What is Ashwagandha?

Ashwagandha or Withania somnifera is an ayurvedic herb that has been used for centuries in India as an adaptogenic herbal remedy to improve overall health, vitality and longevity. It is a short shrub that grows naturally all around the Indian subcontinent; but is also native to the Middle East and North Africa. Ashwagandha is now also grown in North America and other temperate climates as its popularity increases. In western countries, Ashwagandha is also referred to as Winter Cherry.

The Ashwagandha plant itself is a hardy small woody shrub with small flowers and distinctive red seeds. The shrub can grow from 150 to 200 cm tall. The plant can thrive in moderate drought conditions and is often found where other plants cannot survive. Ashwagandha naturally occurs in all areas of South Asia up to a moderate altitude. It is a member of the same family of plants that includes the common tomato, the Solanacaeae family. The plant displays small flowers and small berry like fruit. The flowers have a central yellow section and light green petals that look like mini leaves. The Ashwagandha shrub has a dominant central stem supporting radially extending branches. The central stem and branches are covered with small wool like hairs.
It is actually the plant root and seeds that are used in ayurvedic medicine. The roots of Ashwagandha can occur as one long thick structure, similar in shape to an extra large carrot, or it can occur as a subsystem of various inter-twined roots. The leaves of the plant are not compound leaves (ie. they are simple leaves) and are generally about 8 to 12 cm in length. Ashwagandha seeds are small and have a berry like red appearance; they are generally less than 1 cm in diameter. The plant flowers all year round and the Ashwagandha flowers are small and usually a greenish yellow color. The word Aswhagandha in Sanskrit literally translates to 'smell of a horse'; probably owing to the fact that the ground root has a smell that is reminiscent of a horse.
