I just started using Ashwaganda and it's been a life saver for me. I had serious anxiety and it helped me to calm down.

@conservativedeveloper7289 For now, I'm taking it daily until I start feeling better. Then I'll wean myself off and see how I feel.
Thanks for the concise video. Personally I have used Ashwagandha for years-everyday for a while, then cycled and then intuitively, as and when required. For Ashwagandha to be effective for me, it has to be a minimum of 5% Withanolides and I am not saying it has to be KSM-66, just a minimum of 5% active compounds-but if anybody wants to take a form of Ashwagandha that has a minimum of 'anhedonia' potential, it's KSM-66. I've had that, Sensoril and Shoden many times, but lately, for me it's Shoden and a basic Ashwagandha extract at 5% Withanolides that are my preferences. Anhedonia, or the 'flattening out' of the ability to feel pleasure in everyday activities, is for some people an often experienced side-effect of Ashwagandha, which from personal experience, I remedied by combining my usual dose with a low dose of Rhodiola rosea extract, (200mg, standardised to 3% rosavins/1% salidrosides), before eventually cycling both of them off. Thanks once again, for an objective analysis of this herb.
This product was also deemed to be effective in cancer treatment.
Thank you you’re a great doctor. That’s why I subscribed you. I love to hear how you explain things. Thank you very much.🥰❤️
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Much appreciated.
I get nightmares from ashwaganda and when I looked it up their is a Reddit thread on this. Very vivid wake you up with a feeling of doom dreams.

Same. It was really scary for me.
Thanks for this :) Could you do such breakdown too on astragalus??? I think this is a super plant that isnt known so much yet. It is often compared to Ashwaganda.
Thanks ❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤
Which version was used in the case of studying it for hypothyroidism? Is that also Sensoril?
for the cycling on/off instead of couple months on and 1 month off is taking it M-F with weekends off just as effective?
Since I have sensitivity to nightshade foods I am reluctant to try ashwagandha.
I wonder exactly how much I should take of Ashwaganda And exactly what kind for Addison’s disease
Can you take berberine if you smoke pot or use delta 8?
I had sciatic pain all week. I took this for the first time today and the pain went away. Is that a thing? It was an unexpected effect.
Vimergy tincture?
What about anhedonia
I think the old thumbnail works better

@@DrJinSungwell, for what it's worth, I love the content. Summarizing studies like this is great, especially from someone with clinical experience prescribing herbal medicine. Wikipedia is so useless for herbs because their policy doesn't allow primary sources (scholarly journals) for those articles. Sure, if you look up "withanolide" you'll get citations to the research articles, but who's going to do that? People will just look up "ashwagandha" on Wikipedia and get nothing. So it's good to provide summaries to laypeople of the research.
Sensoril it’s the best
