Lanes was created by Gilbert Lane in 1930. Gilbert was passionate about good health and the relationship between diet and wellbeing. He was an early supporter of the idea that we can improve our health through diet and the use of carefully selected plants and nutrients. As a result his company created a demand for special foods and herbal remedies intended to improve people’s quality of life. One of their most popular product lines is Kalms Day & Kalms Night. Kalms Day are traditional herbal remedies, which are used to relieve irritability, anxiety and the stresses of everyday life. Kalms Night contain valerian, traditionally used for its sedative action to relieve sleeplessness without causing drowsiness the next day.
