Singatra Pte. Ltd. has already established a strong base in the supply of high assay Valerenic Acid. Also referred to as Valerian Root Extract, it has been used as a medicinal herb since at least the time of ancient Greece and Rome. Itstherapeutic uses were described by Hippocrates, and in the 2nd century, Galen prescribed valerian for insomnia. In the 16th century, it was used to treat nervousness, trembling, headaches, and heart palpitations. In the mid-19th century, valerian was considered a stimulant that caused some of the same complaints it is thought to treat and was generally held in low esteem as a medicinal herb. During World War II, it was used in England to relieve the stress of air raids.
In addition to sleep disorders, valerian has been used for gastrointestinal spasms and distress, epileptic seizures, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Today it is widely used as an active ingredient across many health care products.
