Saying a product is "life changing" is a truly bold statement. But, I honestly do feel that ashwagandha has not only helped me to better manage the sometimes-incapacitating grief I experience after losing my son, it also helps me to maintain the mental strength I need to push forward each day. I had often said that I couldn't live without Jesus and exercise. I have now added ashwagandha to that list as well.
Ashwagandha is sometimes called "Indian Ginseng." The root and berry of the ashwagandha plant are used for a variety of medicinal purposes including alleviating arthritic symptoms, lowering blood sugar, managing cholesterol, addressing epilepsy and memory loss, and helping with thyroid issues. Popular in Ayurvedic medicine, the benefits of ashwagandha are really just being understood and studied here in the United States. Many studies have focused on adrenal issues and ashwagandha has demonstrated efficacy in improving cortisol levels and balancing hormones.
Ashwagandha is one of the most powerful herbs in Ayurvedic medicine.
It is an ancient adaptogen herb traditionally used in Ayurvedic healing for its balancing and restorative benefits. Having shown remarkable results for promoting healthy adrenaline levels, restoring positive mood and ease restlessness.

For me, ashwagandha has shown its value in helping manage emotional, physical and chemical stress. Grief isn't just an emotional response to tragic loss, it's also a physical and chemical reaction to trauma. I am naturally a very upbeat and energetic person, but I found the effects of grief left me unable to function at all. While grief is natural and will be a part of my life until I see my son again in Heaven, I also know that it honors my son's memory for me to be the person God created me to be. Why ashwagandha is so effective in improving brain health is still being understood. The science behind the herb's benefits is catching up to what holistic practitioners have known for many years.
I can only speak from personal experience. Ashwagandha has made a tremendous difference for me in being able to function and move forward every day. I know that one of the biggest callings on my life is to help others on their journey to wellness. Ashwagandha is helping me to do just that.
