Do you often feel stressed, tired and lost energy to do everyday chores? Then ashwagandha may be for you. An Indian herb that counteracts stress and restores mental balance.
What is ashwagandha?
Ashwagandha is a very important herb in Ayurvedic medicine, more precisely one of the most important. It has been used there for more than 4,000 years. It has been used to increase the body's resilience, strength and endurance.
What is ashwagandha good for?
What is so fascinating about ashwagandha is that it helps where needed. In Ayurveda it is called the "intelligent herb".
There are studies that show that Ashwagandha has the power to withstand stress. What happens is that it normalizes the stress hormone cortisol, which means that the body can rest and recover. This contributes to a number of different health improvements:
- You become more calm
- Muscle strength increases
- Better focus and memory
- Sleep is improved
- Emotional balance in the body
- Better recovery and strength
- Sexual desire and function increase
Does ashwagandha have any side effects?
As long as you follow the recommended dose, there are no reported side effects. However, if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, you should refrain as there are no studies that know for sure how it could affect the fetus.
