Kava Kava has shown a potential for liver damage. So it is not
recommended for everyday use anymore.

You might want to try Valerian. This does help, and is mild.
You want to choose a good brand, since some suppliers do not
put quality herb in their product. Look for GMP on the label of the product you choose.

Valerian has a peculiar smell, so if you reflux it, it will be unpleasant. So take it 1 hr before bedtime, so it has time to move out of the stomach.
This link gives the most recent information on Valerian, drug interactions, etc:
