What is Ashwagandha?
Ashwagandha is an adaptogenic root with well over a thousand years of use as a men's tonic in Ayurvedic practice.
Why is it associated with testosterone support?
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of 64 adults under chronic stress, published in 2012, reported significant reductions in stress-scale scores and serum cortisol over sixty days with a full-spectrum root extract. A 2021 systematic review in Advances in Nutrition examined 32 randomized trials of 13 herbs and singled out Ashwagandha as one of only two with consistent evidence for supporting testosterone in men.
