    I've been taking 500mg of Ashwagandha root first thing in the morning and again at night for the last 3 weeks as I was suffering severe anxiety and panic attacks, it seems to be working better than any prescribed medication I have ever tried, my anxiety is basically gone and I'm now not taking any other prescribed or over the counter medications to treat it. It has also increased my libido hugely.

    -----11--- I took ashwaganda for a long time, 3..4 days per week. I liked the effect on psychology and regulation of sex drive. However, and that's a big one: It caused inflammation of the liver, AST got as high as 40. When I took it off, all other things roughly the same, AST returned to 28 after 8 months. So, if you start taking it, observe your liver enzymes.

    How do you take it if you have hashimotos? Supposedly, if you have hashimotos you should take ashwaganda without food because it might raise your T1 if you take it with food. If the active ingredient in it is fat soluble, shouldn't you eat food with it? I feel like I am missing the benefits by having it only with water. What do you think? Should I try taking it with food even though I have hashimotos?

    Male here, it gives me tremors as well - and on top of that it would also give me palpilations also - almost every time I'd consume it (given I already have heart palpilations since childhood, however it happens rarely when not taking ashwagandha). Stopped taking it and afraid to try again as it is very uncomfortable feeling - anxienty inducing almost, but without the ability to calm down.

    I have chronic stress and anxiety meltdowns every other day. Taking ashwaganda has helped me to calm down, have better sleep quality, and become a nicer person generally.
    Taking 300mg/day now (3rd day), but I noticed my period suddenly came after on the 2nd day. I have PCOS and already have irregular periods.
    Should I stop or continue with the supplementation because I really like how I am now a better functioning human mentally.
    Thank you for this informative video, others were only touching the surface of what ashwaganda does based on scientific research and doesnt help much when I try to understand whats happening to me.

I have both issues but when taking uric acid preventing tablets then report coming normal, so I am not eligible to take both Ashwagandha and Shilajit. Your views please.

    Its not a about lead. Aswagandha has a ton of alcaloids so you cant say its all about lead. Dietary supplements containing ashwagandha have recently been implicated in the development of cholestatic and mixed liver injury in humans (Bjornsson et al., 2020; LiverTox, 2019a).
    And if you already have liver issues its can acute liver damage without few weeks. So beteter check out youtr ALT and AST levels to be sure that your liver is not sensible to this alcaloids
