Our True Ashwagandha is sustainably sourced from Rajasthan, India’s ‘breadbasket’ of ashwagandha, where fertile soil fosters premium quality. Handpicked with care, direct from the root, it offers maximum active compounds. We prioritise sustainable practices and eco-friendly packaging, reflecting our commitment to nature.
Working with your needs
Ashwagandha is an adaptogen, meaning it helps the body respond to stress and restore balance. Its effects are most beneficial when taken as needed, such as to invite calm during a rushed morning before work, or before bed to calm a racing mind. Tune in, listen to your body and respond with a daily ritual of True Ashwagandha+.
Natures stress shield
Ashwagandha helps reduce stress by modulating the HPA axis—the delicate interaction between the hypothalamus, pituitary, and adrenal glands—which regulates the body’s response to stress. Its adaptogenic properties support a balanced response, promoting feelings of calm and resilience against both internal and external stressors.
Herbs throughout history
Echinacea, ginseng, valerian, ashwagandha… Herbs such as these are traditionally used to restore the body’s natural balance. Traced back over 5,000 years, ancient civilizations like the Egyptians, Greeks, and Chinese used herbs for healing, nourishment and rituals. Their legacy shapes modern herbalism, influencing products like our True Ashwagandha.
Phytochemicals
Ashwagandha contains a diverse range of beneficial phytochemicals, including withanolides, alkaloids, saponins, steroidal lactones, and choline. These naturally occurring compounds are known for their adaptogenic, antioxidant, and immune-supporting properties, and have been traditionally used to support stress resilience and cognitive health. Withanolides, the primary active constituents, are particularly noted for their role in promoting balance within the body’s stress response system.
You’ve heard whispers about ashwagandha, the ancient herb with a myriad of health benefits, but perhaps you’re wondering just what the fuss is about. Don’t worry, we’ve got you.
You can take True Ashwagandha at any time of day. If you're looking for energy and stress resilience throughout the day, it’s ideal to take it in the morning. However, if you want to promote relaxation and improve sleep quality, many people find it beneficial to take it in the evening as part of their bedtime routine. You can also split the dose between morning and evening.
Can I remove the powder from the capsule?
It is completely fine to remove the product from the capsule if you have difficulty swallowing or find it difficult to digest and would like to add it to a warm drink. We would encourage to consume within the capsule where possible to optimise absorbability.
Are there any side effects?
Ashwagandha is generally well-tolerated; however, as it is a natural product, some individuals may experience mild side effects in rare cases. If you’re new to Ashwagandha, we recommend starting with a lower dose of one capsule and gradually building up to the two-capsule dose, or splitting the dose across the day. As always, consult your healthcare provider if you have any concerns. Ashwagandha is not recommended for people who are about to have surgery, during pregnancy, or for those who have autoimmune disorders. Although Ashwagandha is known to support thyroid health, those with existing thyroid conditions should consult a health practitioner before supplementing.
I take medications, can I take True Ashwagandha alongside?
While Ashwagandha is a natural supplement, it’s always important to consult your healthcare provider if you are taking medications as Ashwagandha may interact with certain treatments. There is evidence that ashwagandha might interact with some medications, including those for diabetes and high blood pressure, medicines that decrease the immune system response (immunosuppressants), sedatives, anti-seizure medications (anticonvulsants), and thyroid hormone medications.
Can I take Ashwagandha if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?
We do not recommend taking Ashwagandha during pregnancy. However, Ashwagandha may help support hormone balance and manage stress during the transition into motherhood post-birth. While Ashwagandha has many benefits, it has not yet been studied during pregnancy and breastfeeding. We recommend consulting with your healthcare provider before taking Ashwagandha.
Is it safe for long-term use?
As an adaptogen, its benefits build over time, supporting your body’s natural ability to manage stress and maintain balance. Consistent, daily use can help you experience its full spectrum of benefits.
While ashwagandha is safe for long-term use, regular and prolonged intake of any substance, including herbal supplements, can lead to reduced sensitivity over time. By cycling ashwagandha—taking a short break of about one week every three months—you allow your body to reset and maintain its sensitivity to the herb.
Can I take True Ashwagandha if I already use other Ancient + Brave products that contain Ashwagandha?
Yes, True Ashwagandha can be taken alongside other Ancient + Brave products containing Ashwagandha, such as our Cacao blends and Coffee + Collagen blend. However, be mindful of your total Ashwagandha intake to avoid exceeding recommended doses.
