20. Valerian Root
Valerian root is an herb that has been used as a natural remedy for centuries. It is commonly used to help with sleep problems, particularly insomnia. It is also used to treat anxiety and psychological stress. While it isn’t clear how the herb works, it is thought to subtly increase the gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the brain, which has a calming effect on the body. Valerian root can be found in dietary supplements, but can also be dried and used to make tea. According to research, taking higher doses of valerian (1000 mg) together with St. John’s wort may improve symptoms of depression faster. Avoid taking valerian root for more than one month.
