is because we have a neurotransmitter in our brain called GABA that promotes a calming effect. Valerian root extract contains chemical active ingredients such as valeric acid and terpenes, which can obviously stimulate the activity of GABA receptors, effectively inhibit rapid eye movement sleep and low-frequency waves, and promote rapid sleep.


Some studies have also shown that valerian extract can also improve sleep by mediating the inhibition of GABA enzyme destruction, thereby increasing the availability of GABA.
