Ashwagandha supplement: benefits, uses & dosage

What is ashwagandha?

Ashwagandha (Withania Somnifera) is an adaptogenic herb with thousands of years of history in traditional medicine. People know it as "Indian ginseng" for its role in calming the body's stress response and restoring energy. Our ashwagandha supplement is handcrafted in Senegal from 100% dried roots, available in capsules and tea bags.

Key benefits

Ashwagandha supports your body in several ways:

• Stress relief. Traditional use points to ashwagandha's role in easing irritability, restlessness, and difficulty concentrating.
• Sleep support. The herb may help with frequent waking, trouble falling asleep, and feeling unrefreshed in the morning.
• Stamina and endurance. Ashwagandha has a long history of use for fatigue, shortness of breath, and muscle weakness during physical activity.
• Cognitive clarity. People have turned to ashwagandha to support memory, focus, and mental clarity.
• Energy and vitality. The herb is traditionally used to address low energy, general malaise, and lack of motivation.

Ashwagandha naturally contains iron, calcium, vitamin C, carotene, and fiber, along with moderate protein and carbohydrates.

How it works

Ashwagandha belongs to a class of herbs called adaptogens. Adaptogens are traditionally believed to help the body adapt to physical and emotional stress. Researchers continue to study ashwagandha's compounds and their role in the body's stress response, though more research is needed to confirm specific outcomes.

This isn't a drug and it isn't a cure. It's a traditional herbal supplement, and we present it that way.

Possible side effects

Most people tolerate ashwagandha well when they follow the recommended dosage. If you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or managing a thyroid condition, talk to your doctor before taking ashwagandha, since it may interact with thyroid function.
