I have gone through a bag from the herb store and a bottle of capsules. It gives you a very restful sleep and does enhance dreams. I don't think I have ever taken it while awake.

I must have had some insomnia when I decided to buy it, but I usually took it to enhance dreams and because it just makes me feel like I slept better when I wake up.

I looked up some prior research regarding valerian root (and ginko biloba) to find some statistical confirmation and found that compunds in both valerian and ginko may have mutagenic effects on certain cells in the body.

The information is quite hard to decode and understnad, but those are some of the conclusions I had come across. Does anyone have a link to a good study confirming or disputing this evidence?

Multiple studies did show with statistical significance that both valerian and ginko have effects for which they are known...

Valerian
Technical Name: (Valeriana officinalis) Root of the valerian plant
Used for: Insomnia (it's a safe sleeping aid); anxiety
Available In: Tincture, extract, tablets
Herb Drug: Valerian interacts with alcohol, some antihistamines, muscle relaxants, psychotropic drugs and narcotics. When taking any of these drugs, you should use valerian only under the supervision of a health-care provider. May increase sedative effects of anesthesia and should be discontinued at least a week prior to having surgery.
Interaction: Valerian is relatively safe and no significant side effects are known, but try not to use it on a regular basis, or you may become psychologically dependent upon it. People with impaired kidney or liver functions should not take valerian except under a physician's supervision. It should not be used with kava. Use on a short-term basis only.
When Buying: Look for valerian products standardized to 1% valerenic acid.
Dosage and Warning: Adults: Use 1 teaspoon of the tincture in a quarter cup of water, or 1 or 2 tablets, at bedtime.
Child Dosage: One dropperful at bedtime in a quarter cup of water.

I've taken it to help me sleep. Works wonders in the proper dosage. Take too much and it has the opposite effect.

It has this effect on some people. I'm not sure why, but it's not at all uncommon.
