Ashwagandha Root is very popular natural remedy. It has a great health benefits.
Ashwagandha is one of the most highly valuable herb in the Ayurvedic medical system. On another trip to India I met with several Ayurvedic doctors and heads of prominent Ayurvedic pharmacies. I decided to ask them the kind of inane question that I am often asked, 'what do you think is the most valuable Ayurvedic herb?' There was an unequivocal answer that ashwagandha was at least equally regarded in Ayurvedic medicine as ginseng is in TCM.

In
order to appreciate the traditional uses and properties of ashwagandha
it is necessary to offer a brief description of the Ayurvedic system of
medicine. Ayurveda, translated as Science of Health, is probably the
oldest existing system of natural healing in the world. Dating back over
many millennia, it is likely to be even older than Traditional Chinese
Medicine (TCM) and may be its origin, as it certainly is the origin of
Tibetan medicine, Middle Eastern Tibb medicine and our own ancient
Greco-Roman medicine. Nearly suppressed by the English
during their occupation of India through the 19th and first part of the
20th centuries, Ayurveda is finally making significant inroads of
acceptability throughout all countries of the Western world.
