Frequently Asked Questions
Is it safe to take it every day?
Yes, studies show 300–600 mg/day of standardized root extract is generally safe for daily use, well‑tolerated over 8–12 weeks.
What’s the ideal dosage?
Most research uses 300–500 mg twice daily (i.e. 600–1,000 mg/day), typically standardised to 2.5–5% withanolides. Lower doses (~120 mg) may also offer benefits.
Can you take it with magnesium?
Yes, magnesium and ashwagandha can be a powerful duo for relaxation and sleep. Magnesium glycinate is known for its calming effects, which complement ashwagandha’s adaptogenic properties.
Will it help with weight loss?
Ashwagandha may support weight loss indirectly by reducing stress, improving metabolism, and enhancing digestion, though it's not a standalone weight-loss solution.
What is the best time to take it, morning or night?
Evening dosing tends to boost relaxation and sleep.
Morning dosing can aid energy, focus, and resilience throughout the day. Tailor timing to your goals.
Is it safe for kids or teens?
While traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine for various ages, research in children and adolescents is limited. Most sources advise consulting a healthcare professional before giving it to minors.
