What you should know about Ashwagandha

Ashwagandha
Ashwagandha is one of the most significant medicinal plants in Ayurveda. Traditionally it is used against stress, as a rejuvenator and to increase the ability to learn and concentrate. In addition, the plant is said to have potency-enhancing properties.

Hochdosiertes Ashwagandha
1 Kapsel von Leafiums Aswhagandha enthält 160 mg Reinextrakt, davon 56 mg Withanolide. Das Präparat ist hochdosiert, vegan, glutenfrei und ohne Trennmittel und Farbstoffe. 1-2 Kapseln am Tag sind ausreichend.

Plant
Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is also called sleeping berry. Ashwagandha describes the plant in Sanskrit which means "smell of the horse". Accordingly, the root smells like horse. Withania describes the plant genus in Latin and somnifera means sleeping. Hence the name sleeping berry.

The name "Indian ginseng" is also common, although there is no botanical relationship to the ginseng plants, but both plants have a similar field of application in the Asian healing arts.

Herstellung
Für die Herstellung von Nahrungsergänzungsmittel werden jedoch die Wurzeln und Blätter verwendet und nicht die Beeren. Die positiven Effekte von Ashwagandha führt man auf die Struktur der Withanolide zurück.

  • Strong against stress
  • Rejuvenating
  • Sleep-inducing
  • Concentration enhancing
  • Antioxidant
  • Anti-inflammatory

Ashwagandha - a true miracle plant
In Ayurvedic medicine, Aswhagandha has been used for several thousand years for numerous ailments such as anxiety, insomnia, impotence, concentration problems, mood swings, etc.

Dank seiner Fähigkeit den Menschen resilienter zu machen, zählt Ashwagandha zu den Adaptogenen. Heisst, dass die Einwirkung von Stress die Gesundheit des Menschen nicht mehr so stark angreifen kann.

Ashwagandha to relieve stress
Permanent stress increases the level of the stress hormone cortisol (adrenaline is also a stress hormone). A chronically high level of cortisol massively impairs health. Unwanted consequences of this are sleep and concentration disorders, depressive moods, anxiety, irritability and much more.

Zahlreiche Studien ergaben, dass die tägliche Einnahme von Ashwagandha den Cortisolspiegel senkt und das Anti-Stress-Hormon DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosteron) steigt. DHEA gilt als Anti-Stress und Anti-Aging-Hormon und ist der Gegenspieler von Cortisol. Das Hormon DHEA spielt in der Stressabwehr eine wichtige Rolle. Gute Studien belegen unter anderem die antidepressive und angstlösende, neuroprotektive Wirkung . 

DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosteron) ist gewissermaßen der Star unter unseren Hormonen
Es übertrifft in der Menge bei weitem andere wichtige Hormone und sein Wirkungsspektrum ist umfangreich:

DHEA fördert das Immunsystem, beeinflusst unsere Lust, fördert die Durchblutung, wirkt entzündungshemmend, baut Zucker ab, hemmt Knochenabbau und fördert selbst die Produktion anderer Geschlechts-Hormone. Außerdem spielt DHEA in der Stressabwehr eine zentrale Rolle.

Increasing stresses and strains are placing more and more demands on us at work and in the family. Fatigue, irritability, tiredness and exhaustion can be the result. Our stress hormone cortisol is alerted and used until the cortisol supply in the body can eventually even be empty. DHEA can intervene in this mechanism as a body defense shield and protect us from further stress damage.

Ashwagandha bei Schlaflosigkeit
In der heutigen modernen Gesellschaft gehören Stress und Schlafstörungen zum Alltag. Immer mehr Menschen schauen sich deshalb nach Alternativen zu synthetischen Schlafmitteln und anderen Medikamenten um.

Ashwagandha is one of these remedies, which has been used in Ayurvedic medicine for thousands of years as a natural sleep aid and antidepressant. Numerous studies prove that Ashwagandha has not lost its importance even in modern times.

Konzentrations- und Lernfördernd
Verschiedene Studien weisen darauf hin, dass Ashwagandha positiv auf die Gehirnleistung und das Gedächtnis wirken kann.

Ashwagandha can improve fertility in men
Ashwagandha is said to be a recommended dietary supplement for male infertility, as the plant - as already mentioned - positively affects the hormone balance. Not only in the context DHEA and cortisol, but also the Testost. level.

Ashwagandha erhöht den Testost.-Spiegel
Eine australische Studie aus dem Jahr 2019 ergab, dass Ashwagandha den DHEA (Anti-Stress-Hormon) und den Testost.-Spiegel erhöhen kann. Dies wiederum kann auf die Struktur der Pflanzenstoffe (Withanolide) zurückgeführt werden.

Ashwagandha as a dietary supplement
Probably the most important and comprehensive herbal monograph on Ashwagandha was developed by the WHO. According to the WHO monograph, the indication "stress" is scientifically proven for Ashwagandha. Its use as a tonic is considered to be well proven and internationally respected.

Origin of Ashwagandha
The geographical distribution of Ashwagandha ranges from subtropical to tropical regions. From the Canary Islands to the Mediterranean regions of North Africa and Europe to the southern Asian countries. The main area of cultivation is mainly in India. The herbaceous plant grows up to two meters high, bears oval leaves and cherry-like flowers of reddish color.
