Our convenient capsules pack a powerful 450 mg of pure ashwagandha root and feature plant-based ingredients without unnecessary processing. Not only can ashwagandha extract promote a healthy response to stress, it may also help support immune function. No matter which benefits of ashwagandha you’re looking for, this herbal remedy has your back.

As an adaptogen, ashwagandha works by supporting normal cortisol levels and helps regulate our adrenal system. This in turn, balances our physiological responses to stressors and helps us “adapt” to stress more easily. Ashwagandha has traditionally also been used to promote health and longevity, to revitalize the body, support sleep and boost overall wellbeing.

Stress is commonly recognized as a leading cause of physical discomfort, accounting for millions of working days lost. Stress can affect health directly, through autonomic and neuroendocrine responses, but also indirectly, through changes to health behaviors. The body’s stress response involves the release of hormones such as cortisol, adrenaline, and noradrenaline, as well as activation of the autonomic and central nervous systems. As with most systems, balance is key to proper functioning. Unbalanced release and activation of these hormones and systems can result in challenges to physical and mental health.

Additionally, because the immune system receives signals from the brain and nervous systems, stress may play an indirect role in the body’s immune function. Ashwagandha may help support the physiological, cognitive and psychological effects of stress.
