Ashwagandha extract is
a concentrate of the roots and sometimes leaves of the plant Witnania
somnifera, also known as "Indian ginseng" or "winter
cherry".
Ashwagandha is
actively used in Ayurvedic medicine due to its adaptogenic properties, which
help the body adapt to stress.
The main active
ingredients are:
• Withanolides -
steroidal lactones, which give ashwagandha its main beneficial properties
(antioxidant, anti-inflammatory).
• Alkaloids with
physiological effects that regulate the level of cortisol, a stress hormone
that has a positive effect on the mental state, help calm the nervous system,
reduce stress and anxiety. Ashwagandha helps improve sleep, the extract has a
calming effect and promotes deep sleep, especially in chronic insomnia.
• Saponins support
immunity. Thanks to antioxidants, ashwagandha strengthens the body's defenses
and reduces the risk of infections.
• Iron, calcium and
other minerals help maintain the overall tone of the body.
Withanolides - are a
group of steroid lactones, which are the key biologically active components of
ashwagandha (Withania somnifera). These compounds provide most of the medicinal
properties of this plant. Withanolides have a complex structure consisting of
cyclic lactones and a steroid nucleus.
The most important of
them are withanolide A, withanolide D and withanone.
Biological activity of
withanolides
1. Antioxidant action:
they help neutralize free radicals, protecting cells from oxidative stress.
2. Anti-inflammatory
properties: withanolides block the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines,
which reduces inflammation in chronic and acute diseases.
3. Adaptogenic action:
They reduce the physiological effects of stress, helping the body adapt to
changing environmental conditions.
4. Antimicrobial and
antibacterial properties: Studies show that withanolides have activity against
various pathogens, including bacteria and fungi.
5. Neuroprotective
action: Withanolides help protect nerve cells and reduce the risk of
neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease.
6. Anti-stress action:
Withanolides reduce cortisol levels, which has a positive effect on the
psycho-emotional state.
Ashwagandha extracts
with a high content of withanolides are used in Ayurvedic medicine to treat
stress, anxiety, insomnia, inflammation and improve overall well-being.
Studies have shown
that standardized extracts of ashwagandha with a concentration of 5-10%
withanolides are the most effective in clinical use. For example, in randomized
studies, taking ashwagandha with a high content of withanolides led to a
decrease in stress levels and an improvement in quality of life in 60-70% of
participants.
Ashwagandha extract
also supports energy levels, reduces fatigue, and promotes muscle recovery
after physical exertion. Ashwagandha has a positive effect on the thyroid gland
and normalizes the level of sex hormones. Taking ashwagandha helps improve cognitive
functions: concentration, improving memory and protecting the brain from aging.
Anti-inflammatory properties are useful for the treatment of arthritis and
other inflammatory conditions. Ashwagandha regulates blood sugar levels and
supports healthy glucose metabolism.
