## Description

Scientists have discovered that the Indian herb ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) counters some of the oxidative damage generated by nervous tension. Ashwagandha has been the subject of animal studies and is believed to confer improvements in well-being and a healthy outlook in humans.In a large clinical trial, ashwagandha reduced levels of the hormone cortisol by up to 26% while maintaining already normal blood sugar levels and lipid profiles. Subjects who took the standardized ashwagandha extract reported improvements in energy, sleep and well-being, as well as diminished fatigue. Additional research suggests that ashwagandha confers neuroprotection by supporting the regeneration of axons and dendrites, nerve cell components that support brain and nervous system function.The suggested daily dose provides 250 mg of standardized, patented, non-stimulating Sensoril Ashwagandha Extract.

Review: Good clean product - Life Extension is a great company. This product is very good for sleep and calming the mind. My 85 yr old mom uses this when she finds it difficult to fall asleep.
Review: As a man in my early 70s, I struggle to get good quality sleep. Ashwagandha is an ancient medicinal herb classified as an adaptogen, meaning that it may help your body in managing stress and anxiety by regulating cortisol levels. In addition, it is claimed to give your brain a boost, lower blood sugar, and reduce depression and inflammation, etc. Since I suspect much of my sleep problem is due to anxiety and stress, I decided to give this a try. After a week or so of use, I believe this has helped. The effect seems to be rather subtle and although I still wake at night, I seem to resume sleep quicker. I started taking the product in the morning only and at 1/2 the recommended dose since I'm rather sensitive to any medication. I tried taking it at noon or early afternoon and this seems to have a negative affect in my sleeping. I would find it more difficult to initially go to sleep or return to sleep after waking, but by early morning I was sleeping much better and really mellowed out. Perhaps the product works in reducing stress and anxiety during the day, and as the body continues to metabolize the remaining ashwagandha in your body during the evening, it leaves you in a more relaxed state by the time you go to bed, thus allowing a person to get to sleep sooner. Maybe the reduction in stress is limited to the body's awake time and thus doesn't have the same effect while I'm asleep. My side effects, which are common, have been less stressful dreams at night and a bit of vertigo which is so slight in my case that I will gladly trade this for the positive effects I'm experiencing. I chose this Life Extension product based on the Sensoril formulation of this ashwagandha product, Life Extensions reputation of good products, and reviews from others here at desertcart. After taking this product for about 3 months, I reduced the dosage to 1/4 of the recommended dosage and am alternating this product with another brand. Check my other reviews and may God help you in your quest for good sleep.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this product third party tested, to confirm the validity?**
A: Not all life extension vitamins are third party tested. I looked on their website and couldn’t find any information on this. I just went with THORNE. They have NSF certified facilities & very high quality. If a company is wasting my time by not sharing that info, they are already off my list. Time is way more valuable than money to me.

**Q: Has the life extension ashwaganda helped you? whats your personal experience both pros and cons**
A: It is hard to answer your question because I use it in combination with other supplements to achieve a certain outcome which they do. It is said that this product helps to reduce stress. I have had a number of stressful situations which I have managed pretty well. I have to think that this helped.

**Q: I've read black pepper is necessary for optimal absorption and effectiveness yet do not see it listed in your ingredients.  ???**
A: I have been taking Life  Extension ashwagandha for months. I love it, keeps me well balanced with my own moods. I have never heard it needs black pepper for better absorption. I can't take black pepper 'cause it gives me a stomach ache. I don't think it's necessary. But, it's up to you.

**Q: Does this product now contain the newer 10% withanolide version of Sensoril? Thanks.**
A: That is what was in the bottle I received.
