Ashwagandha is called the ""smell of a horse"" since it can enhance one’s vigour and strength, and it comes from The Winter Cherry Tree, which grows in Western India and the Himalayan region. The leaves and roots are crushed to make the tonic—which you can take as a tablet, tea, or extract—and since it's an adaptogen, it's best to take a little bit over a consistent period of time. Adaptogens are very safe to use, and they work by adapting to whatever your body needs, whether that be increased energy, reduced stress, or improved skin. Ashwagandha tastes a bit bitter, but that can actually be great for the digestive system since they activate bile in our liver.
