About

Our certified Organic Ashwagandha Root, also known as Withania, is a cornerstone of traditional Ayurvedic practice. This adaptogenic herb has an earthy, slightly bitter flavour and is most commonly enjoyed as a powder mixed into warm milk, smoothies, or herbal tonics.

As always, it's advisable to consult with healthcare professionals for personalised guidance on health concerns.

 

Directions of Use

1. Traditionally, 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of ashwagandha root powder is used per serving.

2. Mix the powder into a cup of warm milk (dairy or plant-based) to create a calming 'moon milk'.

3. Add the powder to smoothies, protein shakes, or warm cereals like porridge.

4. For a simple tea, simmer the root powder in water for 10 minutes. Its flavour is strong, so consider adding spices like cinnamon or cardamom and a sweetener like honey.

5. Store in a cool, dark, airtight container to maintain its potency.
