Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera), often referred to as Indian Ginseng or Winter Cherry, is one of the most powerful herbs in Ayurvedic medicine. Known for its adaptogenic properties, Ashwagandha helps the body cope with stress, supports energy levels, and promotes overall well-being. The name “Ashwagandha” is derived from Sanskrit, meaning “smell of a horse,” implying the strength and vitality it is believed to bestow.

Primarily harvested in India, Ashwagandha root is widely used in nutraceuticals, herbal teas, supplements, and traditional tonics. It is especially beneficial for those seeking mental clarity, stress management, immune support, and reproductive health.
