Doctor's Best Ashwagandha with Sensoril, Ayurvedic Herb, Standardized Withania somnifera Extract, Clinically Proven to Support Mental Focus, Cardiovascular Health & Healthy Energy, 125mg, 60 Count

The increased absorption rate is working wonders for me. Before this I tried KSM 66 ashwagandha. I liked it but this is way more effective for me even as a great anti-inflammatory, something that I needed but wasn’t even thinking of when I got it. I have also taken Gaia ashwagandha off and on for years. I love that product also and felt it was great for my daughter. But I was looking for something stronger and more therapeutic for my thyroid, adrenals, anxiety, to lower cortisol, help balance aging hormones, and to support and balance out emotional ups and downs of perimenopause. I felt that due to my mid-40s status, something more potent was in order. I am very pleased. I feel the effects faster after taking it and I feel much more relaxed and at ease both mentally AND physically. I feel like I can actually now be the calm, stable, positive presence that all my meditation only yielded in spurts. ;-) I do take more than what’s listed but not by that much. I will be using this daily for like the rest of my life and if I forget I apologize in advance for reverting back to the rollercoaster. Haha! But really, try it. It’s reasonably priced for sure and do your own research but up to 4 at a time should definitely be safe and I hope very helpful for you.

I've been using ashwagandha for years, both the raw herb and extract, mostly for its sexual effects - combined with damiana, saw palmetto and red ginseng I find it enhances sensation and excitability. I have also noticed along the way that when I use it it elevates my mood, and promotes a calm energy as well. My brand of choice has been Planetary Herbals, a combination of the raw herb and an extract. It's a good product, but I heard the Sensoril was the best and gave it a shot. It's dramatically stronger, so much so that I would recommend using less than the recommended dose - start with one capsule until you know how sensitive you are to its effects. I read numerous reviews of another Sensoril product also sold on Amazon, and while most were very positive I noted some people experience migraine-like headaches with this. I felt something similar, with flushing, though not with the intensity of a migraine, when I tried taking 2 of these twice a day. I recognize the feeling - it's the body's reaction to excessive serotonin activity. If you are on antidepressants, St, Johns Wort or SAMe you may want to limit your intake of this supplement. I take St. John's Wort and SAMe, and I believe that accounts for my adverse effects. I reduced to a single cap twice a day, and find this dose provides the benefits without the negative effects.Another reason I switched to Sensoril - much ashwagandha, and other herbs imported from India and/or China, is contaminated with lead, mercury and other pollutants. I believe the method of extraction for Sensoril may eliminate some of these impurities.

This ashwagandha used to list the main ingredient before which name is SENSORILBut now it is not listed in the ingredients anymore

Ashwagandha is one of my favorites and Sensoril is the best proprietary Ashwagandha in my opinion. It has more concentrated withanolides allowing for a smaller capsule. I've tried other extracts and whole root formulas, but Sensoril tops them all. It definitely has a more noticeable calming effect. 2 capsules helps me relax and remain much more calm in stressful situations than I would otherwise. It also seems to help a bit with sleep if you take it at or before bed time. Other Ashwagandhas besides Sensoril just don't cut it!

This is a good supplement and it's a good value for the money.I had been purchasing the Natural Factors brand of Ashwaganda for my 86 year old father to help him sleep, but Amazon was having trouble getting it for me, so I switched to this brand and we've had no complaints so far.It has same effect, same active ingredients, and it's a bit cheaper. I have not tested this one personally, as I don't care for how it made me feel--it's too strong for me. I tried the exact same amount of the active ingredient in another product in the past.He combines it with the Natural factors brand sleep tablet. (see my other reviews)

The last several shipments I’ve received, I’ve noticed black material inside of the capsules. When I take those affected, they don’t work. I think it’s time to move to a different brand. That’s too bad, because these things work really well when I get good product.

I have dealt with severe stress and anxiety my entire life and have tried just about every medication and supplement out there. Ever since I started taking this supplement my life has done a complete 180. I used to go to work and have so much stress and anxiety that I wasn't able to do my job at a high level. Ever since I started taking this supplement my days have become almost effortless. Once I take this, my stress melts away and my mind becomes quiet. It gives me a calm energy and I'm able to focus and I no longer forget things. I have been taking this for over 3 years now and still love it. Incredibly grateful for this supplement! I don't do reviews, but I feel that strongly about this supplement. Thank you Doctor's Best!
