Herbal tradition
In Ayurveda, ashwagandha root has traditionally been used as a rasayana, or restorative tonic. Herbalists have turned to it during high stress or demanding periods and as part of traditions concerned with stamina, recovery, cortisol levels and a settled mind. Clinical trials indicate regular intake helps improve sleep quality. Traditional and early clinical evidence of using Ashwagandha indicates sharper focus, memory and physical resilience under fatique.
