Ashwagandha is a shrub
cultivated in India and North America whose roots have been used for thousands
of years by Ayurvedic practitioners. Ashwagandha contains flavonoids and many
active ingredients of the withanolide class. Several studies over the past few
years have indicated that ashwagandha has anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor,
anti-stress, antioxidant, mind-boosting, immune-enhancing and rejuvenating
properties. Historically ashwagandha has also been noted to have sex-enhancing
properties.
Ashwagandha Side Effects:
Ashwagandha does not have any significant side effects reported in the
medical literature, but long term studies are not yet available. Nevertheless,
it is best to take breaks from the use of ashwagandha, for instance, one can
take a week off each month or take ashwagandha 4 or 5 times a week as opposed to
daily.
