Sustainable Packaging

Our herbs are packaged in resealable pouches that protect against light, air, and moisture, helping to preserve their aroma, quality, and properties as well as possible. The pouches are made of paper with a compostable protective layer and are industrially compostable. In many municipalities, they can be disposed of with organic waste. Home composting is also possible, although it may take a bit longer (about 1–2 years). More information about our packaging choice.

Attention for a moment

Always use after meals, then more soothing. Never use the herb for more than 3 weeks due to its slightly addictive effects! Valerian can potentiate the effects of other sedative drugs, especially in the elderly, so be careful when combining Valerian and benzodiazepines.
