Ashwagandha is one of the most valuable herbs in ayurveda. Also known as “Winter cherry” and “Indian ginseng,” Ashwagandha is a rejuvenative herb that helps the body adapt to various types of stress (adaptogen), and also promotes stamina and general well-being.

Not only this, according to ayurveda, Ashwagandha is the best herb for balancing Vata dosha (one of three mind-body types in ayurveda). Vata governs all movement in the body, including the movement of nerve impulses throughout the nervous system.
