Valerian & Hibiscus Mint Flavor
TerraVita
Overview
This product features Valerian, which has modest evidence for sleep improvement, and Hibiscus, largely studied for cardiovascular health. While Valerian's glycerite form may offer similar benefits to other extracts, specific efficacy data for this combination in a glycerite liquid are limited. The exact concentration of active compounds in the "Valerian & Hibiscus Glycerite Liquid Extract" is a proprietary blend, which makes it challenging to assess whether optimal doses for either ingredient's primary benefits have been met.
The Good
Utilizes well-researched natural ingredients for relaxation and sleep.
Non-habit-forming ingredients.
Comes in a convenient liquid extract form for easy consumption.
The Bad
The exact concentration of Valerian and Hibiscus within the proprietary blend is undisclosed, making dose assessment difficult.
The primary benefit of Hibiscus (blood pressure regulation) is not directly related to sleep, and its role in a sleep aid is unclear.
Valerian's efficacy for sleep can be modest and inconsistent across individuals.
Is it for you?
