Question: Is there an herb that is like a muscle relaxer.?
Answers:
Magnesium is an excellent muscle relaxant. Generally speaking, it's very safe and widely available. 250mg before bed is usually enough... you can take more than that if you need to, it isn't toxic at high doses and won't accumulate or anything. BUT if you take too much you'll get diarrhea.

If you have low blood pressure, take blood pressure medicine or other medications, talk to your doctor or to a qualified Naturopathic Doctor before you take Magnesium (or any natural product.) - - Check www.cand.ca to find a qualified ND in your area.

If you're having difficulty sleeping, my best advice would be to find out WHY and treat the underlying problem.

And just to be clear... Valium is NOT made from an extract of Valerian. Valium is a benzodiazepine derivative (diazepam.) This is not related to Valerian at all. Valerian root is classified as a hypnotic, which means it is mildly sedating.Health Question & Answer
