Ashwagandha root is a herb of the ages. It is the 'ginseng' of Ayurvedic medicine, the traditional medicine of India, and is considered an 'adaptogen', a term used to describe herbs that improve physical energy and athletic ability, increase immunity to colds, and infections and increase sexual capacity and fertility.
One reason for ashwagandha's reputation as a general energy-promoting, disease-preventing tonic may be its effect on the immune system. A number of studies have shown significant increases in white blood cell counts and other measures of strengthened immunity in rodents given ashwagandha or certain chemicals extracted from the herb. Ashwagandha may also have a mild sedative effect on the central nervous system and in animal studies, it has been shown to be a muscle relaxant. It is commonly used to increase vitality, particularly when recovering from chronic illnesses and pain management for arthritic conditions. Ashwagandha may also help regulate blood sugar which aids in suppressing sugar cravings.
Research shows ashwagandha may be a promising alternative for cancer treatment and prevention. Ashwagandha seems to show positive effects on the endocrine, cardio, and central nervous systems. It is one herb that could help your body produce its own thyroid hormones.
Ashwagandha is used to restore male libido, cure impotence and increase male fertility. It is widely used in southern Asia as a male sexuality tonic. Preliminary studies indicate that the herb helps to reduce the negative effects of stress, slow tumour growth, treat anxiety and insomnia, and reduce cholesterol in addition to increasing sexual performance.
Ashwaghanda is generally safe at the doses recommended on the packaging. In high doses, it may have a steroidal activity similar to Creatine.
Research on ashwagandha has concluded that extracts of the plant have a direct spermatogenic influence on the seminiferous tubules of immature rats presumably by exerting a testosterone-like effect1. It is could also a potential source of hypoglycemic, diuretic, and hypocholesterolemic agents2.
Because ashwagandha has traditionally been used to treat various diseases associated with nerve tissue damage related to the destructive molecules known as free radicals, some researchers have speculated that the herb may have antioxidant properties. Free-radical damage plays a role in normal aging and in such neurological conditions as epilepsy, Parkinson's disease, and Alzheimer's disease.
Hier is my terugvoer oor die Ashwagandha tinktuur wat ek gebruik. Ek is n 45jarige dame van Somerset Wes en het die volgende mediese probleme: Diabetes Tipe 1 - 23jaar al Hoe Cholesterol - 15 jaar Hart probleme - 5jaar Fibromialgie - 15jaar Ek het al 1 hartaanval gehad en n stent gekry en oor die afgelope 8 jaar al 4 beroertes. Die laaste 2 beroertes was einde Oktober 2018 en einde Desember 2018. Na my beroertes het ek n pynlike regterskouer gekry. Die pyn was vanaf my skouer tot in my vingers. Ek het n ortopeet gaan sien wat n "Frozen Shoulder" gediagnoseer het. Hy het my ingespuit met kortisoon en n pynblokker. Dit het slegs vir n dag gehou. Ek het uit moedeloosheid n vriendin/dokter van ons gebel wat spesialseer in Chinese medikasie en praktyke. Sy het aanbeveel dat ek Ashwagandha van Phytoforse by Diskem kry en dit begin gebruik. Gelukkig het Diskem toe nie in voorraad gehad nie en is ons na n gesondheidswinkel in die Mall waar ons Medicoherbs se Ashwagandha gekry het. Ek het verlede Saterdagaand begin met 10 druppels in 50ml water. Reeds die aand het ek beter geslaap. My liggaam is maar seer 24/7 as gevolg van die Fibromialgie en geen medikasie wat ek tot dusver geneem het, het verligting gebring nie. Die Ashwagandha was net voorgeskryf/aanbeveel om te help met die pyn vir my "frozen Shoulder", maar reeds teen Maandag het ek vir my verloofde gese dat ek minder pyn het as gewoonlik in my liggaam. Dit is vandag Donderdag 13 Junie 2019 en my pyn is 90% minder. Ek voel soos n nuwe mens en sal aanhou om die produk te gebruik. Ek hoop van harte dat my "testimony" ook ander fibromialgie pasiente dalk kan help. Baie dankie Ansie Faber
