Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is an ancient medicinal herb used in Ayurvedic medicine. Research shows it offers multiple evidence-based health benefits:
- Reduces stress and anxiety by lowering cortisol levels
- Improves strength and muscle mass
- Enhances memory and cognitive function
- Helps regulate blood sugar levels
- Supports immune system function
The herb’s adaptogenic properties help your body manage stress more effectively. A 2019 study found that taking 300mg of ashwagandha twice daily significantly reduced stress levels in participants after 8 weeks.
