Ashwagandha, (Withania somnifera) also known as ‘indian ginseng’ or ‘winter cherry’, is an ancient medicinal herb that has been used for centuries in traditional Ayurvedic medicine. The adaptogenic effects of ashwagandha make it an excellent herbal supplement for helping the body manage stress and mild anxiety.

Ashwagandha is known as an adaptogen which helps the body adapt to stress and stay in balance. It is a herbal supplement that is traditionally used in Western medicine to help calm the mind, soothe nerves, relieve nervous tension and reduce symptoms of mild anxiety.

Our Ashwagandha is a whole food containing the full spectrum of nutrients and vitamins found naturally in this incredible plant. It is also 100% pure.

It is freeze dried slowly to ensure maximum nutrient density.

It is grown to certified organic standards meaning it is independently checked (from farm to bottle) to ensure it does not come into contact with any chemicals.

Most Ashwagandha supplements are irradiated, but ours is not.

Our Ashwagandha is guaranteed to be non-irradiated. Unlike many other brands on the market, which are often irradiated due to government regulations for listed therapeutics with naturally high bacterial counts, our Ashwagandha is freeze dried to meet quality standards without the need for irradiation. This ensures you receive a pure, natural product.
