How long should ashwagandha be taken to judge the effect?

This is one of the most common questions about herbal supplements in general. Ashwagandha is not a fast-acting substance like caffeine, whose effect is felt within an hour. It is traditionally regarded as part of a regular diet over several weeks.

The effect of herbal products is judged by regular intake as part of a balanced lifestyle, not by a single capsule. This is important to bear in mind when planning: if you are taking a supplement for a period of high workload — a work deadline, exams, frequent travel — it makes sense to start in advance rather than in the middle of the stressful period.

The N90 pack is designed for a fairly long course, which is logical for a product that involves regular intake. The recommended dose on the label is 1 capsule a day for adults, taken with water; do not exceed the daily dose. It is better to discuss the duration of use with a doctor, especially if you are taking other supplements or medicines.

Ashwagandha is not suitable for pregnant and breastfeeding women; if you are sensitive to herbal components or have chronic conditions, consult a doctor before you start taking it (this is stated on the label). The label also states that the product may contain milk (including lactose), soy, peanuts, other nuts, sesame, gluten, eggs, crustaceans and fish.
