Ashwagandha Root
-Time-honored Ayurvedic regimen for support of the immune system and general health

Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) has a long history of use in enhancing innate resistance to disease and environmental contaminants. It is one of the most important herbs in traditional Ayurvedic medicine because it helps individuals adapt to stressful conditions, both mental and physical, and aids in maintaining a calm, positive mental attitude. Ashwagandha is an all-purpose immunomodulator that also promotes healthy function of vital organs and helped improve joint function in one human trial, presumably due to its influence on prostanoids and acute phase reactants. It may be particularly helpful for supporting long-term health by maintaining the bodys innate balance.
