Amazing!
I have always used melatonin when I needed extra help falling or staying asleep (which is often), but it didn’t always work as well as I hoped and it made me feel less than 100% the next day. Someone recommended I try valerian root so here I am. I have taken this every night for about two weeks now, and not only do I not have trouble falling asleep (I feel like a kid fighting their eyelids), but I also sleep through the ENTIRE night which is a giant win for me. Even with melatonin, I would wake up multiple times each night. Needless to say I have put my melatonin away now that I have found this. *The only downside is that the smell is super strong, like a strong, aged Parmesan cheese. Just holding the capsules for half a second before taking them leaves a little of the scent behind and they have a slight taste but it is manageable and well worth it to sleep well!*

Works fantastic
I did not expect this to work as well as it does! It works better than melatonin for me, which I was not expecting at all. On those rough nights, I’ll take these and normally when I take anything drowsy, I get restless legs, even with melatonin, but this doesn’t give me as bad of restless legs as other things which is a plus. I would highly recommend if you’re looking for a natural alternative to help you sleep.

Stink pills.
I give it 5 stars for results. Definitely helps me relax and sleep. But boy does it stink, I have to wash my hands after I pop 2 pills. Its like your finger poked through the toilet paper stinky, no joke. But if you can get by that like I can, it works. Worth a try.

Aids in Restful Sleep & Reduces Nighttime Hot Flashes
I am very happy with this product! I will say right up front, this smells bad. I take these quicky with at least 8oz of water and immediately wash my hands. While the smell is bad, there is no taste. The four stars is due to the smell, which may not be able to be avoided. This supplement works though. I purchased it to help me sleep and it is very effective. Within 20 to 30 minutes, it calms me and I drift into a peaceful sleep. As an added benefit, it has helped me with night hot flashes due to menopause! I do not suffer any adverse effects. Like any supplement, individual results may vary. Do not take this is you are pregnant or nursing. Check with your healthcare provider to make sure it will not interact with any of your medications.

Doesn't help me sleep
Now brand valerian root 500mg purchased May 2026 didn't help me sleep like I was hoping it would, even after taking two capsules, which is why I gave it three stars. I have taken valerian root in the past and it did help me become groggy and sleep pretty good, but that was when I was taking a prescription antidepressant which I no longer take. I don't mind the scent of valerian root, reminds me of Limberger cheese. I'm a female in my early 60s and take hormones for severe hot flashes. I think I'll try it as as an infused tea to see if that makes a difference in helping me to sleep. The price was acceptable.

Only thing that has ever worked for me!
Okay, so I've struggled with insomnia since my teens (I'm now in my 30's) and have tried absolutely everything under the sun. I tried no screens for an hour before bed, I've tried reading, I've tried melatonin, I've tried deep breathing and meditation, I've tried medications (with annoying side effects), and so many other things and supplements. I have a super over-active brain that just doesn't shut off, but I also don't sleep very deeply and wake up a lot throughout the night. My functional medicine doctor finally suggested I try Valerian Root tea. I hate bad tasting things, so I knew I likely wouldn't drink it every night if it tasted bad. So I looked for a capsule form and found this one. The first week, I didn't notice much of a difference. But to be fair, I was traveling, so it could have just been because I was out of my normal routine and home. But I stuck with it and tried it for another week once I was home, and I'm so glad I did. After about 2 weeks of taking 2 capsules per night before bed, I finally noticed a drastic difference. I started getting sleepy sooner, and my sleep is much deeper! I actually have times where I wake up in a different position, which NEVER happened for me before (I would always wake up to move). The smell is absolutely horrible. People are correct that it smells like butt haha but if you take a deep inhale before you open the container, then pop the capsules in real fast, it's fine. It thankfully doesn't taste like anything. Plus, it's the only thing that has ever worked for me, so I will gladly deal with the smell in exchange for better sleep. If you've struggled with insomnia, please try this out for a few weeks!

Produces a slight calming effect
When taking the recommended max dose of 2 pills it does seem to produce a slight calming effect. Overall achieves the desired effect before bed time. I use a tissue when handling these pills or the foul smell sticks to the fingers and hard to wash off.
