Organic ashwagandha: 500 mg pure ashwagandha root powder in each capsule

Science-Backed

Ashwagandha is considered the "queen" of Ayurveda, the traditional Indian medicine. It has been known for thousands of years and is currently receiving a lot of attention due to a number of recent studies. Ashwagandha is also called "sleepberry" and is classified as an adaptogenic plant. 

The Federal Institute for Risk Assessment has examined numerous plants and herbal preparations and their intended uses. According to the institute, the sleepberry is used as an analgesic, antipyretic and antimalarial in traditional Chinese medicine and as a remedy with sedative, life-prolonging, rejuvenating and memory-enhancing properties in Ayurveda. [1] 

However, ashwagandha has also become the focus of modern science. Japanese sleep researchers found that the aqueous extract of ashwagandha leaves has sleep-inducing effects. Triethylene glycol was identified as the active ingredient. [2] 

Wide range of benefits of ashwagandha 

Ashwagandha is believed to have many beneficial properties. It is considered the most important adaptogen in Ayurvedic medicine. Adaptogens are supposed to strengthen our vitality and make us more resistant to stress. By harmonizing all bodily functions, they are said to promote general well-being and mental health.

Individuals taking medication should always seek medical advice before using ashwagandha products.
