Description

Translated from Sanskrit, ashwagandha means “the smell of a horse”, and is said to endow those who consume it with the strength and energy of one. Ashwagandha, known to some as Indian ginseng for its similar effect, has been used for centuries in Ayurvedic medicine and remains just as highly renown and recommended in their current pharmacopeia. Ashwagandha was traditionally used to restore the immune system following sickness, but has gained popularity for relaxing stress and nerves, stabilizing mood, and even as a sleeping aid. While its effects are not limited to gender or age, ashwagandha is believed to be one of the best herbs for rejuvenating the male libido. The sweet yet bitter notes of ashwagandha make it great for mixing into teas and mixing with milks or smoothies.
