Rejuvenating Tonifier
Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is one of the world's most powerful adaptogens,
used traditionally in Ayurvedic herbalism to help the body adapt to physiological
and psychological stress. Planetary Formulas Full Spectrum Ashwagandha combines
whole root powder with root extract to capture all the plant's valuable compounds.
The result is a botanical that relaxes the mind, rejuvenates the body, and increases
resistance to stress.
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. Full
Spectrum Ashwagandha tablets combine whole root powder with root extract to
capture all the plant's valuable compounds. Ashwagandha Liquid Extract is prepared
from premium ashwagandha root, organically grown and processed in accordance
with the California Organic Foods Act of 1990.
