Learn all about Valerian Essential Oil

Remedy's Nutrition® Valerian essential oil is extracted from the Valeriana officinalis plant, a member of the Valerianaceae family; It's a perennial plant native to Europe and Asia and naturalized in North America.

Although the Valerian plant has some beautiful sweet-scented pink or white flowers, its roots are responsible for Valerian's extraordinary properties. It has a distinctive woody, dry, musky, and strong aroma. Some may find this aroma unpleasant, but you can soften it dramatically by diluting it or blending it with other oils and still enjoy all its benefits!

The name of the herb is derived from Latin verb valere, meaning 'to be strong, healthy'. Better known as 'Nature's Valium,' Valerian root has sedative, calming, grounding, and emotionally balancing qualities. Valerian root contains compounds that may promote sleep, increase relaxation, improve mood, and help deal with stress and anxiety.

Remedy's Nutrition® Valerian essential oil is extracted from the roots of the Valerian plant through a steam distillation technique. Some of the potential uses of Valerian essential oil are:

  • Insomnia
