Ashwagandha is a small evergreen shrub. It grows in India, the Middle East, and parts of Africa. The root and berry are used to make medicine
Ashwagandha is commonly used for stress. It is also used as an “adaptogen” for many other conditions, but there is no good scientific evidence to support these other uses.
Don’t confuse ashwagandha with Physalis alkekengi. Both are known as winter cherry. Also, don’t confuse ashwagandha with American ginseng, Panax ginseng, or eleuthero. Ashwagandha contains chemicals that might help calm the brain, reduce swelling (inflammation), lower blood pressure, and alter the immune system.

    I was looking for somewhere to get dried ashwagandha root, as a possible stress relief aid for my husband, who is resistant to a lot of typical medicines (they don’t have much affect on him, if any). This stuff worked great – I was able to weigh it out into an effective dose easily with a micro scale, and after some experimentation, was able to brew it into a tea that was drinkable.
    It really helped – it took the edge right off of the anxiety on stressful days. However, I recommend powdering this and putting it in a capsule to swallow if you’re picky about flavor. The blend I made that was drinkable (after much trial and error) was 600 mg ashwagandha, 3 buds of chamomile, about 1/4 teaspoon hibiscus petals, about 1/4 teaspoon orange peel, and about half a teaspoon of jasmine peach green tea. Ashwagandha, as it turns out, is great for anxiety, but it tastes like salty, oily bone broth when brewed either by itself or with ingredients that don’t sufficiently temper the flavor. The blend I ended up with has no weird flavor to it though, it just tastes like a tea.
