Ok, thanks. I think I'll start with 500 mg before bed tonight. I found this online, but haven't sought out the research report itself.
"Even more impressive results emerged from a well-designed 1996 trial involving 121 insomnia sufferers. Among the benefits of valerian root extract taken one hour before bedtime (2 tablets of 300 mg each): significantly improved sleep quality, dream recall, and sense of psychological well-being."

That's originally what I took it for... for years and then I found on a search that tied it to PN, and other nerve issues. It does calm the nerves. It is easy to find at any health food store.

This is very interesting. I would love to give this a try.
Does anyone know if this is counter-indicated for other medications/herbal remedies? Are there any side effects of which one needs to be mindful? |

I believe that PharmaGaba is better.
Valerian extracts can be unreliable.. Some have tested Out in studies as not present in products. PharmaGaba does not cause drowsiness for daytime use. Iherb has an affordable one now. Not all Gaba supplements Are absorbed into the brain.. The PharmaGaba is unique.

Any complications with Valerian Root as far as drug interactions with vitamin supplements. I'm assuming that those using it have eliminated gabapentin and any sleep drug such as Klonopin.

Aloha... I have never heard of Pharmagaba or gaba...at first glance it looks interesting and will read more...thanks. As well we know what works for one doesn't work for another. I personally like to stick with the natural products and eat very healthy. Yes, sad about the vitamin content bust...
![]() I did check it out and I am going to try the Gaba first. I am interested to see if it calms the pain in my feet or restful sleep...both are surely welcome ![]() Last edited by Malia; 02-13-2015 at 11:01 PM. Reason: additional comment |
