Valerian Root 1500 – 60 Capsules

The modern day therapeutic uses for valerian stem from traditional Greek medicine which was originally documented by Hippocrates (ca. 460-377 B.C.E.) and later by Dioscorides (first century), author of the De Materia Medica. During World War I, Europeans afflicted with nerve symptoms from artillery, frequently took valerian. Valerian is non-habit-forming and enables a person to wake up feeling refreshed.
