Valerian acts on the nervous system through its valerenic acids, especially on a neurotransmitter called GABA. It is believed to have two effects:

• it may reduce the time it takes to fall asleep;
• it may limit symptoms associated with stress.

GABA can have an inhibiting and calming effect on the brain's synapses by keeping stress signals from reaching them. This creates a relaxing, calming effect.
