Ecosh Ashwagandha Root Extract 90 capsules

Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) has adaptogenic properties that help to balance the body and support resilience to stress. It contributes to emotional balance and mental and physical well-being. Ashwagandha helps with weakness, fatigue, tiredness and difficulty concentrating. It also promotes sleep and relaxation.

This plant is one of the best known Rasayana (rejuvenating) aids in Ayurveda. Just as ginseng is indispensable in Chinese tradition, aswagandha’s long and brown roots have played a central role in Indian folk medicine for thousands of years. The plant grows as a shrub mainly in India and Nepal. Its flowers are small and green, with ripe fruit that is reddish-orange and very similar to Physalis.

Aswagandha supports restful sleep and relaxation. Aswagandha is one of the few relaxing (non-stimulating) adaptogenic plants which has traditionally been used to increase a general sense of well-being and to support sleep quality. In Latin, ashwagandha literally means “sleepcreator”, but the name of the plant, ashwagandha comes from Sanskrit and is a combination of “ashva” which means the horse and “gandha”, which means smell, as the root of this plant has a strong aroma described as characteristic of a horse. Aswagandha is mainly used to balance the body.
