ASHWAGANDHA

Withania somnifera

ADAPTOGENIC | ENERGISING | STRESS RELIEF

Considered a powerful adaptogenic super herb, Ashwagandha is beneficial to the body and mind in managing stress and fatigue. This medicinal plant has been used for rejuvenation and stress management in Ayurvedic and indigenous medicine for more than 3,000 years. An adaptogen helps the body to adapt and adjust itself depending on the individual’s emotional and physical surroundings. Therefore, it has a calming effect on the nervous system during times of stress. But it also has the ability to improve athletic performance by increasing energy levels, stamina and endurance when the body needs it. Ashwagandha supplements are now gaining more interest. Growing in drier regions and preferring stony soil, it is a drought-resistant hardy herb.

We harness Ashwagandha in our ACTIVE CORALS natural anti-inflammatory supplements. Over 50 chemical constituents have been identified in the various parts of the Ashwagandha plant. The major chemical constituents include Alkaloids, Somniferin, Saponins and Withanolides, and it is also rich in iron. Scientific studies indicate that the plant possesses a marked anti-inflammatory effect and is now prescribed for arthritic issues in modern medicine. These properties make it an ideal ingredient in supplements for joint pain and muscle recovery. In addition, it is used to support concerns with cognitive and neurodegenerative conditions.
