Solaray, True Herbs, Valerian, 470 mg, 100 VegCaps, Valerian root 470 mg per capsule

Solaray formulates this product as Valerian, with the key composition stated as Valerian root 470 mg per capsule. It comes in 100 VegCaps and uses a labeled serving of 1 VegCap, corresponding to 100 servings per container. Valerian (Valeriana officinalis) root contains valerenic acids and other compounds investigated for GABAergic and sleep-related effects. Clinical findings are mixed, partly because extracts differ substantially. Whole-root powder and standardized extracts should not be assumed equivalent. Valerian may add to the effects of sedating medicines or alcohol. The most useful way to compare this exact product with scientific literature is to match the chemical or botanical form, the declared amount per serving, and the duration of intake. A different extract, salt, delivery system or serving size can produce a different exposure even when two products share a similar front-label name. Mechanistic plausibility is not the same as a demonstrated clinical benefit, and positive findings in one population should not be generalized automatically to every healthy adult. For a single-dominant-ingredient product, the central quality questions are identity, dose, chemical form or standardization, and whether the amount is reasonably comparable with doses used in human research. This keeps the scientific description focused on the actual product rather than extrapolating from unrelated formulations. Product-specific interpretation should also consider total intake from food and other supplements, age, baseline nutritional status, health conditions and concurrent medicines. The formulation may be useful as a convenient way to supply its declared ingredients, but it should not be presented as a treatment, cure or guaranteed outcome.

Take 1 VegCap daily, preferably with food or water; use timing consistent with the product label.
