Divine Bounty Organic Ashwagandha Capsules - 1200mg Ashwagandha Powder with Black Pepper for Enhanced Absorption - Ashwaganda Supplement for Calmness & Mood Support - 90 Veggie Capsules

I wanted to visit my friends during a day gathering at the beach, but I work nights so I knew that I was going to be exhausted during the day and I was worried that I was going to have anxiety or headaches from staying up too late. I had some of this ashwagandha in my cupboard, and from what I remembered reading about it, it was probably the best thing to take to help me in this situation, so I took one capsule.My outing during the day turned out to be very enjoyable with no problems. No headaches. No anxiety - just great conversations and good times.I didn't have time to sleep before having to go to work again, and while at work there was a feud that I was in charge of handling. I managed to keep my head on straight and approach the situation calmly and effectively despite having been awake for a really long time.I had forgotten that I had taken the ashwagandha the day before, and I was curious about how I managed to stay calm and alert. Normally I would have been way too tired. Then something reminded me that I had taken the capsule, and it made perfect sense. It certainly made a huge difference in the outcome of my day at the beach and throughout my time at work afterward.I continued taking it hoping to prevent any kind of jet lag as I recovered from my lack of sleep during my busy schedule, and one more thing worth noting is that when I finally did get a full session of sleep I remember having the most amazing dreams. I felt like I was in a very enchanted place with a very rich emotional feeling. When I woke up from the dream I felt very peaceful and euphoric. It was the most amazing sleep I’ve had in years. The only thing I can attribute it to is this ashwaganda product and the kale salad that I had for dinner, but I’m certain it was the ashwaganda.I’m glad I made the impulse buy when I saw this product in Amazon’s suggestions. I’m very happy with this brand, and I plan to continue daily use.

I was skeptical that this would do anything given many other natural supplements I’ve tried without good results. This has proven to be the real deal for me. Here is what I’ve noticed:1. It takes about a week to 10 days to start working fully. I noticed some positive effects immediately but it seems to “settle-in” after a little time.2. Take it with food. It upset my stomach a little without food or at least lots of water.3. Started sleeping really well. Having real-like dreams that I remember. I get the sense of having been asleep and rested and not just passing out and then an annoying alarm waking me up like with a sleeping pill.4. The anti-anxiety effect took about two weeks to start to help me but its noticeable and real. Feel more relaxed and calm but not dragging or sleepy.5. Nice energy boost but not overly hyped up. Just better energy during the day. Especially after taking it in the morning.6. I take one 600mg capsul in the morning with some yogurt or breakfast and then a second one with dinner in the evening.7. I forgot to take my Ashwag (as I call it, lol) one evening with dinner. Had a restless night of infrequent sleep. I tty not to forget it now.8. Noticed some better muscle tone lately. I work out but this seemed to improve my muscle recovery and tone. Maybe its just in my head but it feels and looks like it to me. I’ll take it, haha. Its sure better than diarrhea or aome other side effect any day.Thats all. I’m not being asked to write this or compensated for it in any way. No, I’m not employed by them and I don’t sell this stuff. I bought it on Amazon and must be bored tonight but a happy Ashwag user. I hope this review helps someone.

It's good.

Really helps my adrenals - what I mean by this is that if I am not taking Ashwagandha, unless I sleep 9 or 10 hours - I feel tired. I ordered BRI Nutrition Ashwagandha in April and I have to say they both work amazingly well. I have always struggled with sleep and feeling rested - insomnia has haunted me since my late 20's and I will say that I still take a RX sleeping pill but that is all I take that is not natural. Otherwise I use herbs and vitamins to supplement my health. When I started on Ashwagandha back in April, I noticed that even if I only slept 6 or 7 hours (not enough sleep for me) I felt okay - not great but OK. Normally on that amount of sleep? My stomach would be upset, I would have a headache, sore throat and my body would ache like I had been hit by a mack truck (I know..I know...sleep is SO crucial for me....I do NOT understand anyone who can get by on less than 7 hours and feel good). Anyway, I'm not saying that Ashwagandha is the antidote for your adrenals but I AM saying it really helps. I personally think this brand is helping me a lot and quickly because I started it on 8/1/17 (thanks to Amazon's history of my orders I know this!!) and it's not 8/26/17 and I DO feel much more balanced and much LESS run down. Just an added note? My stress level was about a 8 or 9 on a scale of 1 to 10 back in May (Dad died, Mom has mild dementia, I am in grad school, broke up with my boyfriend and had to move from TX to Vegas in July!) and now? It's I'd say a 3 or 4 - I tend to run hyper so really that 3 or 4 is great for me! I also want to add that I take tumeric (amazing health benefits) DIM (for hormones (I'm 48), Vit. D, Thyroid support and folic acid - feel free to ask me about these as well - am like a walking arsenal of health products :-)

These helped with my mood, but I got super intense heartburn. Like, wasn't sure if I was having a heart attack heartburn. Taking with food from now on.
