Ashwagandha, also known as Indian ginseng, is a medicinal plant native to India and Southeast Asia that has been used for many years in traditional Indian medicine. Ashwaganda is an anti-stress and anxiolytic factor, which could improve symptoms of depression and insomnia.
More recent studies suggest that it would increase libido, improving the sexual capacity of women and also increasing testosterone levels in men. It could have some contraindications, especially if consumed in large doses, and it may not be recommended for some more vulnerable people.
