Ashwagandha is an ancient adaptogenic medicinal herb with multiple health benefits. The irony of Ashwagandha is that it is a tonic and sedative all in one. It has the dual action of energising while calming. It is known to strengthen an exhausted nervous system. Traditionally used as a restorative tonic and today is used to reduce anxiety and stress, help elevate the mood, strengthen muscle tone, promote sleep, increase sperm count and boost a weakened immune system.
