What is Ashwagandha?
Ashwagandha, also called Withania somnifera, is an evergreen plant that grows in India, the Middle East, and parts of Africa.
It plays a predominant role in the Ayurvedic Indian system of medicine (where it is consumed in a fine powder mixed with water or honey)
What are the benefits of Ashwagandha?
Ashwagandha is considered to be a natural adaptogen (a plant with the property of relaxing you and boosting your energies). Ashwagandha might have a calming effect on the mind and help your resilience to sport and stress, leading to a more relaxed lifestyle.*

I did a lot of research on the benefits of ashwagandha, and ordered specifically for the anxiety relief. I was not disappointed, they do help with stress and anxiety. I'm still taking them at night till my body gets used to them, then I will begin taking them during the day. I found an added bonus of falling asleep easier and and getting better quality sleep.
I love this stuff. In the last few years I've had significant depression coupled with anxiety. My fuse has been very short and I am extremely bitchy when I am alone - order soon again!
