Kalms.

Don't assume, just because they are plant extracts, that they are safe to take. If you are on prescription drugs they could interact with them. My thoughts are that big companies make money out of people with anxiety and reinforce the need to take something to deal with it.

Went to the Pharmacist today and asked her opinion. She said it did have the effect of making a person slightly sleepy. It has hops in it and I saw or read something about hops making the hop pickers in Kent sleep well at night.

My son who is bi polar and suffers from fybrolmyalgia says that the placebo effect should never be ruled out. If the person thinks something will work then it probably will. He goes to a Homeopath and gets a lot of benefit from being in a pleasant environment and having time to talk - you don't get that often from the GP.

Going to give the Kalms a go anyway - nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Golfing friends use Bach Flower rescue remedy for pre match nerves and they say it help - I tried it and it didn't but then I'm an old cynic and if its not traditional medicine I don't have faith in it so I didn't even benefit from the placebo effect. They sell lots of it so I wouldn't rule it out- helps a lot of people.

Valerian, gentian & hops Grannyknot

Perhaps eating vast quantities of lettuce might help, it did for Peter Rabbit!

jings I think that's way too dogmatic a statement. I don't know what's in them but I suspect it will include Valerian and other calming herbs. Plus let's not forget the placebo effect. I use Kalms Nights occasionally and no fuzzy head.

There are different tablets in the Kalms range, some specifically for nights.

I took them for a while to help with interview nerves. If you put Kalms reviews into google there is a lot of feedback from Amazon reviews, ciaohealth etc.

There is nothing in them that can possibly help anxiety. They might help you get off to sleep, but you will wake up with a muzzy head and probably have weird dreams. Getting physically tired during the day is much better for that.

The only things that can help anxiety are doctor prescribed.

Don't waste your money.
