Planetary Formulas Ashwagandha Detail

Ashwagandha Liquid Herbal Extract, Lemon Flavored Ayurvedic Adaptogen Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is one of the most highly respected adaptogenic tonifiers of the 5,000-year-old Ayurvedic herbal tradition of India. Adaptogens are a class of substances said to help the body adapt to physiological and psychological stresses and changes. In this regard, ashwagandha is often compared with Asian Panax Ginseng. Planetary Formulas formulator Michael Tierra, L.Ac., was instrumental in bringing this key botanical to the United States. Adaptogenic Effects of Ashwagandha In modern times, ashwagandha has been researched for its adaptogenic properties. Adaptogens are defined as substances that enhance general adaptive response. These botanicals are increasingly important in today's society, where high stress levels negatively impact many different body systems. Many health practitioners believe adaptogens are just as important to our health as better-known nutrients and botanicals, such as antioxidants. Research suggests the mechanism of action of adaptogens may include modulation of the pituitary-hypothalamus-adrenal gland axis. They increase resistance against external stressors, have a balancing effect and stabilize normal body functions. Ashwagandha: Powerful Adaptogen Ashwagandha has been shown to increase stress resistance, improve memory-related performance, and protect against stressinduced responses such as anxiety, and physiological imbalances, according to numerous animal studies and several human studies. Well-controlled clinical studies are needed to further confirm ashwagandha's benefits for humans. The key constituents of ashwagandha are alkaloids and a group of steroidal lactones known as withanolides. Planetary Formulas now offers you ashwagandha in two convenient forms.
