Used by both men and women, it acts to calm the mind and promote sound, restful sleep. As an adaptogen it promotes the body’s ability to maintain homeostasis and resist stress. It prevents or minimizes imbalance that may lead to disease, whether from poor diet, lack of sleep, mental or physical strain, or chemical toxins in the environment. It is especially beneficial in stress related disorders such as hypertension, diabetes, general debility, etc. As a rejuvenative it helps maintain proper nourishment of the tissues, particularly muscle and bone, while supporting the proper function of the adrenals and reproductive system. It’s high iron content makes it useful for anaemia. It also has analgesic, anthelmintic, antiinflammatory, aphrodisiac, astringent, galactagogue, hypnotic, nervine, sedative, spermatogenic, stomachic and tonic properties. The withanolides, similar to the body’s own steroid hormones, inhibit the growth of cancer cells. The herb may be of use in chronic inflammatory diseases such as lupus and rheumatoid arthritis, and as a cancer-protective. It also helps recovery from chronic illness. Its alkaloids showed relaxant and antispasmodic effects against several spasmogens on intestinal, uterine, bronchial, tracheal and blood vascular muscles. Ashwagandha enjoys the reputation in the West as an aphrodisiac, a use supported by a recent study in which more than 70% of men reported increased libido and sexual function after taking the herb.
