Valerian & Spearmint Chocolate Flavor
TerraVita
Overview
The effectiveness of this product is primarily driven by Valerian, which has moderate evidence for improving subjective sleep quality and may offer mild anxiolytic effects. However, the specific glycerite liquid extract form, and the combination with spearmint, have limited direct clinical research. The dosage of the active compounds within the Valerian and Spearmint Glycerite Liquid Extract is not explicitly disclosed, making it difficult to ascertain if optimal therapeutic levels are achieved.
The Good
Utilizes Valerian, a well-researched herb for sleep support and mild anxiety.
Glycerite liquid extract form is alcohol-free, suitable for those avoiding alcohol.
May offer palatable alternative to pills or capsules due to chocolate flavor.
The Bad
Lack of specific dosage information for Valerian and Spearmint in the combined glycerite extract.
Effectiveness of glycerite extracts is less well-studied than traditional alcohol-based extracts.
Benefits for sleep and anxiety are often modest and may take several weeks to appear.
