Ashwagandha, standardized extract 700 mg, 60 caps

Ashwagandha – Your support in building inner harmony and vitality

Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera), also known as Indian Ginseng, is one of the most vital plants in the Ayurvedic tradition. Its name derives from Sanskrit, where “ashva” means horse and “gandha” means smell, referring to the unique aroma of the fresh root and the traditionally attributed power to support vital strength. While Eastern medicine utilizes the whole plant, modern supplementation focuses primarily on high-concentration root extracts.

Ashwagandha contains numerous bioactive compounds: alkaloids, flavonoids, glycosides, steroids, and steroid lactones. Within the steroid lactones are withanolides, which are believed to be responsible for most of the plant’s benefits. Most of Ashwagandha’s advantages stem, at least partially, from its valuable antioxidant properties and its support of the body’s natural immunity. Ashwagandha can increase levels of antioxidant enzymes, such as glutathione peroxidase and superoxide dismutase, while helping to protect lipids from oxidation.

Why Ashwagandha is the #1 choice among adaptogens:

• Helps maintain normal levels of the stress hormone – cortisol.
• May help alleviate physical discomfort and support joint health.
• Supports peace of mind while boosting vital energy.
• Enhances the body’s protective barriers and stimulates the immune system.
• May improve endurance by supporting optimal hemoglobin levels.

Our supplement offers professional standardization, ensuring precise content of key active compounds: 8% withanolides, 1% alkaloids, and 0.5% withaferin A.

Thanks to this high concentration, every serving provides a consistent and effective dose of plant bioactives, supporting your body on multiple levels.

Comprehensive support for recovery

Ashwagandha is best known for its effects on facilitating relaxation and soothing the effects of stress. Furthermore, increasing evidence confirms its effectiveness in improving sleep quality for those focusing on sleep hygiene. It also improves VO2max, and preliminary evidence suggests it enhances both strength and recovery processes. Ashwagandha may also improve sperm quality parameters for men wishing to take care of their reproductive health.

Mind-Body Harmony

As part of its ability to reduce stress and anxiety, Ashwagandha appears to influence the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis—which plays a key role in the stress response—evidenced by its ability to lower cortisol levels. (source)

Balance and Endurance

Ashwagandha appears to alter the signaling of several neurotransmitters that are dysfunctional in anxiety disorders. Its ability to enhance GABAA receptor signaling is believed to underpin its benefits for sleep. Ashwagandha may improve endurance by increasing hemoglobin levels (the protein in red blood cells responsible for transporting oxygen), though further research is needed to confirm this effect.

The Male Element

Ashwagandha’s ability to improve reproductive health is attributed to its antioxidant action combined with its ability to increase testosterone levels. This effect is more notable in men with infertility or low testosterone, but preliminary evidence suggests it may also boost testosterone levels in healthy men. (source)

Precise dosing for maximum benefits: Studies on Ashwagandha root extract have used doses of 250–600 mg/day. The most common protocol is 600 mg/day divided into two doses (morning with breakfast and evening). Evidence suggests that 600 mg daily is superior to lower doses for improving sleep. Similarly, 600–1000 mg/day may be more beneficial for intense trainers. Remember to consult a physician or pharmacist before use to determine the optimal dose for yourself.
