Anxiety & Stress:

Ashwagandha supplementation has been found to significantly reduce anxiety and stress levels compared to placebo, according to a meta-analysis conducted in 2021.

Adaptogen:

Ashwagandha is well-regarded as a herbal adaptogen that can strengthen stress resistance. One study that gave participants a high-strength ashwagandha root extract demonstrated improved sleep quality and lower serum cortisol compared to the placebo group, showing that ashwagandha can play an important role in ameliorating stress-related symptoms.

Neuroprotective:

Compounds in ashwagandha may have neuroprotective effects, and may protect against the accumulation of amyloid plaques that are common in dementia and Alzheimer's disease, as well as the presence of inflammatory and oxidative chemicals in the brain that are associated with those conditions.

Ashwagandha is considered a ‘Rasayana’ or tonic in traditional Ayurvedic medicine. Its Sanskrit name translates to 'smell of a horse’, not only because of its strong odour, but because it is deemed to impart vitality and strength to whoever consumes it. It is used for various ailments but most often as an adaptogen and nervine tonic.

Sourced from co-operative agroecological farms in India with strong ethical and sustainable values, our Ashwagandha undergoes hot-water extraction and is suspended in glycerine, ensuring a natural approach to wellbeing.

Agroecological Ashwagandha Extract is an herbal adaptogen rich in valuable compounds such as withanolides. These are key active flavonoids that can bring balance and harmony to the body during demanding periods.
