Ashwagandha, or Withania Somnifera, is an herb native to Asia and Africa. Also called “Indian ginseng,” it's been used in traditional Indian Ayurvedic medicine for thousands of years to ease pain and inflammation, treat insomnia, and boost nutrition, along with other conditions. Ashwagandha is also considered an adaptogen. That means it helps your body better manage stress. Shatavari is an adaptogenic herb. The Shatavari name comes from Sanskrit and can be translated to “curer of a hundred diseases”. As the name implies, the list of conditions that Shatavari is used to treating is quite long. Like all adaptogenic herbs, Shatavari can be used to help your body manage stress and improve your overall health. |
