While I have your ear, I was wondering if you had any thoughts on the effects of Valarian Root on performance. I have been having trouble sleeping lately and I worry it might be affecting my progress. So, I am considering starting to use it to help normalize my sleep cycle. The primary active ingredient is GABA, so I think its mechanism of action is simply to raise GABA tone, thereby generally depressing the system. I don't know much about its kinetics/half-life etc. or how its other active ingredients might play a role. Any thoughts?
