Ashwagandha, Latin Whitania somnifera, or Indian ginseng, is one of the most precious gems of traditional Ayurvedic medicine. Due to its high content of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, it has beneficial effects on the human body. Its uses are therefore truly varied.
It serves primarily as a tonic and a life-enhancer - it helps people to adapt in difficult and challenging life conditions to maintain the balance of the organism, both emotionally and psychologically. It also acts as a mild antidepressant - improves mood, relieves stress. Its relaxing effect helps to relax the body and promote better quality sleep. It is popularly used by students and managers as a brain tonic due to its ability to improve cognitive function.
Ashwagandha is unique in that it can be used as a stimulant and relaxant at the same time. This ability stems from its mechanism of action on humans. In fact, the stimulation or relaxation is quite different from that of conventional stimulants or relaxants. What Ashwagandha actually does is that it helps balance the mental side of a person - it gently stimulates the over-exhausted person, while it gently calms and relaxes the over-excited and over-excitable person.
RESILIENCE AND RESISTANCE
Ashwagandha is an effective adaptogen - it increases the body's resistance to stress and excessive workload. It mobilises our physical and mental energy reserves, reduces fatigue and allows us to face everyday challenges with greater perspective.
MENTAL BALANCE
The plant helps to nourish and harmonize the mental side of a person - reduces stress and anxiety, relaxes the body, improves the quality of sleep. Conversely, in states of excessive mental exhaustion, it gently energizes and promotes effective functioning.
NOOTROPICUM
Ashwagandha increases the level of acetylcholine in the brain, which has a positive effect on cognitive function. It therefore serves as an effective nootropic - it promotes clarity of mind, improves attention, concentration and memory. It is thus an ideal supplement for students and managers.
IMMUNITY SUPPORT
Thanks to its high content of vitalising substances such as vitamins, minerals, amino acids and antioxidants , Ashwagandha supports the body's defences, slows down the ageing process and has anti-inflammatory properties. It is thus an effective guardian of our immunity and vitality.
Origin and composition
This liquid extract is made exclusively from a root native to India, carefully processed to ensure a high concentration of active ingredients in a convenient 30ml bottle. Read more about the processing method below.
Each bottle contains 20g of Ashwagandha (Whitania somnifera) extract. The extract is concentrated at a ratio of 10:1, which means that it takes 10 kilograms of Ashwagandha to produce 1 kilogram of extract. This is a higher concentration compared to standard extracts with lower ratios (commonly available tinctures usually have a 7:1 or 5:1 ratio).
Ingredients: Ashwagandha root extract (Whitania somnifera), purified water, food grade ethanol 22%. We do not use any fillers or additives.
The pinnacle of extraction alchemy - dual extraction assisted by ultrasonic technology
The product is obtained from the original plant material by a double extraction method - water and alcohol. Hot water allows the extraction of water-soluble bioactive substances, while alcohol is more suitable for the extraction of other water-insoluble substances. By using both extraction reagents, an extract with a high concentration of bioactive substances is achieved.
To create an even more effective extract, we use the unique technology of ultrasonic-assisted extraction (UAE). This method effectively disrupts the normally not easily accessible cell walls of plants, allowing for a more efficient release of bioactive compounds from the original plant matter into the final extract.
Practicality and effectiveness of tincture
Thanks to its easy application, the use of the tincture is very practical. It can be dripped into water, on food or directly into the mouth. This makes it an ideal wellness supplement for traveling.
The tincture is better absorbed by the human body compared to powdered extracts, so the onset of effects is faster and more intense.
Compared to encapsulated extracts, we also see the advantages of the tincture in that we come into direct contact with the flavour - the essence of the plant- through our taste buds before consumption. In TCM and Ayurveda, taste is one of the therapeutic tools. The taste and other properties of the plant activate specific processes of our body already in contact with the taste buds and prepare the body for the therapeutic effect of the product consumed. The taste also activates our digestive system in advance, allowing the tincture to be better absorbed by the body.
EFFECTIVE
Higher and faster bioavailability of active ingredients thanks to the effective breakthrough technology of ultrasonic extraction, considered the pinnacle of extraction alchemy.
100% NATURAL
Our extracts are completely natural - they are organically grown and contain no additives. They are thus the rightful holders of the BIO certification.
TESTED
Our products undergo rigorous quality testing in independent laboratories. The latest tests are available on each product page.
CONSISTENT
Thanks to optimized extraction parameters, the amount of active ingredients in our extracts is as consistent as possible, which makes the actual dosing of the product easier.
AUTHENTIC
The extracts are the result of a careful process of finding the best of nature to support human health. Everything has been carefully verified and tested before being brought to market.
Methods of application and dosage
The tincture can be taken in various ways - sublingually (by placing it under the tongue and then swallowing it), it can be added to tea, coffee, smoothies and other foods.
For starters, we recommend starting with 0.5 ml, once or twice a day. The concentrated formula delivers results even at this dosage. If necessary, the dose can be increased to 1 ml, which often provides optimal effects. We recommend taking this amount twice a day - a total of 2 ml per day.
The presence of ethanol and purified water ensures the tincture has a shelf life of up to 24 months, so you don't have to worry about early degradation. To preserve the maximum effectiveness of the tincture for as long as possible, we recommend storing it away from light, in a dry place, at room temperature or even lower.
Recommended combinations
To promote adaptogenic effects and overall health of the organism, the tincture should be combined with medicinal mushrooms. Also with other adaptogens such as Maca and Cacao.
A synergistic combination of Ashwagandha;
- for cognitive support with Ginkgo, Guayusa, Mucuna, Lion's Mane and Cola nitida.
- to promote body relaxation and quality sleep with Reishi, Kava Kava, Passionflower.
- to promote vitality and a sense of wellbeing with Tulsi, Gotu Kola, Maca and other medicinal mushrooms.
How long before I feel the effects?
This is very individual. It depends on all sorts of body factors, and also on the variant of the tincture. While with some mushrooms we can observe the effects almost immediately, sometimes we need to wait several weeks before the effects are fully manifested. For medicinal mushrooms, there is a rule of thumb (according to TCM) that says we should stick with each mushroom for at least 3 weeks to adequately assess its effects and benefits.
Why does the tincture contain alcohol? Is it necessary?
Alcohol is essential for the efficient extraction of important bioactive compounds that cannot be extracted using hot water. This makes the tincture an even more effective means of supporting your health.
In addition, the alcohol serves as a preservative, keeping the carefully extracted substances stable and helping to ensure the quality and durability of the tincture for a longer period of time.
As a result, when applying the tincture itself, you consume only trace and therefore negligible amounts of alcohol, which can be found in ripe bananas and other fruits, even in bread.
