      <description><![CDATA[I used to take Ashwagandha for my anxiety and I loved it so much. I really enjoyed using the liquid form that drops and having it to my beverages instead of just the capsule form, but it’s really great to know about all the different methods and benefits I can have besides just anxiety reduction. I find it. It’s really helpful and really supportive. It was recommended to me by my doctor of course always talk to yours first but it really was a great addition to my routine for me.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is an adaptogenic herb that I use on a regular basis. Important to cycle on and off, never taking too much for too long. Moderation is key. It can have an effect on the liver and sometimes lead to emotional numbness, but this can be reduced by just taking a break, and start up again later. One time I took too much, and I actually felt a small momentary pain where my liver is, as if a warning to not take so much. Now, I only take half a capsule at most. The body can only use so much, no need to waste it on overdosing. That's why I also have a tea, the effect is more prolonged lasting the whole day if timed right.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[The lab I work in studies prevalent human gut bacteria E. lenta. The unique E. lenta cgr2 enzyme enables E. lenta to metabolize heart medication digoxin into the inactive form dihydrodigoxin (to reiterate and emphasize the point: E. lenta is the only gut bacterium that can break down digoxin because this enzyme is unique to E. lenta). Given there is a potential for digoxin interaction with ashawaghanda, I wonder if E. lenta can also metabolize ashawaghanda? That would be interesting to investigate! :)]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[I am generally a medication/supplement skeptic but I SWEAR by this.
As a man, I noticed a great upgrade in my libido. More energy during my day. With a higher dose, I can definitely feel the substance in my body giving me energy to go through the day. Also take during a meal to avoid stomach upset. Did not notice a change in my anxiety; however, I think? Try it for yourself, everyone's body reacts differently.]]></description>
