Origin & Lore
Withania somnifera is a small shrub of the nightshade family found across India, the Middle East and Africa. Its root has been traditionally used in Ayurveda for thousands of years as a rasayana, a restorative tonic.
Ashwagandha’s Sanskrit name means “smell of horse”, for the earthy scent of the root and the old idea that it gives the strength of one.
Ashwagandha appears in the classical Ayurvedic texts, the Charaka Samhita among them, and remains one of the best-known plants of Indian herbal tradition.

The species name somnifera is Latin for “sleep-bringing”.
