Withania somnifera, commonly known as ashwagandha, is a perennial shrub in the nightshade family. It has been used for thousands of years in Asia and remains a key component in herbal formulations today.
The root is often decocted, blended into herbal teas, or made into tinctures.Native to India, ashwagandha grows in the wild and is also cultivated for larger-scale production. All parts of the plant are used, with tender leaves sometimes consumed as a nutritious herb. The name "ashwagandha" is derived from its distinctive scent, often described as horse-like.
In herbal traditions, ashwagandha is valued for its adaptogenic properties, supporting stress management and overall cognitive health. It has a bitter, sweet, and astringent flavor with a mildly warming effect.
