Ashwagandha Root is “The Iconic Adaptogen”, holding a legendary status in both the scientific realm and Ayurveda, where it has been used for over 3 000 years to enhance the body’s resilience to stress. Often referred to as “Indian Ginseng,” it originates from India where it’s prized for promoting energy, clarity, and deep vitality. Modern research confirms its remarkable ability to modulate cortisol levels, support the nervous system, and enhance cognitive function - thanks to its potent phytochemicals like withanolides and alkaloids.
♡ Why we love it: Ashwagandha Root helps ease anxiety, improve sleep, and support stamina - both physically and mentally. It may help balance sex hormones and nourish reproductive health across all genders, making it a valuable ally during times of hormonal fluctuation, burnout or fatigue. It can be brewed as a tea, taken in tinctures, or ingested in powder form to support emotional stability and thyroid function. Though less common, Ashwagandha also shines in skincare - its saponins and antioxidants help calm inflammation, protect the skin barrier and promotes collagen production- making it a powerful ally both inside and out.
The powder form is easier to use in smoothies, energy drinks, supplements, and as a daily tonic.
Sizes: 75g.
