Tranquil Sleep Tincture
This is an alcohol-based liquid extract (tincture) of three herbs extracted together in equal parts: a pungent European root, a small daisy-like flower and the golden root of an arctic succulent. Each is also sold on its own. It is a traditional herbal product that causes drowsiness - please read the safety information below before use.
- Valerian, root - Valeriana officinalis root (Caprifoliaceae)
- Chamomile, flower - Matricaria chamomilla flower (syn. Matricaria recutita; Asteraceae)
- Rhodiola, root - Rhodiola rosea root (Crassulaceae)
- Extract type: Alcohol tincture. Other ingredients: organic alcohol, vegetable glycerin, crystal clear purified water
- Origin: Responsibly sourced cultivated botanicals (valerian from Poland, chamomile from Croatia, rhodiola from Canada). Gluten free. Made in the USA.
What is in the blend
- Valerian root - the root and rhizome of a tall meadow plant of Europe and western Asia with clusters of pale pink flowers; the dried root has the strong, earthy smell that gives the plant its reputation, and it is the ingredient you will taste first.
- Chamomile flower - the small white-and-yellow flower heads of German chamomile, an annual of the daisy family grown in Croatia and across central Europe, with the familiar apple-like scent of chamomile tea.
- Rhodiola root - the thick, rose-scented root of a hardy succulent from arctic and mountain regions of Europe, Asia and North America; ours is cultivated in Canada. It has a different character from the other two herbs - see the safety note.
Why a tincture
The three dried herbs are macerated together in organic alcohol with a little vegetable glycerin and water - the classic herbal method. A tincture keeps for years at room temperature in a cool, dark place, has a bitter, earthy taste dominated by valerian, and a few drops disappear in a glass of water or juice. A serving of 20 to 30 drops is roughly 1 ml of liquid, so the amount of alcohol per serving is small.
How to use
Shake well before use. Put the number of drops shown on the label into a little water or juice and drink it, up to the frequency shown on the label. Do not exceed the label serving. Do not drive or operate machinery after taking it. Use it in short courses rather than continuously, and if you have taken it daily for several weeks, taper off gradually rather than stopping suddenly. Store in a cool, dark place with the cap tight.
Tincture or drops?
If you avoid alcohol or prefer a milder taste, the same three-herb blend is available as Tranquil Sleep Alcohol-Free Drops - the glycerite version. The herbs and proportions are identical; only the extraction liquid differs. Our Sleep Support Tincture is a different blend of valerian, hops, blue vervain and wild lettuce.
Important safety information - please read before use
This blend causes drowsiness, and rhodiola interacts with mood medication. Please read before use.
- Drowsiness: valerian and chamomile can cause drowsiness. Do not drive or operate machinery after taking it. Do not combine with alcohol, sedatives, benzodiazepines, antihistamines or other products that slow the nervous system - the effects add up.
- Antidepressants and mood medication: rhodiola may interact with SSRI, SNRI and MAOI antidepressants and other psychiatric medicines, and has been linked to mania in people with bipolar disorder. Do not use with these medicines or conditions without your doctor.
- Pregnancy / nursing: do not use.
- Liver: rare cases of liver injury have been reported with valerian products. Stop and see a doctor if you notice yellowing of the skin or eyes, dark urine or unusual fatigue.
- Surgery: stop use at least two weeks before scheduled surgery or anesthesia.
- Blood thinners and transplant medicines: chamomile may interact with warfarin and cyclosporine - consult your doctor.
- Hormone-sensitive conditions: chamomile has mild estrogen-like activity - consult your practitioner if you have a hormone-sensitive condition or take birth control pills.
- Allergies: chamomile is a daisy-family (Asteraceae) plant - avoid if you are allergic to ragweed, chrysanthemums, marigolds or daisies.
- Duration: use in short courses; stopping suddenly after weeks of daily valerian has caused withdrawal-type symptoms.
- Rhodiola: can be mildly stimulating in some people - if the blend keeps you awake, discuss it with your practitioner.
- Age: not for children or teenagers.
- Contains alcohol. If you have a medical condition or take medication, consult a qualified healthcare practitioner before use. Do not use it to self-treat any medical condition - see a qualified doctor instead. Keep out of reach of children.
