Ashwaghanda is an ancient medicinal adaptogenic herb, meaning that it is capable of helping the body adjust to a variety of stressors. Its list of potential benefits is long, and includes the potential for boosting brain function, reducing cortisol levels (associated with stress), and reducing anxiety and depression. Ashwaghanda has even been shown to increase male fertility. It’s an important layer in both our Ayurvedic Wellness Blend and our Pleasure Blend.
