Ashwagandha - Organic Ashwagandha Root (Withania somnifera) - Supports Stress Balance, Calm & Resilience - Supplements for Men & Women - Vegan & Additive Free - 90 Capsules

I've taken valerian root and camomile before, but they are much better at inducing sleep than at regulating daily stress levels. So, I've decided to try ashwaghanda and I have been taking the supplement for the past week and it has started working straight away. But it did take some time to figure out the best dosage and timing for taking this supplement. As ashwaghanda affects everyone differently, this will be different for everyone. One pill a day was too much for me, as (even though it made it calmer and helped with sleeping more soundly) it also made it groggy and sleepy during the day - not good when you have a high-pressure job where you always have to do presentations and think on your feet (one of the reasons for starting to take ashwaghanda). I've done some research and it was recommended to start from a smaller dose and take the supplement with a meal to minimise any drowsiness. So I took a third of a pill once a day at dinner, and it's been great! Even though I do feel a bit unmotivated to get up in the mornings, it's becoming less of an issue as days go by and I am definitely a lot more chilled out during the day. I am definitely a convert!

I must admit I was a little sceptical about trying these - surely a simple herbal pill cannot be this good! Silly me. Not only my skin looks much healthier - I've been complimented how well I look (I have a rather demanding and stressful job so looking well is not a compliment I would often get before! ;)), but I definitely see the improvement in my energy levels, and what's more important an incredible improvement with my anxiety and stress levels! My temper is much milder, I don't snap so quickly anymore (a fact for which my wonderful, lovely, saintly partner is very grateful, no doubt) and I don't seem to get so stressed so quickly. I have suffered from a rather severe anxiety in the last few years and every since I started using ashwagandha I have been getting less and less anxious. I wholeheartedly recommend it! I have not suffered any side effects, have been getting more restful sleep and see nothing but improvements! One of the reasons I reached for ashwagandha was because my stress and anxiety were really getting out of hand and after a recommendation from a friend (who's incredibly zen, maybe that's what convinced me?!) I was getting to the point that I was willing to try anything to help me find some balance and get me back to my former, happier self - these have definitely helped me achieve that!

HAVE BEEN TAKING 1/2 PER DAY [7DAYS] AND BEEN FEELING THE DIFFERENCE IN MY ENERGY LEVELS, WHICH IS A BLESSING SINCE i have M.E. and seem to have been in an energy crisises for a few years now; reading the labelling properly reralize that I can take 2x2 per day so I'm thinking that I MAY HAVE FOUND SOMETHING SPECIAL IN THIS PRODUCT WHICJH IS MAKING LIFE MORE ENJOYABLE ONCE AGAIN; EVEN MY WEBSITE IS GETTING A GLANCE NOW, WHICH IS SOMETHING i HAVE NOT TOUCHED IN MONTHS... ANYWAY HERES'S TO MORE OF THE SAME AND HOPEFULLY A RESURECTION OF MY ARTWORK DESIGNS AND SALES! Many many thanks for this excellent product.!

This is strong stuff. I've previously had a lower dose and got on well with that but this stuff is strong. I took it at night on the recommendation of other reviewers and it knocked me out! I had a great sleep. But it gave me a really bad facial rash which I've also had with DIM capsules. I stopped taking these, the rash cleared up and I tried again but after two days the rash was back. So disappointed as I know Ashwhaganda works but I can't tolerate this high dose.

Super lifesaver for me, have already ordered 2 more bottles as they take about a week to arrive. Don’t think I’ll ever be without this again. Take 2 an hour or so before bed and see the results - easy to fall asleep and easy to fall asleep again in night if you get up frequently. I’ve been feeling better mentally since starting with these. I do also take gotu kola and 5 htp at nighttime so I don’t how they would be alone but I was already taking the other two and it was only when I added ashwagandha that I started sleeping better and deeper.

Bought this supplement to help with my insomnia after reading the reviews.Prompt next day delivery with Prime. for the first couple of weeks this product helped me sleep quite a lot more than I had been doing previously, but the sleep was intermittent, found myself waking at least four times a night, did seem to fall back asleep quite easily though, do not know if I had been going in to a deeper sleep state, but was dreaming a lot more.However after a couple of weeks, they are working less well, and sometimes not at all,will have a break from them and try again, as my system might have built up a tolerance to them. would recommend for occasional insomnia.

I quite like these. I've been using them just before bed to help me sleep during a massively stressful university exam period, and they really relax me in the evenings. I find it takes 5 capsules (2000 mg of powder) to feel the effect acutely, and after about half an hour the effects come on. I feel very relaxed, much less inclined to overthink and ruminate, and after about 45 minutes quite drowsy. Since I've been taking these, I fall asleep very quickly without tossing and turning, and wake up usually before my 8-hour alarm, feeling very well rested, mentally sharp, and generally more positive on my outlook towards life and work (whereas usually I'd have low quality sleep and wake up hitting my snooze feeling cranky). I have tried taking a lower dose during the day (2 capsules or 3 capsules at a time as indicated on the bottle) but I haven't noticed any effects from such a low dose so I can't say much on that. All in all, great for evening relaxation and sleep help, but didn't do much for daytime stress with low doses.

I suffer from anxiety and insomnia and I have to say this product has really helped me not only to relax and get to sleep in the evenings, but also to have a deep, restful sleep. I don't really believe in supplements and have to say I've tried other things in the past, but this one has really worked for me. I take one capsule about an hour before bed, two if I'm feeling particularly wound up or stressed. Combined with a good unwinding routine, this has me out like a light! I also take it in the mornings if I know I'm going to have a stressful day. Taking it consistently (a bit over a month now) has also improved my energy levels and my overall wellbeing. I find I'm, happier, more chilled out and relaxed since taking them. The caps are not too big to swallow and can be crushed if needed. They are suitable for vegans which is a great plus. I love this product so much, I'm on my second bottle.

Good product. Great price and fast shipment

Good quality , it actually works

This product is a real lifesaver

If you are a high strung person with a turned-up nervous system, Ashwagandha is great for sleep. It is also a bit of an anti-depressant or mood lifter. It improved my dreams. I am a natural insomniac and this is a great product for me. I had to start with a smaller dose (I just opened the capsule and threw half away) until I worked up to it. I can't take Ashwagandha during the day as it makes me too tired and sleepy. I love the Organic India brand, I trust it, I drink their teas as well. You have to be very careful with herbals coming into the country because they are not regulated. Another option is to go to an herbal shop you trust and grind your own herbs in a coffee grinder, buy the empty capsules. Kava-kava you can take during the day; it's the difference between being a b***h and a nice person, it won't make you sleepy. (Not a drug high, nothing like that, it just brings those of us who get irritated at the little things down a notch, smiling at life). You have to be careful of over-burdening your liver, however. I have to limit myself to 250 mg of kava-kava/day to protect my liver (milk thistle helps). I also like the Organic India Tulsi for stress, but the results are not as effective as kava kava for me. This Ashwagandha is a great product, but because there are so many reviews, the price keeps going up, it's OVER-PRICED.* I hate the American capitalist system and how it bleeds the working class dry. Oh, wow, I'm back where I started. Where is my kava-kava? * Buying directly from India is a better price - half price. The delivery is very slow, so order in advance and don't leave those people nasty reviews, it isn't their fault we are half-way around the world from them.

I was skeptical on ashwagandha in general, but I heard to take an organic one with as minimal of ingredients as possible, so I tried this one. But wow this stuff is mindbogglingly good. The most impactful part about taking these is the noticeable improvement to my mood. It also helps with anxiety as well. Tip: If the effects start to wear off over time, that is because your body gets use to it and starts to build resistance to it. Just quit for 2 weeks then you can take it again, but only take it sparsely.
