Brooklyn Tank's Ashwagandha with Black Pepper

Ashwagandha is an evergreen shrub that grows in Asia and Africa. It is commonly used for stress. There is tons of evidence for its use as an "adaptogen." Ashwagandha contains chemicals that might help calm the brain, reduce swelling, lower blood pressure, and improve the immune system. Since ashwagandha is traditionally used as an adaptogen, it is used for many conditions related to stress. Adaptogens are believed to help the body resist physical and mental stress. Some of the conditions it is used for include insomnia, aging, anxiety and many others, and there is good scientific evidence to support these uses.
