Optimized Ashwagandha Extract
(Stimulant Free)
60 vegetarian capsules
|
| Scientists have discovered that the Indian herb ashwagandha counters
some of the oxidative damage generated by nervous tension.1
Ashwagandha has been shown to confer improvements in well-being and a
healthy outlook.2 In a
large clinical trial, ashwagandha reduced levels of the hormone cortisol
by up to 26 percent, while lowering fasting blood sugar levels and
improving lipid profiles.3
Subjects who took the standardized ashwagandha extract reported
improvements in energy, sleep, and well being, as well as diminished
fatigue.3 Additional
research suggests that ashwagandha confers neuroprotection by supporting
the regeneration of axons and dendrites, nerve cell components that
support brain and nervous system function.4,5
Life Extension members have been obtaining a moderate dose of
ashwagandha extract in the Cognitex formula. In response to findings
indicating that higher potencies may produce greater benefits, Life
Extension has formulated Optimized Ashwagandha Extract.
The suggested dose provides 250 mg standardized, patented,
nonstimulating Sensoril® Ashwagandha Extract. |
