Ashwagandha Body & Mind 60 v-caps

When we experience stress, it triggers a part of the nervous system called the autonomic nervous system, which regulates involuntary processes like heart rate and blood pressure, breathing, and digestion. The autonomic nervous system prompts the adrenal glands to release adrenaline and cortisol, triggering our fight-or-flight response. Adrenaline elevates your heart rate and blood pressure, while cortisol increases glucose in the bloodstream to provide energy. 

Cortisol also represses bodily functions that aren’t vital to our survival in a fight or flight situation including the digestive system, the reproductive system, and the immune system. 

It’s natural to experience stress at various points in our lives. But when stress is constant, it can take a toll on your mental and physical health. That’s where herbal support from ashwagandha can come in handy. 

Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is a shrub that grows in India, parts of Africa, and the Mediterranean. It’s been used for centuries in Ayurvedic medicine for its adaptogenic properties and ability to promote balance in the body. Ashwagandha contains high amounts of phytochemicals, including withanolides, which are the naturally occurring compounds behind ashwagandha’s stress-resisting properties.  

Ashwagandha Body & Mind features award-winning KSM-66® ashwagandha, with over 20 human clinical trials supporting its efficacy. A study involving 64 subjects with a history of chronic stress evaluated participants for their related symptoms after supplementing with KSM-66® ashwagandha. When compared to the placebo group, the ashwagandha group showed a significant reduction in stress and anxiety and a decrease in serum cortisol levels of 27.9%. As the most clinically studied ashwagandha on the market, it will give you the uplifting support you need for body and mind.
