Wishing Wellness Medicinal Garden: Ashwagandha

#Ashwagandha is an incredibly healthy medicinal herb.

It is an adaptogen herb meaning that it can help your body manage stress.

Ashwagandha may also provide other benefits for your body and brain.

It has been shown to lower blood sugar levels, reduce cortisol, boost brain function and help fight symptoms of anxiety and depression.
Ashwagandha is one of the most important herbs in Ayurveda, a form of alternative medicine based on Indian principles of natural healing.

It has been used for over 3,000 years to relieve stress, increase energy levels and improve concentration.

Dr Scott grew this herb from seed in his #medicinalgarden and will use the root in teas and to make #tincture so that it can be used medicinally.
