ASHWAGANDHA CAPSULE
Ashwagandha is generally well-tolerated, but capsules and pills may mask its unique smell better than extracts and powders. Some people should not take ashwagandha, so speak to a medical expert before starting a supplement regimen.
There are a few human studies on its stress-relieving properties. A review of five studies found the supplement helped lower stress levels. One study showed adults who took 300 milligrams of ashwagandha daily for 8 weeks had lower levels of anxiety and fatigue. They also had an easier time concentrating than adults who did psychotherapy, or talk therapy, for the same amount of time. In another study, adults who took 300 milligrams of ashwagandha daily for 8 weeks had less stress and fewer stress-related food cravings than adults who took a placebo (fake pill) instead.
