## Description

Valerian Root has been an herbal favorite in many cultures for centuries. Natural color variation may occur in this product.

Review: Amazing! - I have always used melatonin when I needed extra help falling or staying asleep (which is often), but it didn’t always work as well as I hoped and it made me feel less than 100% the next day. Someone recommended I try valerian root so here I am. I have taken this every night for about two weeks now, and not only do I not have trouble falling asleep (I feel like a kid fighting their eyelids), but I also sleep through the ENTIRE night which is a giant win for me. Even with melatonin, I would wake up multiple times each night. Needless to say I have put my melatonin away now that I have found this. *The only downside is that the smell is super strong, like a strong, aged Parmesan cheese. Just holding the capsules for half a second before taking them leaves a little of the scent behind and they have a slight taste but it is manageable and well worth it to sleep well!*
Review: Stink pills. - I give it 5 stars for results. Definitely helps me relax and sleep. But boy does it stink, I have to wash my hands after I pop 2 pills. Its like your finger poked through the toilet paper stinky, no joke. But if you can get by that like I can, it works. Worth a try.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it smell bad - like doggy doo?  In my experience valerian has worked for me - but I had to double bag the bottle**
A: Def smells like poop 💩 and is very noticeable after I open the bottle, but I am not able to smell them if the bottle is capped. I have to wash my hands (and sometimes around my mouth) after handling the capsules. I didn’t have any digestive issues nor did I burp poop air. Thankfully, the stank doesn’t linger for long. They seem to help with anxiety and it took a few weeks before I noticed a difference. If the stank is proportional to their effectiveness and you can tolerate the smell, then these will hopefully help you.

**Q: What is the country of origin of the ingredients?**
A: The label says "Manufactured by NOW FOODS . . . Bloomingdale, IL," but the country of origin is not stated.  Checking the company's website does not provide any additional information.

**Q: Is it 500 mg per pill or in two pills. what does that 500 mg represent?**
A: This item is 500 mg per capsule.

**Q: is this vegan?**
A: Yes, it says on the front of the bottle "vegetarian/vegan".

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Stink pills.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works fantastic
*by R***L on May 3, 2026*

I did not expect this to work as well as it does! It works better than melatonin for me, which I was not expecting at all. On those rough nights, I’ll take these and normally when I take anything drowsy, I get restless legs, even with melatonin, but this doesn’t give me as bad of restless legs as other things which is a plus. I would highly recommend if you’re looking for a natural alternative to help you sleep.
