Ashwagandha is a potent herb with a wide variety of applications within Ayurvedic medicine. It is a general tonic and rejuvenator, an aphrodisiac, calmer of the nerves, a mild sedative, and one of the best herbs for the treatment of Vata aggravation. Ashwaganda in Sanskrit means, “that which has the smell of a horse”, and it can impart the strength, vitality, and sexual energy of a horse to one who takes it. As a tonic it is especially revitalizing to the plasma of the blood, bone marrow, muscle tissue, and to reproductive tissue. There are many uses of Ashwagandha for all conditions of weakness or tissue deficiency in children and the elderly, as well as for debility due to chronic diseases, overwork, or lack of sleep as a result of mental exhaustion.
