Ashwagandha (Withania Somnifera) Extract

Description

 Importence of Withania somnifera

Withania somnifera is widely considered as the Indian ginseng. In Ayurveda, it is classified as a rasayana (rejuvenation) and expected to promote physical and mental health, rejuvenate the body in debilitated conditions and increase longevity

 Ashwagandha is used to treat a number of disorders that affect human health including central nervous system (CNS) disorders, particularly in epilepsy, stress and neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinsons and Alzheimers disorders, tardive dyskinesia, cerebral ischemia, and even in the management of drug addiction.

The most useful usage is to reduce stress and perhaps aid in sleep. However, if you take a high dosage or a concentrated extract, you may not notice the relaxation effect as much.

 Ashwagandha extract is classified by many herbalists as an adaptogen. Adaptogen is a specific substance believed to enhance your bodys ability to handle stress.
