What is Ashwagandha?
Ashwagandha is a traditional herb that has been used in Ayurvedic, Indian and Unani medicine spanning 3000 years. Classed as a modern-day ‘adaptogen’, ashwagandha promotes balance in many different systems of the body, adapting to your individual needs. Better more, the herb has been given the honorary title of ‘Indian ginseng’ for its wellness properties, through supporting the endocrine and nervous systems.

The root contains several compounds that are considered bioactive, including the steroidal lactones withanolide glycosides and withaferins, alkaloids, acylsteryl glycosides and saponins.
These properties are used to help naturally alleviate stressors, bringing both energy and inner calm. By nourishing a worried mind and relaxing the nervous system, the body is rebalanced.
