MARYRUTH'S USDA Organic Valerian Root Liquid Drops, Sugar Free, 60 Servings

Really helps calm the mind and relax you to sleep easier without the drugged feeling afterwards. Taste is not great but not a deal breaker.

Great product! I've been struggling with sleep issues for YEARS and I'm so glad I tried this. I am so restless when I sleep that I toss and turn for hours on end, and this has definitely helped relieve it more than anything else Ive tried (and Ive tried just about everything). I do want to say the smell is off putting, but power through as the taste is tolerable. It's potent, I do feel groggy the next morning but it's worth getting sleep as i can go a week or more getting only 3 hours per night or less of sleep and it really affects my health. I'm hoping I will acclimate more over time and the groggy feeling may subside. Definitely worth trying if you have restless sleep, I am happy I did and will repurchase. Here's hoping it will continue to work.

So I didnt know that valerian root affects cats in a similar way to catnip until I opened this bottle and all 5 of my cats started going crazy. After I took my first dose, the kitties were all up in my face trying to smell my breath. Since then, I ordered some valerian root tea and they dont react to that nearly as much. So I already know this extract is strong. Im not taking this for sleep, but instead for nerve sensitivity and chronic pain from fibromyalgia. I was taking pregabalin but I had to stop because it was causing me severe migraines and visual distortions, so I've been looking for natural alternatives. I've been taking the max suggested dose on the bottle 3 times a day for about 2 weeks, and it is already doing better than my prescription meds were (Though I am also taking a skullcap extract). Keep in mind, it does take a little while to build up in your system. However, I felt some effects from the first dose. I haven't had any negative side effects. I dilute my doses in water and I havent noticed any taste and the extract is completely clear. There is a slight smell, which is expected because valerian root smells like stinky feet. But I am very sensitive to smells, and it isnt strong enough to cause me any problems with drinking it. There are enough doses in one bottle to last me a good while. I will be setting up a monthly amazon shipment for this, and I %100 recommend.

It is very relaxing, only side effect would probably be dreaming. It was effective. Small bottle so more expensive than other brands I have purchased.

It is soothing to nerves and relaxes my mind. I am not sure about night sleep. I have not noticed a significant difference. But it is supposed to help. Overall the drops are extremely functional, effective, great quality, taste is good. It has a bit too sweet taste for my palate.

The taste/flavor/smell is horrendous. I gagged each time I took it. I didn't notice a difference after two weeks so I stopped taking it and threw it away. No benefits seen with this liquid version. May try it in pill form.

I LOVE Mary Ruth products and the Valerian Drops are no different. I take a dropper of this and Kava drops at night and I sleep great! In 15 mins my eyes start getting heavy. Valerian drops are awesome when youre stressed and need something to calm you. I used to be prescribed Xanax years ago and stopped because I didnt want to take it the rest of my life. So, ive since found meditation and this

It might help with sleep and nerves but Mylanta is smells like rotten cheese that was cultivated in someone's crack. I had the bottle in my bedroom on the desk and kept smelling something awful that was making me gag. The kids came in and said they smelled it too and my husband who can't smell much was sniffing around trying to find the offensive source. This plagued me for 3 days... I frantically looked behind furniture, in corners and kept asking my sons to smell their feet and go wash their backsides. I took the blankets out of my room because I couldn't get the stench out of my nose and everything seemed to smell of a rancid bowel juice aroma. Tonight I realized as I was sitting at my desk that the bottle of MR Valerian was an arm's length away from me and even though the lid has been *ON* tight, that the horrific stench was coming from this closed (new!) bottle. I really can't describe it.. if you cooked hotdogs and then let the hotdog water sit for a week or two, and then gave some old, backed up sot an enema with the "aged" hotdog water... whatever came out of that borthole next is how this bottle smells. You think I'm maybe exaggerating but I am not. It makes me gag sitting at the desk with the lid on! How is that possible? For my money, even though I love MR products, I'll find a pill and skip the liquid Valerian.

Huele muy muy feo, hasta la sensación en la boca es extraña. No me ayudó en lo absoluto a dormir y ahí lo tengo casi nuevo.

Excellent

This is so weak. I can tell because proper valerian extract isn't supposed to be so sweet and have little potency. I can not feel any effect from this product. Waste of money, do not buy if you want effective valerian root.

No se si el producto es bueno o mala, obvio que no era para mi tipo de insomnio. No me sirvio. El insomio es algo complicado de tratar. Quiza funcione mejor un mix de diferentes hierbas del mercado, o algo de una buena tiendoa homeopatica.
