What Is Ashwagandha?


Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is a plant traditionally used in Ayurvedic practice and widely recognised as a botanical food ingredient.

Today, ashwagandha is commonly included in food supplements throughout Europe and is available in a variety of formats, including capsules, tablets and gummies.

As a food supplement ingredient, ashwagandha does not currently have authorised health claims approved by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). Any authorised health claims mentioned in this article relate only to vitamin B6 where present.
