Health benefits at a glance:

First of all, what is ashwagandha? It's an exotic herb used in India for stress relief for hundreds of years. (1) Ashwagandha, also called Withania somnifera, is demonstrated to have calming and neuroprotective effects.

Optimized Ashwagandha is made with Sensoril®, which is a clinically studied ashwagandha extract standardized to the active compounds known as withanolides that make this herb so good for overall well-being.

Why it works:

Chronic stress is tough on both our bodies and minds. Many degenerative diseases and premature aging, are associated with chronic nervous tension. Ashwagandha can help your body manage the effects of stress.

Moreover, nervous tension can generate oxidative damage. Ashwagandha is a powerful antioxidant that can seek out and annihilate free radicals, that cause oxidative stress and play a role in premature aging.

The science behind the product:

Optimized Ashwagandha Extract contains Sensoril® Ashwagandha extract made from both the root and leaf and is standardized to 32% oligosaccharides and 10% withanolide glycoside conjugates.

Clinically proven for stress relief

Ashwagandha is one of the most researched botanicals for stress management, shown to support a healthy stress response, cognitive function, mood, and overall well-being. (2-7) 

In a 60-day clinical trial with 130 adults experiencing chronic stress, participants took varying doses of Sensoril® ashwagandha extract or a placebo. Those taking ashwagandha showed significant improvements in stress-related symptoms, with higher doses providing greater benefits. (2) It also helped balance stress hormones like cortisol and DHEA.

Ashwagandha for mind, mood & memory support 

Stress can impact memory, focus, and mood. (8) In the same study, ashwagandha improved cognitive function, reduced feelings of worry and irritability, and enhanced concentration. Higher doses led to stronger results, including reduced muscle tension linked to stress.

Boosting energy & well-being 

Ashwagandha also improved energy levels and overall well-being. Participants reported less fatigue and better vitality within 30 days, with even greater improvements after 60 days – none of which were observed in the placebo group. (2)

How to use:

Take one (1) capsule twice daily on an empty stomach, or as recommended by a healthcare practitioner.
