Herb Pharm Ashwagandha Extract is a calming Ayurvedic herb traditionally used to promote a balanced response to stress and to support energy and vitality.* We prepare Ashwagandha extract from the root of Certified Organic Withania somnifera plants. The root is harvested at the peak of readiness, and carefully shade-dried to retain its full color and aroma. Then it is thoroughly extracted. It may be added to water or other liquid for taste and is easily absorbed into the bloodstream. Herb Pharm never uses synthetic solvents. The company's farm is Certified Organic, Bee Friendly, and Salmon Safe. Herb Pharm is the #1 selling liquid herbal extract brand in US Natural Food (SPINS).
