I have bad anxiety socially and due to stress. My blood pressure will suddenly jump and I'll get hot and flustered over the most ridiculous situations. I also have a hard time staying asleep and I wake up multiple times a night. I tried other brands of ashwagandha and they worked and helped a little, but this brand and potency is so far the most effective. I find myself calm and relaxed in situations I would otherwise be stressed over and anxious. I also sleep a lot better and for longer periods of time. It is in no way addicting. If I forget to take it, I can tell because of my stress levels and anxiety. It did take about ten days before I noticed a change in my mood so be patient because it definitely works.

Anxiety, lack of sleep, and weakness. I watched many webinars on health and current disorders affecting the population, and every doctor, herbalist, and naturopath recommended Ashwagandha as a potent adaptogenic herb. After about a week, I noticed I am getting a good 7-8 hrs of restful sleep every night. I wake up refreshed ready to start the day with gusto! My anxiousness is still around, yet I feel more in control of myself. I am very busy going back to school, homework, family life and taking care of my mom-in-law. So a little bit of anxiety is to be expected. I truly believe that Ashwagandha is helping me to become balanced once again.

This product has truly changed my life. I have been dealing with anger issues for a while now. I have plenty of reasons but it started to affect my everyday life. For some reason I found that no matter how long I slept. 2 hours or 10 hours. I will without a doubt wake up mad. Hating everything. I was on prescribed meds that didn't take away my anger at all. Just sedated me. Tired and Still angry. I chose not to sleep at all on days where I knew I wouldn't have hours to talk myself out of it. Life doesn't stop bc your mad.
Anyway. It was 3am and I was doing research on stress/anger/sleep. Looking for answers on why I couldn't sleep without wakeup screaming mad. Never found them. But I found a review from a man with some issues resembling myself. I had nothing to lose. I bought this product and im shocked on how much this has changed my life. I am social again. I have daytime energy. Most importantly 3 days after starting this product I did not wake up angry. First time in years. Its been a few months with this product and I have not woken up angry since starting. This has given me back my life. I am off all medication.(anxiety,depression and even my adhd meds) I have fixed my most important relationships and finally given the chance to be the best father I can be. I can finally enjoy time spent with my family. I can laugh,smile, and have fun again.

Been using this brand of ashwaganda for 6+months. Smooths out mood, things don't bother me much. Everybody around me getting all torked up about stuff... NOT ME
also, I noticed that overall body pain is less when I take it...I discovered it when I ran out and didn't reorder for a week or so. I started to hurt all over again .
Happy this is affordable, so I can take long term.
Inside the package is an invitation for a free bottle. I took advantage of the offer and it came within a week. Nice! Now I have a bottle in reserve. Always appreciate saving $.

Although the packaging is on the minimalistic side, the product inside of it more than makes up for the simplicity! My first week of trying the Ashwagandha happened to be during an incredibly stressful week at work, and although I was certainly aware of the stress around me, the Ashwagandha genuinely helped me remained calm and present instead of dissolving into anxiety-ridden stress. It's not the equivalent of a Xanax, and frankly I didn't want it to be, but it's an excellent tool that I'm excited to continue using. The most important thing to me is that the product works (and it definitely does!) but I do also appreciate that the Ashwagandha inside is certified USDA organic and manufactured in the US because so many supplements are a little shady about where they were made and what exactly they're made from. All in all, I'm a hearty supporter and have already recommended this product to a friend and a coworker as a great supplement to 'take the edge off' of those particularly difficult days.

My anxiety and stress levels have been off the chart to say the least. I’d also noticed I’d been getting ill more frequently even though my home is mostly rebuilt and there is no mold here or where I work. I have been taking Ashwagandha as directed (3 capsules once daily) and the effects were felt that very evening. After three days I noticed my dry hacking cough had finally become productive after 6 months of sniffling like a toddler but no evidence of any congestion other than I could “feel” it. I have been less argumentative and my stomach has stopped revolting against any and all foods I eat.
Seller shipped same day and I received it 3 days earlier than I anticipated. I’m not big on supplements at all, besides my daily multivitamin this is the only other medication of any kind I have been taking religiously and I do plan on continueing.
Melissa T.
Ashwagandha is something I've been taking for a very long time as it is one of the only herbs that helps with my anxiety and coping with stressful situations. I've tried several companies, and this one is by far the best. Definitely would recommend.
Vanessa T.
My husband tells our friends he gets bitched at way less! So there's some solid proof right there!!! Overall this has helped my mood, stress, anxiety and I believe this is making a difference in my night sweats.
Arden S.
I didn't feel anything different during the first week but that was expected. However, the affect may have snuck up on me because around the day 10, I found myself in a state of light meditation (unintentionally) whenever my buttons were pushed. SO STRANGE!! I really don't have the right words to describe this and I don't want to just say "I felt calm". Yes, I am calmer and my mood is very steady... but what I'm experiencing is more than just feeling calm. In a situation I normally would react, I'm going into a light meditation just witnessing my thoughts and feelings pass by. This was my first experience taking Ashwagandha and I am a believer!

Elevated my mood, increased my sex drive!
Teesha K.
I like that I have seen an improvement in my mood, disposition and even my quality of sleep. I have more energy during the evening and after a good night's sleep, I wake up with energy. It's been a long time since that's happened. Taking ashwaghanda is the only change I've made so I attribute these changes to this wonderful product.
Carolyn F.
I take it at night. It does seem to help me sleep a bit deeper.
Bryan S.
Been taking 3 in the morning with “breakfast” usually a snack and some kind of juice. I noticed I was just feeling a little more upbeat than usual after 30-45 mins. For me I personally feel like it lasts somewhere between 4-6 hours but I’m just a little shocked I felt anything at all. I was really skeptical. Would recommend just trying it out, taking it in the morning and just go about your day. See if there’s any extra pep in your step
Blair C.
Due to multiple health problems that I've been experiencing now for over 10 years which has limited my life style immensely, I have been dealing with anxiety, frustration leading to sadness, and mood swings. I've noticed that since I've started taking the Ashwagandha that my mood swings have not been present near as often and my frustration level has been diminished greatly leading to less sadness. It has been great considering I have not been taking it for a full 4 weeks yet. I look forward to seeing how the effectiveness of this is after 30 days and on.
Ellie T.
I feel so energized and less stressed since taking Ashwagandha. My doctor was absolutely right about this product.
Addison L.
Stress has always been a big factor in my life. Even when not being stressed out, my body seems to have been stuck in that state of fight or flight. I'm always on edge over everything. I have had issues with my kidney function and adrenal glands over a few years. Cortisol is released by the adrenal glands in time of need. The fact that my adrenal glands have not been functioning didn't surprise me one bit that I had developed hypertension and so many other health issues. Cortisol helps balancing the sodium in one's body and has plenty of effects with inflammation, bloodsugar levels, the regulation of metabolism, even plays a big part on memory formulation. I decided to give Ashwagandha a try for the first time because I heard it was an awesome adaptogenic plant. I read everywhere that it played a big part in cortisol specifically and I thought, why not? I have nothing to lose. The very first day I literally only took 1 pill, not even the recommended dose because I have had issues with other supplements in the past. I felt absolutely AMAZING. I couldn't describe the feeling at first. I feel like as if the stress is still in my life but it just doesn't worry me like it used to. The second day I took 2 pills and the 3rd day I did 3 (the recommended dose) and let me tell you that these things are absolutely miracle workers. I feel overtime the effects are getting better. I thought, these worked too well, these can't be this good can they? I thought the placebo effect had gotten to me. I decided to give some to a family member and not tell him what it was. He called me 5 hours later and asked what I had given him. He said he hadn't been able to sleep in days and that he was in a bad mood. He told me that whatever I gave him completely regulated his mood. He asked me to get him a bottle ASAP. I love this product so much that I have been promoting it for you guys to EVERYONE I know. Thank you guys for this great product. This really can change one's life.

I have PCOS, anxiety and ADHD. I have always been nice but stress as a nurse is overwhelming. I was agitated all day. Quick to yell. Trouble losing weight. Losing hope. I researched and this herb kept coming up. I gave it a try.
This has changed my life. I could cry. I'm just so happy again. Excited to be alive. At peace. No aggression. I stopped needing a drink after work. Im not usually one to even leave a review. But I'll never willingly go back to the way things were before this supplement.
Nadine V.
I deal with anxiety and panic attacks and these past 4 months have been really difficult for me. My cousin recommended this to me and it has seriously been a God send. It's helped in a way that is beyond words. The fact that it is all organic is a huge plus. I can feel the difference when I take them. I over all feel more balanced. This is now a part of my daily regime.
Venus R.
It has made a measurable difference in my anxiety levels, and I feel so much more relaxed and clear headed. It doesn't make me feel like I'm on anything. I just feel happy and calm and like me.

I struggle with mood swings, anxiety and racing thoughts. After taking PC’s ashwaganda for a short time, I noticed a big difference in my anxiety and mood swings. When I ran out, I switched to a different type of Ashwaganda, simply because I was out and I grabbed the brand that was at the store. The blend I got was around 500mg of ashwaganda. With thay dosage, my anxiety came right back. So its was obvious to me then that I would need to stick with the maxiumum streng physicians choice! Anxiously awaiting my new bottle of PC ashwaganda to arrive!
Sara F.
I had trouble sleeping and a friend of mine suggested Ashwaganda. I ordered it and it worked like magic. I now sleep very well! Highly recommended!
Ivy V.
This product arrived ahead of schedule so I’ve been using it for about a week now and I must say I’m a big fan!! At 50 I need adrenal support and hormonal balance as I’m noticing the prelude to “the change”. I actually have cut down the recommended dose.....that’s how well my body has responded to this product! I’m super excited to see further results!!

I have tried this product and for me it has seemed to lengthen my fuse. I would snap at the slightest thing, but seem to be able to deal with things a little better. Even my wife noticed the difference .It is also supposed to be good for men who are older and their testosterone is low, as this product supposedly lowers your cortisol which in turn raises your own testosterone. I have not had my blood checked recently but my last test my testosterone was low. I have a feeling it may be working on that too as I have been feeling a bit more frisky. She noticed that as well I also seem to sleep a bit better. Saying all of this I caution everyone to use your heads. There are some things that work for some people but may have reverse affects on others or seem to do nothing. Some of these herbs have been used for a thousand years. I believe this herb, root powder came from India. Again use anything with caution. A little common sense can go a long way. A lot of people today want a magic bullet and instant results. The world does not always work that way. This is just my humble opinion from my experience.
Daisy B.
I was suffering from severe Social Anxiety. I could not be around people. After about a week and half of taking this Ashwagandha, I now can be in society! It has changed my life. I was so depressed. I am no longer depressed. My marriage has improved immensely! My husband has noticed a great difference in my mood and my the fact that we both can go out together now. I heard about Ashwagandha before, but I never thought it would change my life. Thank God I ordered this. I have bought it again so I don't run out and I will continue to buy this forever!
Gio S.
I am usually a very upbeat positive person but over the past few months I noticed a change in my mood. The situation seemed to get worse with the onset of the cold temperature. I had this "down" feelings which was a cause of great concern but was hesitant to discuss this with my doctor just to avoid another medication. I have been taking three capsules first thing in the morning and I can honestly say that after only two days of use I can feel the difference. I have been using this for only seventeen days now and there is a BIG difference in the way I am feeling now. I am very happy that I decided to try this product and will certainly continue to use it.
Patrick H.
I had low motivation and energy. After a few days of taking it I noticed an increase in drive and energy. Also helps me focus on tasks at work.
Lisa B.
Unheard of, till recently while watching a tv show. That’s the only reason it took so long, I had never heard of it! Tried it, loved it! Before this came along, I had severe fatigue, brain fog was as bad as a brick wall, and no gumption what-do-ever. Now o have hope . Little by little I’m feeling the old me come back around. I will continue with Ashwahganda for as long as I see/feel results.
Thank you for these rays of light...thank you!
Jamie G.
I tired this product looking for an OTC answer to help calm my stress and anxiety, since life has been going pretty crazy for the past several months. I take the recommended dosage (3 pills) at night just before bed. Within a week I noticed a significant difference. When I went to reorder it was out of stock, so I ended up trying a different brand of ashwagandha, expecting a similar result. I gave it about 3 weeks, but even after matching the dosage, I knew it wasn't working. I realize this probably sounds like a paid review, but it is not. I do want to know if there are other brands that work, just in case this one is no longer carried at some point
Yvonne E.
I love this stuff! It has been life changing for me! My anxiety, stress and depression was going through the roof. My cortisol levels were astronomical. I have tried to lose weight for so long and never could. As soon as I started taking this along with intermittent fasting the weight is just coming off a few lb a week on their own, I realized that my weight was due to cortisol fat. I started feeling the calm and peace come over after 3 days of taking these. I take stressful situations much calmer now. I can’t imagine my life without it anymore.
Jamie R.
My daughter suffers from severe anxiety and depression (along with PCOS). After much research we selected the organic ashwagandha root powder. We've noticed an increased calmness and also increased desire to be part of the family again. She is spending less time alone and enjoying her life more. It's honestly been a miracle for her. I'm excited to see her slowly coming back to life and feeling less anxious. I'm truly grateful
Tina W.
I have struggled with an anxiety and depression disorder since I was a small child. I have been on and off of anti-depressants my whole life. Wanting a more natural approach and after many weeks of research, I settled on Ashwagandha. I MADE THE RIGHT DECISION. Like many of the reviews said, it wasn't until day 3 that I could tell the difference but man what a difference. I am calmer, more focused, just more....at peace. I take it every single morning and the honest truth is....I look forward to taking it. I know it's going to make the day more tolerable. I know its going to help me over all the little speed bumps. It just honestly, truly works.

I was under an extreme amount of stress. Had been taking Busiprone prescribed by my doctor for anti-anxiety and stress relief. I am also over weight and had found out about ashwagandha from watching a YouTube video on how to lower cortisol levels naturally. It was truly incredible. I had some pretty bad road rage before. I would get mad and start yelling in the car if someone pulled out in front of me and was going slower than I was. Within a week of taking your product, I was driving home and someone pulled out in front of me going 25 in a 35 zone. Cars were zooming past me in the fast lane and the line of cars behind me were getting over to go around us as well. Before I would have hit the roof at that point. Yelling, flipping the person off and such. This time my first thought was "Oh well, I'll just wait for everyone else to go around, and then I'll go around.". That was the realization point for me. When I knew that your ashwagandha was working for me. Not just working, but out performing the Busiprone that was precribed by my doctor. The Busiprone is only for like anti-anxiety, depression, stress relief and it's a chemical thing. Your ashwagandha is anit-anxiety, stress relief, mood elevator, adrenal support, immune support and natural. Can't get much better than that.
A few months later.....It has worked so well for me at elevating my mood that now my mother (who was on Zoloft) is using it too. She is doing much better using this than the Zoloft.
