Ashwagandha Liquid Capsules

The Wellness Way uses organic Ashwagandha to produce its supplements.

Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is a powerful adaptogenic herb. It’s also known as “Ayurvedic Ginseng” or “Indian Ginseng” because it comes from the traditional medical system of India. Used for centuries to prevent fatigue and burnout and improve the immune response, it’s said to give additional life force or chi to those who need it. 

The main bioactive compounds in ashwagandha are withanolides. But scientists have also identified alkaloids and other constituents with therapeutic value. The most studied compound in ashwagandha root is Withaferin A.
