How to improve memory and concentration?

Ashwagandha, also known as winter cherry or Indian ginseng due to its rejuvenating properties, is one of the most important Indian herbs and has always been highly valued in Ayurvedic medicine for its stimulating effect on our well-being.

Ayurveda works on the principle – Prevention is better than cure. The healing power of ashwagandha comes from the amount of antioxidants it contains. The most powerful antioxidants in it are polyphenols, which protect the human body from the free radicals, therefore help slow down body’s aging process, the death of brain cells and fight toxins in the body. Flavonoids, which are the largest group of polyphenols, can directly scavenge free radicals and protect vitamin C from oxidation.

Ashwagandha is an adaptogen, which means that it alters the body’s response to stress and has the ability to restore hormonal balance. It also contributes to skin health and has a beneficial effect on the heart and blood vessels.

Ashwagandha root (Withania somnifera) or the miracle plant from the Himalayas, helps relax and protects against stress. It allows a peaceful sleep in the evening, invigorates and strengthens us in the morning. Ashwagandha grows in the Middle East, India, China and parts of Africa. It needs a warm but not too humid climate to grow. It is a low woody shrub from the family Solanaceae, which grows up to 75 cm. The shrub blooms with yellow-green bell-shaped flowers, and in autumn orange-red fruits appear on it. The fruits are not used for medicinal purposes.

Health benefits

Ashwagandha’s brown root, which is used as ground powder, has positive health effects. Young and small roots are harvested and properly dried, which affects the content of medicinal substances in the ground powder. Leaves are also used. The taste of ashwagandha is herbal, bitter and sharp, so we enjoy ashwagandha in capsules, or add it to sweeter smoothies.

Ashwagandha does not have many vitamins and minerals, but it is still considered the queen of Ayurvedic medicine. The reason for this are the withanolides, which are not easy to find in nature. They are found mainly in plants of the genus Solanaceae. Ashwagandha roots contain 0.2% withanolides, which means about 22 mg of the substance in one root. The more mature the plant, the higher is the content of withanolides.

Improve your memory and concentration with Ashwagandha

Ashwagandha contains about 80 different active substances, including alkaloids, steroidal lactones, saponins and iron. Ashwagandha has beneficial effects in aging-associated diseases and diseases associated with a weakened immune system. Being an adaptogenic plant, it protects the body from negative environmental factors such as stress, weather fluctuations, cold and heat, microorganisms, etc.

Adaptogens regulate the secretion of hormones, thus bring back balance to the body. In Ayurvedic medicine, are also used to strengthen the general health of the body and prolong life. Ashwagandha contributes to emotional stability and improves memory and concentration.

Ashwagandha increases the amount of red and white blood cells, therefore significantly improves the body’s immune system. Ashwagandha has a similar antioxidant action as milk thistle, which is used to maintain liver health. Ashwagandha as an adaptogen allows the body to cope better with chronic stress. Rose root, Siberian ginseng, schisandra and maca have a similar effect. Taking ashwagandha is a good alternative to hormonal treatment and helps with age-related degenerative diseases, such as dementia and arthritis, which are often caused by the free radicals. Ashwagandha contains withanolides, which have an antioxidant action and hunt the free radicals. Due to its anti-inflammatory properties, it successfully stops the progression of chronic inflammatory diseases, such as arthritis (joint inflammation).

When taking ashwagandha, make sure to have a break every 4 to 8 weeks. This is especially important to avoid thyroid problems, because taking it for too long may cause a sharp rise in the secretion of thyroid hormones (hyperthyroidism).
