5:1 extract
The extract refers to the concentration in equivalent to the amount of plant used.
A 5:1 extract means that each mg of plant extract is equivalent to 5 mg of native plant part.

At HSN we use the best raw materials for the development of our dietary supplements, including herbal extracts.
Valerian Extract by HSN is 5 times more concentrated, and comes from the roots of the plant, the part with the highest valerate content.
This has made it possible to standardise a high % of valerianic acid in the plant.
Standardised valeric acid
Standardisation is the measurement of multiple productions using the same developmental characteristics of a herbal extract to determine the minimum concentration of a chemical constituent in its composition.
In valerian, the compound of greatest functional interest is valeric acid, and a good quality raw material must have a guaranteed content of this compound.
EssentialSeries Valerian Extract is standardised to 0.8% valerianic acid.
Suitable for vegan diets
Herbal extracts are not always suitable for vegans, and sometimes they're not even suitable for vegetarians, why?
Because most dietary supplements use coating agents or lacquers of animal origin, sometimes from gelatine or other connective structures of pigs.
At HSN we use hypromellose, a high-strength glazing, that is derived from plant cellulose.
Valerian Extract by HSN is suitable for vegan diets.
