Asteraceae or Compositae is a very large and widespread family of flowering plants.
The family currently has 32,913 accepted species names, in 1,911 genera and 13 subfamilies. In terms of numbers of species,
the Asteraceae are rivaled only by the Orchidaceae. Many members have composite flowers in the form of flower heads surrounded by involucral bracts.
When viewed from a distance, each capitulum may have the appearance of being a single flower.
The name Asteraceae comes from the type genus Aster, from the Greek ἀστήρ, meaning star, and refers to the star-like form of the inflorescence.
Compositae is an older name which refers to the fact that the family is one of the few angiosperm families to have composite flowers.

From a personal perspective, I regard anything from plant life that isn't known to be a poison
and a much safer way of digesting than pharmaceutical concoctions that can cause addiction
and other unwanted side effects... such a hangover which if experienced can prove quite debilitating.

What works for me personally to attain sleep...
is a warm bath or shower not long before I go to bed..
coupled with a warm milky drink, containing Horlicks, Ovaltine or Chamomile tea
all have natural as opposed to synthetic sedative ingredients in promoting sleep'
And crucial for me, getting in to bedtime clothes such as pyjamas or other relaxing attire
associated with slumber.
All these things in incremental stages prepares me for sleep.
If don't go off within twenty minutes or so, I read for a while
and usually don't get to the end of a chapter when my eyes close
and off I go.
