  • Summary

  • Ashwagandha (aka: Indian Ginseng, Winter Cherry) is probably one of the most famous herbs used in India. Ancient Vedics have prescribed this herb safely and effectively for various ailments for 1000's of years. Western modern medicine is just now waking up to the potential of this gentle, yet powerful plant medicine. Since Ashwagandha is an adaptogen, it has broad spectrum use, helping the body rejuvenate and balance holistically.

    It is most likely the multi-directional capabilities of this herb that make it easier for people to lose weight while taking it. However, weight issues are a complex issue and a "one size all" approach doesn't always work. It is well documented that chronic stress can lead to serious illnesses, with obesity being one of them.

    As well, some weight related issues are caused by excess inflammation in the body. We also need to take into consideration that poor diets can lead to low-fiber intake (which helps with elimination) and with not getting enough nutrients. This can lead to fatigue, which makes it hard to work out or find the energy to exercise.

    Ashwagandha is well known for reducing the negative impact of stress and helping to increase our resilience to it. (1)
