Serene 60 Capsules

Valerian Root, Melatonin and Gaba Melatonin is a hormone derived from serotonin and produced in the pineal gland during periods of darkness but not light. Exposure to light results in a rapid breakdown of melatonin. Melatonin can help you get to sleep faster and reduces the number of times you wake up during the night. Valerian root is used against restlessness, and sleeplessness, and is quite calming indeed. Responsible for these effects is the essential oil containing the so-called "valerenic acids" (monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes). This plant does not contain valium, a myth probably perpetuated by those who are aware of its similar sounding name and loosely similar effects. Valerian is actually much safer than Valium.
