Ashwagandha is one of the most important herbs in Ayurveda, a form of alternative medicine based on Indian principles of natural healing. It has been used for over 3,000 years to relieve stress, increase energy levels and improve concentration.
Ashwagandha is Sanskrit for "smell of the horse", which refers to both its unique smell and ability to increase strength.
The ashwagandha plant is a small shrub with yellow flowers that’s native to India and North Africa. Extracts or powder from the plant’s root or leaves are used to treat a variety of conditions.
Many of its health benefits are attributed to its high concentration of withanolides, which have been shown to fight inflammation and tumor growth
Typically found and cultivated in India, Ashwagandha has been popularly applied to those with overworked and often hypertensed lives. Ashwagandha is India's native answer to Ginseng and is currently being applied in Ayurvedic medicine to treat hypertension and stress related ailments.
