Product Q&A
1. Is it normal for Valerian to have such a strong smell?
Valerian has a very strong pungent smell. It is often likened to smelly feet or socks. The fresh root has little odor. A natural enzymatic process takes place as the root ages and a product called isovaleric acid gives off the foul odor.
Suggested Use
Take one to two capsules with water one hour prior to bedtime or prepared as a tea.

Warning: Do not drive or operate heavy equipment while taking this product.
There is some controversy regarding whether it is safe for pregnant or lactating women. European Pharmacopoeias list no contraindication to use of Valerian root during pregnancy or lactation. However, as a general rule, caution and moderation are advised during this condition.
Persons taking sedatives or antidepressants should consult their physician before taking Valerian.
Should not be used by children under 12 years of age.
Concomitant use of Valerian with alcoholic beverages is contraindicated. Alcohol will increase the sedating effect. Although Valerian is not known to over-sedate as a rule, individuals should be urged to avoid driving or operating heavy equipment if taking.
