Ashwagandha has a documented history of use in India that spans more than 5,000 years. The herb is particularly significant in Ayurveda, India’s ancient system of healing. The key role of the herb is that of an adaptogen, meaning that it helps the various body systems to regain balance after undergoing a period of stress or trauma.
Ashwagandha has a strong, distinct aroma and taste that isn’t particularly palatable alone. Use with other adaptogen herbs in tonics and teas.
