In Response To: What is Ashwaganda Root? (Maureen)


Ashwaganda root is useful in a decoction preparation, either boiled in milk or water. Use 5 grams in 1/2 cup of liquid. Scientific studies have shown that ashwaganda can act as a sedative and reduce blood pressure and heart rate. It can also act like steroids and create an anti-inflammatory effect in the body. Ashwaganda may even inhibit cancer cell growth and inflammatory diseases.

In general, ashwanganda research shows numerous benefits to using this herb. It does, in fact, seem to fit the profile of an "adaptogenic" herb which is one that helps the body defend itself against any kind of disease or problem. This is perhaps why ashwaganda is seen to be like ginseng, since it is also seen as an all-healing type of herb.
