Bio Ashwagandha powder 125g
Ashwagandha - also known as Indian ginseng or winter cherry - has been a cornerstone of Ayurvedic medicine for thousands of years. In its homeland, India, it is attributed with immune-boosting, anti-inflammatory, and calming effects, which is why it earned the nickname winter cherry. It is commonly used for treating nervous system disorders as well. The dried roots of the herb are ground into a powder, making it easy to incorporate into daily diet.

What is ashwagandha powder good for?
Ashwagandha has become increasingly popular in the Western world in recent years. However, to understand how it affects the human body, it is worth taking a closer look at this versatile wonder plant.
The ashwagandha plant (Latin: Withania somnifera) is a small, evergreen shrub with velvety leaves and bell-shaped flowers. Apart from its native India, it can also be found in Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and in drier regions of Africa. The plant's real 'power' lies in its roots, which are dried and ground into powder for consumption.
Traditional Indian medicine, known as Ayurveda, has been using ashwagandha for rejuvenating treatments (known as rasayanas) for thousands of years, as Indians believe this herb gives longevity, vitality, and happiness to the consumer. Many people are not aware that ashwagandha can have beneficial effects not only when taken internally but also when applied externally. When applied to knees, elbows, and ankles, it can contribute to maintaining joint health. Of course, most studies focus on the health benefits of consumed ashwagandha.
A study published in 2012 has shown that ashwagandha can help minimize inflammation in the body caused by stress and assist in maintaining healthy levels of cortisol (hydrocortisone). You may rightly wonder what cortisol is and why it is important to keep it in check. Variations in the hormone produced by the adrenal cortex are completely normal to some extent. Aligning with our daily routine, our cortisol levels rise in the morning upon waking and decrease in the evening to trigger the body's natural regenerative, 'self-healing' processes during sleep. However, consistently high cortisol levels can lead to various health issues, including potential damage to the nervous system.
Ashwagandha can help cope with stress, and several studies involving humans have demonstrated that Indian ginseng effectively fights anxiety disorders. Unfortunately, anxiety and stress can also affect fertility. That's why it's good news that ashwagandha can help maintain a balance in male and female hormone levels and improve sperm quality.
A study published in 2015 found that in addition to protecting the nervous system, ashwagandha may also have a positive impact on weight loss and muscle building. Ashwagandha can be helpful during exercise and recovery.
