Maunganui, New Zealand (prHWY.com) March 1, 2013 - Ashwagandha, scientifically known as Withania Somnifera is a very important herb in India's Traditional Ayurvedic medicine. It is found in some regions of Southeast Asia and grown in India because of its numerous health benefits. Ashwagandha extract is well known for producing calming effects on the nervous system, helping the body cope with stress, and strengthening the immune system. With all these Ashwagandha benefits, you should definitely consider adding ashwagandha supplements to your herbal supplementation regimen.

Ashwagandha is a super adaptogen. Meaning, it helps the body generate positive physical and emotional responses to stress. Stress is the body's reaction to particular events that occur in daily life, making it somehow a normal part of life. But when stress becomes chronic and the body finds it difficult to deal with it, stress leads to an unimaginable list of diseases. Chronic stress is a major risk factor in the development of anxiety and the weakening of the immune system.

The adaptogenic powers of ashwagandha root protect the nervous system from brain fag and mental exhaustion, all of which are effects of stress. In chronic stress, regular supply of ashwagandha extract with all its active ingredients called withanolides greatly helps in relieving anxiety. At the same time, it
also boosts the functions of the immune system in fighting viral, bacterial, and fungal infections by ruling out stress as an immune suppressant. It is also noted that stress destroys very important structures in the cell that contributes to the early onset of the signs of ageing. By working to protect the cells from all the stress-related damage, Ashwagandha supplements exhibit clinically proven anti-ageing benefits. And more, it is thought to deliver potent antioxidant protection against oxidative stress, cell death, and mutation.

Recent studies about ashwagandha revealed that it produces the same or better effects compared to common anti-anxiety medications. Depending on the need, the recommended daily dosage for ashwagandha ranges from 300-500 mg once or twice a day. In one of the studies, participants described that ashwaganha extract helped them achieve an improved sense of well-being, longer sleep periods, and reduced stress. Experts also reported that they have observed decreased levels of the stress hormone cortisol.

Other than powerful anti-anxiety, stress management, and immune boosting effects, ashwagandha also offer other compelling health benefits. It is an aphrodisiac, a compound that naturally boosts libido. Ashwagandha extract can be used as an herbal remedy for impotence, erectile dysfunction, and low libido in men and women. In diabetic patients, ashwagandha enhances insulin sensitivity to help glucose enter the cells so it can be used to produce energy. It also plays a role in arthritis treatment with its anti-inflammatory properties.
