Ashwagandha is also known as “The Indian Ginseng” because its actions and uses are similar to those of Chinese Ginseng. As an adaptogenic herb, it is one of the most commonly used roots in Traditional Ayurvedic Medicine for increased stamina. It has also been traditionally used to promote a calm mind and encourage restful sleep. It is extensively used in India as a daily tonic and home remedy.

Its Sanskrit name means “that which imparts the strength of a horse,” a name that suggests one of its traditional usages as a traditional Ayurvedic rejuvenative tonic for strength, energy and vitality. According to the energetic principles of Ayurveda, Ashwagandha is bitter, astringent and sweet in the Rasa taste energy, heating in action according to Virya and balancing for Vata and Kapha constitutional doshas, with a potential to aggravate Pitta in those with excess Pitta energy. It is considered a wonderful daily herb to support general well-being, vitality and health.

As one of nature’s most revered botanticals, Ashwagandha has been used for centuries as an important herbal remedy in Ayurvedic Medicine. Our proprietary full spectrum process gently extracts the full array of phytonutrients using a combination of supercritical and hydro-ethanolic extraction, offering the complete signature of the herb in its most potent and pure form. No harsh chemicals, solvents or high heat are used in the process ensuring optimal stability and the complete profile of protective therapeutic benefits as nature intended. This free-flowing soluble powder can be taken as is or added to any beverage, smoothie or recipe. Extremely concentrated. Use ⅛-¼ teaspoon.

For use as a general, daily tonic: Use ⅛-¼ teaspoon of Organic Traditions Ashwagandha Smoothie Booster once or twice daily. Sensitive individuals may want to start with only 1/8th of a teaspoon once daily and assess the results.

How To Use In The Kitchen And On-The-Go:
While most supercritical extracts are only available in a liquid form, Organic Traditions proprietary technology offers this dual- extraction in an easy to use, semisoluble, free flowing powder. The powder is extremely concentrated. Adjust the amount for your needs and for each unique application.

⅛-¼ of a teaspoon of Organic Traditions Ashwagandha Smoothie Booster can be added to 8-16 oz. of water, coconut water, any beverage, smoothie or recipe. Make warm tea-like infusions by adding the powder to warm water (not boiling) and a natural sweetener of your choice such as Organic Traditions Yacon Syrup or Organic Traditions Coconut Palm Sugar.

A cup of Ashwagandha tea (do not use hot or boiling water – lukewarm water is fine) with Yacon or Coconut Palm Sugar is wonderful before any activity, particularly when you need extra stamina or energy. It is excellent as a daily tonic. In traditional Ayurveda, Ashwagandha is often combined with Brahmi or with Shatavari for women in a milk decoction or combined with Ghee. You can choose to use almond milk or any other non-dairy milk as an alternative.

Please note that Ashwagandha has a strong, earthy taste and so use very little and combine with a sweetener of your choice.
