Nerquilizer got its name from a blend of the words 'nerve' & 'tranquil.' This formula is specifically designed to nourish & support the nervous system. Many times the body will tell you it hurts, but it really doesn't have any pain to speak of. What this is, is a misfire of the nerves, a miscommunication. The nervous system could best be described as a bunch of beads & they communicate by sharing a myelin sheath. Now if this nervous system does not have the proper nutrients to be healthy it will give a misfire, & the misfire is interpreted as pain. What this formula does is nourish & tone the nervous system so that severe nerve disorders, clinical depression, insomnia, migraines, can be individually taken care of. When you hear information about herbal formulas, that all of the sudden they've discovered…that this particular herb causes liver damage or such…and you're aware that this herb has been used for centuries and more and all the sudden it's no good, you begin to wonder what the truth really is. I have tracked this misinformation down and in most all cases if the herb in question has been an herb that herbalists have used and relied on for centuries, what has happened is that a big company decided that this particular herb did this wonderful thing, like clearing out congestion in the lungs or relaxing the nervous system. So they look at the chemical make-up of the herb to determine which chemical or group of chemicals accomplishes this marvelous change in the body. Then they chemically recreate it and begin giving it to test subjects. They find that it has the same reaction on the body…cleans out the lungs, calms down the nervous system or whatever…but then they discover that the people that had been taking it all have liver damage or some other unacceptable side effect.  Unfortunately, the information that is released for public consumption is that scientists have discovered that this particular herb (even though it has been used for centuries very safely and effectively) "has a chemical in it that causes liver damage." What they don't tell you is that "we the scientists with all our knowledge and expertise all our equipment and labs and all our massive brains tried to duplicate the effect of the now slandered herb and failed miserably. We were unable to do it. In fact in our failed attempt we produced a chemical that caused liver damage." Case in point: Valerian Rt. is what they looked at to create Valium. There are no similarities between them anymore. Valium controls, becomes habit forming. Common side effects: Drowsiness, dizziness, hallucinations, confusion, depression, irritability, rash, itch, vision changes, constipation or diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, difficult urination, slowed heart beat, breathing difficulty, mouth & throat ulcers, jaundice. Do not take if you have liver, kidney, or lung problems or if you're diabetic or epileptic, and don't breast feed unless you want your baby to have the same stuff in them. Valerian Rt. is a wonderful herb and in combination with the other herbs in Nerquilizer, it is just a part of a wonderful formula. Nerquilizer helps to nourish and strengthen the nervous system, in harmony with our natural body functions. It is not controlling or addictive.         Traditional use of the contents: Skullcap helps nervous tension;  allows sleep to   come   naturally.  Valerian Rt. quiets  &  soothes  the   nervous system.
