Ashwagandha is a small shrub with yellow flowers and a potent root known for multiple health benefits. Ashwagandha or ‘Withania Somnifera,’ grows in warm temperatures in the dry regions of India, the Middle East, and parts of Africa. It is commonly referred to as ‘Indian Ginseng” or “King of Ayurvedic herbs,” and its use can be dated back to around 6,000 BC. This medicinal herb has been used in India and Pakistan and has impressed the Chinese medicine system for centuries. Ashwagandha is known to improve brain function, boost energy, and reduce stress and anxiety. Known as the “Prince of Herbs” in Ayurveda, its roots are used internally, while its leaves are used topically.
