It is classified as an adaptogen: a substance that helps the body adapt to physical and psychological stress by modulating the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and normalizing physiological stress responses. The primary bioactive constituents are withanolides steroidal lactones concentrated in the root which are responsible for ashwagandha’s adaptogenic, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective properties. Why Organic Ashwagandha Root This formula uses certified organic ashwagandha root not a root and leaf blend. The root is the traditional Ayurvedic preparation and the part used in the majority of clinical research on ashwagandha’s adaptogenic effects. Organic certification ensures the root is grown without synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or fertilizers. Why Black Pepper (Piper nigrum) Black Pepper Fruit (Piper nigrum) contains piperine, a bioavailability enhancing alkaloid that inhibits hepatic and intestinal metabolism of co administered compounds. Piperine has been shown to increase the bioavailability of a range of phytochemicals by inhibiting cytochrome P450 enzymes and P-glycoprotein efflux transporters in the gut wall. Each 2-capsule serving provides 10mg of Black Pepper Fruit alongside 1,300mg of Organic Ashwagandha Root.
