ASHWAGANDHA
Ashwagandha can help you beat stress, sexual dysfunction, autoimmune disease, arthritis and even cancer...
Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is an Ayurvedic herb also known as Indian ginseng (although it is not strictly a member of the ginseng family) that has been traditionally used as an adrenal and nervous system tonic, an adaptogen, and an immune modulator.
In Ayurveda, it is classified as a rasayana (rejuvenation) herb, meaning that it can promote physical and mental health, rejuvenate the body in debilitated conditions and increase longevity. Current research has implicated Ashwagandha for the treatment of an incredible variety of conditions including: anxiety, sexual dysfunction, neurologically degenerative conditions (Alzheimer's and Parkinson's), autoimmune diseases, arthritis and many different types of cancer.
Ashwagandha as an Adaptogen
Ashwagandha has an active ingredient called withanolides - chemicals that resemble human steroid hormones (stress and sex). Ashwagandha has the potential to help normalize hormone levels, whether high or low. Ashwagandha also helps to prevent the depletion of vitamin C in the body. Vitamin C is needed by the adrenal glands for the production of hormones, such as corisol and sex hormones. Ashwagandha also supports testosterone production which is also produced in the adrenals and is responsible for libido and muscle growth. Ashwagandha has also been studied for its ability to increase sexual functioning and physical endurance as well as it has been found to improve the quality of semen.
Immune System Modulation and Neuroprotection
Ashwagandha also balances the immune system, helping to promote underactive immune response and reduce overactive immune responses like those in autoimmune diseases such as MS, psoriasis, lupus, fibromyalgia, and inflammatory bowel disease. Because of its anti-inflammatory effects, Ashwagandha has also been studied for its ability to protect joint cartilage in cases of rheumatoid and osteoarthritis. Due to its neuro-protective effects, Ashwagandha is also used in cases of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases as well. In addition, this herb has been established as an effective treatment for anxiety in several studies in the last few years.
Ashwagandha and Cancer
Ashwagandha has been shown to kill cancer cells by at least five different pathways. Because of its ability to reduce the expression of a certain estrogen receptor in human tissues, it has been found to help treat certain breast cancers as well as to act as a male aphrodisiac. It has also been found to increase reactive oxygen species (a type of free radical) in many different kinds of cancer cells, helping to force their natural destruction in the body. Some cancer cell types that have been shown to be affected by Ashwagandha are: lymphomas, leukemia, glioblastoma, renal, lung, pancreatic, and breast cancers.
How can I take Ashwagandha?
Ashwagandha can be purchased as raw herb, liquid extract or tincture and encapsulated herb. The root is the part of the plant that is used medicinally, although some of the anti-cancer research involves use of the leaf extract. This herb can be found alone or in combination formulas for the treatment of a variety of conditions. Dosing varies depending on the condition and particular study, but it has been safely supplemented between 1-2g daily of root extract. When Ashwagandha is found in a tea form, it can be safely taken by up to 3 cups a day (using 1-6g of whole herb). As a liquid or tincture, it can be dosed at between 2 and 4ml three times daily. Dosing for leaf extract has not yet been established as the research is still quite new in this area.
Important Information
Pregnant women should not use Ashwagandha because it may increase the risk of miscarriage. Do not use if you suffer from hypertension. Ashwagandha may also increase the effect of sedative and anti-anxiety medication. Do not use if you are taking digoxin as there is a potential for interaction.
