VALERIAN Kozłek lekarski Βαλεριάνα Valeriana officinalis

Valerian has been used as a night time drink for hundreds of years, a great de-stressing  and relaxing tea. 

Today, in spite of its distinct and somewhat offensive odor, valerian continues to be one of the most popular medicinal herbs in the world.

There is no finer herb than valerian for those who suffer from stress, insomnia and nervous system disorders. It is powerful, safe, very effective and non addictive.

Because the root is rich in volatile oils, it should be infused rather than decocted. 

Valerian Tea:

Put 1 teaspoon into a cup and fill with boiling water. Let the tea brew for 5 minutes. Add honey and/or lemon, if desired.

Valerian should be avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding
