Hi everyone!  This is Manu Kalia.  I’m a physical therapist and ayurvedic herbalist.  Today I want to share with you guys about one of my favorite ayurvedic herb, ashwagandha.  Ashwagandha is essentially the Indian ginseng.

The genus and species is Withania somnifera.  Ashwagandha has been used in ayurvedic medicine for thousands of years and I would have to say this is probably one of the top ten herbs or that I consider one of the top ten-ayurvedic herbs and also one of the most common ones used in ayurvedic medicines.  Not only the ashwagandha has amazing qualities for improving overall health but it’s great for addressing various health problems.

There are lots of positive points of ashwagandha but I am going to share some of the key ones.  If you want to learn more about ashwagandha, you can go to my website by clicking on the link below and you can download my free e-book on ‘Top 5 Herbs for Fitness’ and there is tons of information on ashwagandha in the e-book.

One of the key qualities of ashwagandha is that it is an adaptogenic herb.  It improves the ability of your system to handle internal and external stress.  It essentially builds resilience of the system or it builds strength of the system to handle stress.  I think that’s a pretty amazing quality that it has that it really improves the overall strength of the system to not only handle physical but emotional and psychological stress also.

The second important quality of ashwagandha is that it’s a potent analgesic and antiinflammatory, especially in terms of ayurvedic medicine.

It is used extensively in ayurvedic medicine as part of many formulations to address joint pains, arthritic conditions and also for post injury recovery and for overall strength and fitness.

So that is the other quality of ashwagandha with its ability to heal tissues, it’s like a natural anabolic herb, so it improves the muscle tone and power.  So it has a positive anabolic effect not only in muscle but also on nervous system, it strengthens the nervous system.

Even the name ashwagandha stands for back, which imparts the strength of stallion.  The genus and species isWithania somnifera and the word somnifera having to do with sleep, so it also affects the nervous system in terms of letting it relax and settle down which promotes restful sleep.

Ashwagandha has lots of qualities and I have mentioned here some of the key ones.  I would have to say that this is one of my top ones and I have used it and I have had lots of patients benefiting from it, not just in term of recovery after injuries but just building overall strength and fitness also.  I think it can be probably one of the most important herbs for most athletes as it can really help the recovery process.

If you want to learn more about ashwagandha, make sure to click on the link below and it will take you to my website where you can download my free e-book ‘Top 5 Herbs for Fitness’.  I have tons of information there on ashwagandha and many other herbs also.  If you have any questions make sure you leave a comment.  Please subscribe to the channel as I look forward to sharing more information with you guys.

    What dose of Ashwaganda to u suggest for a 60 y.o. lifelong national class endurance athlete. No longer racing but still performance oriented. 5’8’/140lbs. Also, how best to dose for sleep?
    I have a tremendous knowledge base but have already learned lots from following you recently.
    I live in NC and so wish I could work with you in person on several issues. I think you are terrific!!

    • I’m glad I have been of service. I’m sure I would learn a tremendous amount from you as well.

      For sleep more effective if cooked in milk and taken at bedtime 1/2-1 teaspoon. Best to start with 1/2 teaspoon. Hope this helps. I do phone and SKYPE consultations if you ever need help. Best…

  • I have been looking for a good herbal supplement to take to help build up my energy after weeks of illness and being bedbound. I really want to give this a try and I hope it works well for me. Thanks for sharing.

  • I have tried a lot of detox drinks and dishes, but I haven’t tried herbal supplements. This would be a good start for me. Thanks for sharing this.

  • I used to take a liquid ginseng supplement that was very good. I remember having a lot more energy when I was taking it. I’m really not sure why I stopped. Perhaps I will begin again. Thank you.

  • Ashwagandha is not on my radar. I am amazed it can heal tissue.

  • Eileen Mendoza Loya

    I have heard so much about Ashwagandha. I saw it as a feature segment on Fox News, but they were discussing its relaxing properties, for people with insomnia. I did not know that it could also boost your metabolism and help you lose weight. Thank you for sharing.

  • Kat

    I wonder if this herb is similar to gynura and ashitaba. my friend is recommending them.

  • Joanne Dewberry

    Great post really interesting. I’m not of a herb fan unless it’s on my dinner!

  • not heard of this but i doubt it’ll be easy to get in the uk.

  • Tiffany Yong

    I’m not sure if this will ever work out, but hope to collaborate with you some day on youtube videos too!

    Interesting. However, I’m not sure if this is available in the Phils? Is it? I’ve been a fan of your helpful health tips. 😀

  • Ashwagandha can really help your internal system. This can really make you healthier.

  • CourtneyLynne Storms

    I’m all about herbal supplements! Swear I have a supplement for everything!

  • I have heard of this plant through a tv show before but I just can’t remember if this is available in our country (Philippines). I do remember the hosts speaking of the benefits one can get from this plant. I would rather find the plant than go for medicines or even supplements that claim they have this. It’s always better to go herbal.

  • kaka16

    First time to hear/read about ashwagandha and I’m looking for it’s local name here in our country. When I searched the net, it says ashwagandha is winter cherry.

  • Kristen

    I have never heard of this before, but I love that its all natural. nice to know that you suggest it!

  • I still prefer not to consume supplement nowadays. Because I have experience allergy after consuming the so called natural ingredient supplements before.

  • It would be better if you have pictures of the aforementioned herb. I never heard of ashwagandha before, is it winter cherry?

  • lovemindanao

    is this available in the Philippines? I would like to try one if this one really works for me .

  • amotherworld

    Ah yes, ginseng is a very good herb to include in your daily regimen. I need to take this myself.

  • This was an interesting post. I have never taken herbal fitness supplements so it was a learning experience for me.

  • Thanks for the video! I really enjoy Ayerveda remedies. It’s interesting that one of the key qualities of the herb is that it helps with stress.
