I have had some problems with stress lately, and with not being able to sleep. A friend recommended valarian root as a natural solution-have you tried it, and did it help?

You might be best advised to do some research into valerian root and its tonics. Make sure that it doesn't interact with any other drugs or herbs you might be taking,

Something might help one person, but harm another. Make sure that it is safe for you.

I have used Valerian in the past and it has help me sleep better, but if you want to try something else for sleep I would recommend melatonin supplements - they are non habit forming and great to help you ease into sleep.

My aunt uses Valerian root as well with great success but personally I prefer to use teas and things of that nature just to avoid risking side effects with the medications that I use.
