Ashwagandha Extract

Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is commonly known as “Indian Winter Cherry” or “Indian Ginseng.” It is one of the most important herbs of Ayurvedic medicine, the traditional system of medicine in India. Ashwagandha has been used as a rasayana (tonic) for a wide range of health benefits for over 6,000 years. A rasayana is an herbal preparation that promotes a youthful state of physical and mental health and expands happiness. These types of remedies are given to small children as tonics, and are also taken by the middle-aged and elderly to increase longevity. Most of the raysayana herbs are adaptogenic/anti-stress agents. And among the ayurvedic rasayana herbs, ashwagandha holds the most important place.
