What Is Ashwagandha Root Powder?
A traditional Ayurvedic herb Ashwagandha has been widely used in South Asia for over three thousand years. Ashwagandha has the botanical name Withania Somnifera which translates as 'smell of a horse', it's also known as winter cherry and Indian Ginseng and is cultivated throughout the drier regions of the Indian subcontinent.
The Ashwagandha plant is a small sensitive shrub that only grows to around 30cm tall; the plant is so delicate it is very susceptible to disease.
Our powder is made from ashwagandha whole root; this herb is still widely used in Ayurvedic medicine.
What Is An Adaptogen?
Ashwagandha powder is widely acknowledged as an adaptogen, but what exactly is an adaptogen? Well, adaptogens are substances found in some foods that contain a combination of herbs, oils, amino acids and vitamins that support the body to function normally when under stress.
Stress can be in the form of toxic stress, from external sources such as pollution or internal stress or anxiety.
How To Use Ashwagandha Powder?
Ashwagandha root has a robust but unoffensive taste, it's easily combined into smoothies, oatmeal and cakes; If you suffer from anxiety try mixing it with a milk and honey before bed as it may support normal sleep patterns.
