Ashwagandha
{
Withania somnifera, known commonly as ashwagandha, is an evergreen shrub in the Solanaceae that is native to the Middle East and North Africa, other African regions, southern Europe, and Indian subcontinent. Several other species in the genus Withania are morphologically similar. Common names include Indian ginseng and winter cherry.
The plant, particularly its root powder, has been used for centuries in traditional Indian medicine. W. somnifera is commonly sold as a dietary supplement containing root or leaf powder or extracts. It is undergoing research for potential effects on stress, anxiety, and sleep, but current clinical evidence is insufficient to confirm its safety or efficacy.
It may cause side effects, and should be avoided during pregnancy or in people with hormone-sensitive conditions. It has been linked to rare cases of liver injury, particularly in people with preexisting liver conditions.
