Benefits of Ashwagandha

Ashwagandha has a number of health benefits, both physical and mental. According to a study performed by the Department of Pharmacology at the Banaras Hindu University’s Institute of Medical Sciences in Varanasi, India, ashwagandha is characterized as a “rasayana” meaning it promotes both your physical and mental health and also helps to defend and protect the body against disease and damage while also slowing down the aging process. Many studies have concluded that ashwagandha possesses many anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. These properties play a huge role in ashwagandha’s ability to improve thyroid function, relieve adrenal fatigue, combat stress, anxiety, and even depression, balance blood sugar levels, improve memory, boost your immune system, increase stamina and endurance, help increase strength and even improve sexual vigour and fertility - just to name a few.
