What is Ashwagandha?

Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is an adaptogenic herb widely used in Ayurvedic medicine. Also known as Indian ginseng, this root has been valued for centuries for its ability to help the body maintain balance in the face of daily stress. NOW Foods presents a standardized ashwagandha extract at 450 mg per dose, in a convenient 90 vegan capsule presentation. Each batch undergoes rigorous quality controls to ensure its purity and potency.

Traditional Benefits of Ashwagandha

In Ayurvedic tradition, ashwagandha is considered a rejuvenating tonic and an adaptogen. It is believed to support overall vitality, promote physical and mental stamina, and contribute to a sense of calm in situations of temporary stress. These uses are based on centuries of traditional practice and not on health claims approved by the EFSA. Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a balanced diet.
