I regularly make tea from the roots and add honey as valerian is bitter by nature.The product is great quality and very effective for insomnia. I bought the bulk root as it's more cost effective compared to buying valerian tea bags. I've always been impressed by the quality of products from Frontier.
Valerian tea is a delightful herbal infusion with a mild, earthy flavor. I've found it to be a soothing and comforting drink, especially during colder months. It's known for , its subtle floral aroma adds to the overall experience. Valerian tea is a great addition to my tea collection, offering both taste and potential wellness perks.
Supplement name: Frontier Co-op, Organic Cut & Sifted Valerian Root, 16 oz (453 g) Supplement scores: 7 Introduction & context: Valerian root (Valeriana officinalis) is an herb traditionally used for sleep and anxiety. This product offers 1 g per serving at $11.99/lb. Third-party testing for heavy metals and pesticides is not publicly disclosed. Evidence summary: Numerous RCTs (total n~1,100) assess valerian for insomnia, with mixed results. A 2015 meta-analysis (n=370) found modest improvements in sleep latency (mean difference: -16.1 minutes) and quality, but effect sizes were small and heterogeneity high. Most trials used doses of 300-600 mg/day, often standardized to 0.8% valerenic acid. No trials exceed 900 mg/day. Formulation & quality analysis: Standardized to 0.8% valerenic acid is typical, but no mention of extraction method. Loose root form may have variable potency. No excipients, but potential microbial contamination risk due to lack of testing. Safety & interactions: Generally well-tolerated; common side effects include dizziness and drowsiness. Contraindicated with sedatives, alcohol. Use caution in pregnancy/lactation. Personal experience after taking the product: Experienced mild drowsiness 30-60 minutes post-ingestion, aiding sleep onset. No next-day grogginess. Value & practicality: Cost per effective dose (~300 mg) is reasonable. Convenience is low due to preparation time. Alternatives like valerian capsules/extracts offer more precise dosing. Overall verdict + score: Moderate efficacy supported by mixed evidence. Acceptable quality but lacks transparency. Situational use for mild sleep issues. Score reflects evidence strength (6/10), safety (8/10), value (7/10), practicality (6/10). Who it's for: Individuals with mild insomnia seeking natural options. Not for severe sleep disorders. I’d consider standardized capsules for better dosing consistency but wouldn’t personally prioritize this form.
really good value the bag is huge and lasts for months
Long time Frontier customer here. I always return to Frontier Co-op for my herbs, roots, and barks. Why? Because they are a good value for the money, properly packaged, fresh with plenty of time (usually one year or more) before expiration, and come in a perfect size for my needs. I tincture this with white willow bark that I also purchase from Frontier. In addition, I prefer the single ingredient options over blends because I prefer to blend my own. In all my years buying Frontier brand, I have never been disappointed! Yes, I will continue to purchase valerian root from Frontier.
Super product, I will definitely order it again, I recommend it to everyone, the packaging is of high quality, and the ingredients are excellent. Fast delivery, everything arrived in good condition and was well packaged !!!
Using to help with nighttime tea, they have a strong smell but it doesn’t overwhelm the tea blend, I was very happy. Just now using for a little bit and it seems to have helped my sleep.
very easy to make, just boil some water, stop the fire, and leave this tea, for infusion, just 5 min, taste is good, and you will relax a lot
Frontier Co-op, Organic Valerian Root (cut & sifted) is another good product by Frontier. It acts as a natural sleep support; however, its strong earthy flavor may be repulsive by some people; thus, it is best to brew it with other herbs in order to avoid any grogginess effect!
I'd been taking Valerian Root in tablets and decided to purchase in its original form for night time teas. This has worked well for me and I've begun to blend my own sleepytime mix. I have the most painful muscle spasms at night and this is one the few products that have helped consistently.
