Buyer FAQs — Valerian Root Extract

Commercial bulk valerian root extract (Valeriana officinalis) is typically standardized to 0.8% valerenic acid by HPLC assay against a certified reference standard. Some specialty grades are standardized to 1.0% valerenic acid. Valerenic acid is the primary pharmacologically active sesquiterpenic acid marker. Botanix Natural's standard grade is 0.8% valerenic acid, which matches the most commonly specified potency in nutraceutical formulary requirements.

European-origin valerian consistently delivers higher valerenic acid concentration than wild-harvested Asian alternatives due to optimised growing conditions. Full origin documentation is provided with each shipment.
