About this product
What it is.
Why people take it.
- What it is
- Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is a shrub used in Ayurveda, India's traditional system of medicine. This capsule contains its dried, powdered root and a small amount of black pepper.
- Why people take it
- Most people take ashwagandha for stress or sleep. The trials behind that used concentrated root extracts, not plain root powder, so we do not claim those effects for this product. Some experts advise against it during pregnancy, and anyone taking thyroid, diabetes, blood pressure, immune-suppressing or sedative medicines should ask a clinician first.

Common questions
Answered from
the label.
- Is this an extract?
- No. It is dried, ground ashwagandha root, 650 mg per capsule. Most studies used concentrated extracts, which are not equivalent milligram for milligram.
- How many capsules a day?
- The label directs one capsule twice a day, so a 60-capsule bottle lasts about 30 days.
- Was the withanolide content tested?
- No. The batch document we reviewed confirms ashwagandha identity and reports heavy-metal and microbial results, but it does not measure withanolides.
- Who should check with a clinician first?
- Anyone who is pregnant or nursing, under 18, has a thyroid or liver condition, or takes thyroid, diabetes, blood pressure, immune-suppressing or sedative medicines.
