Ashwagandha Alive, Living Nutrition, 60’s

Ashwagandha Actives

Ashwagandha is rich in a variety of active compounds that may influence important body processes. Many of its benefits are down to its withanolides compounds which are anti-inflammatory and have been shown to improve cognitive functioning. It also contains many phenolic compounds- including flavonoids which have hypoglycemic activity and demonstrated anti-diabetic effects. Its powerful antioxidants also help to destroy the free radicals that cause damage in our body. It also contains alkaloids, amino acids, neurotransmitters, sterols, tannins, lignans and triterpenes.
