Classics of Ayurved have designated Ashvagandha as an adaptogenic, strength enhancer and Sapta Dhatu Poshak. Its usage in health conditions involving tissue inflammation and degenerative disorders has also been proclaimed. Ashvagandha contributes in strengthening and improving functions of the musculoskeletal system by reducing local inflammation and pain in joints. In chronic debilitating disorders Ashvagandha nourishes the weakened body. Moreover, in stressful conditions of modern-day life, healthy individuals may supplement their diet with Ashvagandha to maintain their overall health.
