. Vd. Sandeep Aggarwal & Dr. Balbir Singh


Abstract

Ashwagandha, a Rasayana, is an herb that is highly valued in Indian Ayurvedic medicine. It is primarily used as a nervine tonic but is also useful for a number of other diseases. In light of these findings, several scientific studies on its adaptogenic and anti-stress characteristics have been carried out. It has been shown to help both elderly people with memory loss and children with memory impairment. Additionally, it has been shown to be beneficial for those with neurological conditions including Parkinson's, Huntington's, and Alzheimer's disease. The medication has been found to be a successful treatment for the growth of cancer in a number of organs and contains anti-inflammatory, anti-arthritic, cardio protecting, anti-stress, tranquilizer-like sedative, and thyro-protective properties.
