Traditional Medicinals Organic Nighty Night Extra Tea With Valerian Root for Relaxation, 16 Tea Bags (Pack of 1)

Excellent quality and price! I use this to relax both before bed and if I'm having a bad day. It works well for me. I steep it for about 12-15 minutes. The taste is good but the smell is not as good. It relaxes me when I'm having anxiety and helps to stop the racing thoughts at bedtime. I'll rotate this with Chamomile & Lavender tea. I find this one works a little better.

That's the entire thing. This works (for me) . I boil the water in a COSORI Electric Gooseneck Kettle (get one. seriously . it's a great thing to have for tea/hot water and saves you a bunch of time) . Anyway. I boil the water to about 190 in the kettle. I then pour the water into a larger mug , say 12oz , ceramic mug. Quick note. DON'T tear open the package until JUST before you pour water on it in the mug. That will limit the "distinctive" odor. And yes, it really does smell bad. The Valerian root packs a punch. Read up on it in case your are curious as to why the smell is there. Long story short : Acid and Oils . Funny note - If it does not smell bad then your product isn't genuine. Note: I neglected to mention this but it is VERY important. This product contains Valerian Root. Valerian Root is meant to adjust the body for ones restful sleep over time, reducing anxiety and restlessness, consistent sleep support. Support for Sleep. Basically it helps you relax and find a better sleep pattern. This change is gradual and not meant as a quick fix for a good night's sleep. Your process to find THAT sleep may take a few days and or week.It DOES work but that change is gradual. It helps to build a restful sleep over time. If you want something immediate then look for a product that contains Melatonin. Melatonin is produced from your body while Valerian Root is a plant based herb that takes some time to change the body via GABA. And THAT is something that the Root does . It increases GABA in the brain . I can not stress this enough : Look for something that has Melatonin. THIS is meant to help a person fall asleep. Celestial Seasonings Sleepytime Extra is a good example for something that contains chamomile, spearmint and others ( It contains Valerian too but that amount is used to help the effectivness ) . Look for Twinings Superblends Sleep+ for something stronger and immediate use . Also. Do NOT take Valerian and Melatonin at the same time. Yes the one product has Valerian too but not in an amount one may think. For example : Do NOT drink this tea (Nighty Night Extra Tea With Valerian Root) with something like sleep+ ( Melatonin ) . It will REALLY screw up your body.

I bought this tea to help with my insomnia, and it is honestly the best nighttime tea I’ve ever tried. Not only did it help me fall asleep quickly, but I also stayed asleep through the entire night, which is rare for me. The only downside is the smell. The taste isn’t great, but it’s manageable. However, the smell is pretty strong and unpleasant. As soon as you open the tea bag, you can smell it immediately—it almost has a sewer-like odor. I literally drink it without breathing too deeply. If you can tolerate a strong smell, this tea is absolutely worth it. For anyone struggling with insomnia, I 100% recommend it.

This tea knocks me out. Literally Nighty Night! Within 15 minutes I’m drowsy. I tried so many different supplements, nothing works better than this tea. I use a small tea cup and let it steep for at least 5 minutes; longer is better. I’m not drinking it like I drink other teas. The goal is to drink it up in a few sips. The cons here are…smells like feet to me and taste ok. I can get it down. But it wouldn’t be my first choice for enjoying a cup of herbal tea. 5 stars for sleep effect, 4 for the taste

Does it have a particular scent? Yes. Is it the most tasty thing? No. But it’s not unbearable and it WORKS. I slip off into such a nice sleep every night I won’t go without it. My boyfriend also has always had issues sleeping and this helps him as well.

If you struggle sleeping all through the night or falling into a deep REM, try this! I drink it with nothing added to it right before I’m ready to go to bed. It tastes good, it doesn’t need anything added like sweetener.

Tea is good,helps me relax to sleep. But the packaging is ridiculous, shipping a soft box of tea in a bag, by usps and they crush it everytime. Needs to be in a box.

I sleep better using this tea. Tastes good also. Only problem I have is that in all 3 deliveries, at least 1 or more of the boxes are smashed. Fortunately, the teabags inside have been OK so far. This is on the packager, not the delivery guy or the Tea company.
