Valerian root, Valeriana officinalis, is a perennial herb belonging to the Valerianaceae family. This plant is native to Europe and parts of Asia and thrives in moist, shady areas, often found in meadows and along riverbanks. Valerian root is characterized by its tall stems, feather-like leaves, and clusters of small white or pink flowers that bloom in the summer.

In herbal medicine, valerian root has been traditionally valued for its potential calming and sedative properties. It is commonly prepared as a tea, tincture, or capsule, offering an earthy and slightly bitter flavor. Historically, valerian root has been used in various cultures to promote relaxation, ease anxiety, and support sleep quality.*
