NutriRise Organic Ashwagandha Root Capsules with Black Pepper, 1300mg, Natural Stress & Mood, Thyroid & Immune Support Supplement, Clarity, Focus & Energy, Gluten Free, 60 Count

I ordered this for perimenopause mood swings. I was an absolute mess! I was uninterested and unmotivated in everything, short with my family, crying over everything, angry about everything. It was horrible. I was desperately looking for something that would help without going to my doctor and getting put on a prescription. I'm sure that is coming, but for now, I just needed something that helped. I have been taking this for two weeks. I can say that from THE FIRST capsules I noticed a HUGE change. It was unbelievable. I love to laugh and I hadn't laughed or been able to have a normal conversation with my family in a very long time. I was always nitpicking, scowling, and annoyed by long stupid stories. This brought ME back! I was able to focus on stories, wanting to be around my family, able to share my own stories. I wasn't drowning in irritation and frustrated by people just being people (my husband chewing yogurt, my daughter's acrylic nails tapping against her phone as she texts a million miles a minute). Aside from this balancing out mood swings, this also really did give consistent energy, alertness, and focus. I had been noticing that I had been having a hard time driving in traffic at high speeds with people darting in and out, which was a new issue. I was anxious and felt like my response time had diminished. I don't feel like that at all now. I feel like a normal confident driver. I'm not worried or scared. The energy is consistent, not like caffeine which is great for a few hours. This is all day. I'm alert and focused all day. There is no crash in the afternoon and there is no jittery over caffeinated feel. The bottle also says it helps with sleep and relaxation. I have always been a great sleeper. I haven't noticed a difference there, but I wasn't having an issue before. I did tell my doctor I was taking this and that I really loved it. She instantly went "oh yeah, Ashwagandha, that is fantastic for anxiety". I had no idea. Some of my previous symptoms could probably be lumped into that anxiety bucket. I didn't go out and get this for that, but it's helping all the same! I've told everyone about this supplement. I love it! Get it!

Been buying these for a long time. Love the he quality. I definitely notice a feeling of relaxation with taking this Ashwaganda. it’s great because it includes black pepper for better absorption. Has no taste. Good price. I’ve had zero side effects and some pretty noticeable benefits. I do feel a subtle shift—less racing thoughts, better focus, and I wasn’t as irritable in high-stress situations (I volunteer at my son’s school, so that’s saying something). By week three, it became clear this wasn’t placebo. I was more patient, more clear-headed, and even my sleep improved. I was not paid for this review, nor did I receive any free product. This is just my honest experience. I’ve tried other supplements before with little success, but this one will likely stay in my routine. I plan to cycle off after 4-6 weeks, as others have suggested, just to give my body a break. Tip: Always check with your doctor, especially if you’re taking meds or have underlying conditions. That said, if you’re considering trying this, I’d say it’s worth a shot. Good for people with Hashimoto's or peri-menopause. Hope this honest review helps.

I’ve tested this product now for about 45 days. Out of concern that the recommended dosage might be too much to take in one day, I ONLY TOOK ONE PILL IN THE MORNING. Here’s my results and opinion. I am not paid for this review nor given any bottles. This is a straight up...”I’ll give it a try” based review. I’m a male in my late 40s. Lower anxiety, better sleep and offset to declining testosterone were my main desired outcomes. 1). Yes, it does improve anxiety and sleep. Found myself sleeping through even on nights where the next day at work was going to be high stress. Noted change. 2). May be associated with diet change but seeing cortisol levels decrease with this, I was curious if it would reduce midsection. I joined Weight Watchers around the same time and have lost 18 pounds in 6 weeks. So...chicken and the egg here?? 3). Definitely without question increases libido and “performance”. Won’t be needing any other help in that dept if you know what I mean. 4). Did not increase testosterone for me. Blood test from 2 years ago was 407. Blood test last week was 397. 5). No noticeable impact on blood pressure. Took BP randomly over the last 6 weeks. Same as always. 6). No jitters, side effects or concerns. 7). Big pills. When i first took them they almost got stuck in throat. Way to do it is, put them in mouth and get be capsules really wet with the water first as you take a mouthful. Then swallow. 8) good value for good sleep and lower anxiety. Not a placebo. There’s stuff I have to deal with that no placebo could overcome. Going to increase dosage now from 1 pill to 2. Will update later

Right off the bat I'm going to say this. I absolutely love this product. I've been taking supplements for the past couple of years. Nothing major just stuff for energy here and there but for the most part I didn't take anything everyday. two years ago that has been a major life change for me. I won't get into the details but it could have been a quite depressing time for me. But I chose to be proactive in my Approach towards a better me. so I started taking my supplementation seriously. The first thing I looked into was taking care of my mental health and started taking 5-HTP, magnesium for bedtime, Coq10. that seemed to be my base “stack” for the first few months. I don't remember how I came across genius products. but I tried both genius joy and genius consciousness and they seem to do pretty good for me for a while. and what I mean by pretty good is there was a little bit of a mood Improvement and while I was going through high stressful situations I seem to be more calm. however I still wasn't feeling 100% myself. but I started to learn a little bit about intermittent fasting I started taking L-Carnitine because it supplied me with some energy and also acted as an appetite suppressant without any After Effects. effects of the L-Carnitine were fantastic! I reduce my food intake to A light meal and one big meal a day and I noticed immediately that I started thinking clearer. But I continued to look for more Supplements to get me to what I felt was a better me. 4 months ago I started taking L-Arginine along with the l carnitine and notice and marked difference in the way that my body looked. I looked more toned and defined after about a month of taking the L arginine. so now my “ supplement stack” was getting pretty hefty and also quite expensive. Now that I was getting good results from the body I went back to you looking into supplements for “nuero stacking”. I started with lion's mane and that was okay and I know that those take a while to take effect. After 2 months of taking the lion's mane I felt a little bit of a different and I'm still taking them currently. BUT The supplement oh, that had the biggest effect on me and my mood, hands-down, was ashwagandha! for me personally I felt the effects day one. which worried me a little bit because I did not want the product to just hit me and then phase off for me like other supplements have. I take one pill in the morning and 1 pill in the afternoon, and I must say that I feel utterly fantastic. I don't know if it's a combination of all the other stuff I'm taking at the same time but nothing has made the impact as ashwagandha. I've heard some great things about it and I'm here to tell you that for me at least this is work fantastic and I have been recommending it to my family who suffer from anxiety and other stress disorders. Ashwagandha was a game changer!

I’ve been using NutriRise Organic Ashwagandha for a while now, and it’s one of the few supplements I never want to run out of. When stress hits hard—whether it’s work, home, or just the world being too much—it often shows up as this tight, overwhelming pressure in my chest, like a beast has its claws around me and won’t let go. That’s when I reach for this. I take one capsule along with two L-theanine, and within a short time, that gripping tension starts to release. The beast backs off. My breathing evens out. And I feel like myself again—steady, clear, and calm without feeling drugged or foggy. The product quality has been excellent—we’ve never had a broken capsule, and every bottle shows up right on time through our Amazon subscription (usually every 3–4 months depending on how often my husband and I use it). I also appreciate that it’s organic, gluten-free, and easy on the stomach. ⭐ Pros: Genuinely eases intense stress and chest tightness Organic, gluten-free, and gentle Works well paired with L-theanine Never had a damaged capsule Reliable and consistent subscription delivery ❌ Minor Con: None so far—except that it can feel like a small miracle on tough days, so we go through it quickly! Final thoughts: If your anxiety ever feels like a beast sitting on your chest, this is the calm you’ve been looking for in a bottle. It doesn’t erase your life—but it gives you enough breathing room to live it again.

I had read a few articles about the benefits of this stuff and although I was still a bit skeptical, I figured I would try it. Especially since it isn't very expensive and I'm always willing to at least try stuff before I form an opinion. I have been using it for roughly two months, taking just two pills each morning and by Zeus's beard it works! They don't make me feel super energetic or anything like that, but I do feel an overall improvement in my mood; almost like I'm just one or two steps higher than I normally would feel. It definitely seems to help with stress as I just have a more general carefree feeling about me almost like a natural attitude of "hey, no sweat". Because of this stress relief, it helps me feel better all-around and I just feel happier and do have a bit more energy. I feel like I have been much more productive while I have been taking them, I think its because I just don't get stressed out about issues that normally would drive me crazy. As an added bonus, it definitely has helped in the bedroom too. Stress has affected me in that area in the past, but usually when I'm feeling particularly stressed out about something like work or other life stuff. Since these pills have seemed to help relieve that stress, I don't have any problems in that department and in fact things have actually improved! All that being said, I am pleasantly surprised with the results and I will definitely be buying these again when I run out. I can't say that everyone will have the same results, but I'd recommend at least giving them a try for a couple of weeks and see how it goes. And follow the directions; I usually drink at least 6oz of water with them in the morning and eat breakfast like 20 minutes after that when I get to work.

Good

Im one to never write a review. Ive been on and off lexapro for 6 years now, only to take myself off due to the side effects. Dont get me wrong lexapro worked wonders for me once it kicked in and after that first month of misery. Once you stop taking it tho, your symptoms come back like before and worse! its a never ending cycle of ADDICTION! Todays only my 7th day of taking this supplement and today i can tell you i haven't felt this Calm and collective in a while! I have talked with more stranger today than i have the past 2 months. I had pretty bad social anxiety to the point where i was in fight or flight mode "Covid didnt help" and would avoid a social situation. Im more assertive and racing thoughts of how i thought people think of me weren't there today! I don't feel the need to have a drink for a social situation since thats the only thing that would calm me down. First time taking this supplement my body did have a weird reaction, similar to taking an anti depressant my heart was racing and felt very warm with heightened anxiety, But i think thats because its a totally new substance entering our bodys and needs to adjust for it. If you feel any effects the first few days, take it at night and ride through it! give it some time to work/accumulate so your body can adjust dont give up! Funny situations that i would normal shrug at i would actually give a LOL. When i talk to people i can look them in the eye without feeling weird. Im more focused on whats going on around me in the moment than focusing on the anxiety i am feeling. My goofy happy self showed itself for the first time in over a year. i actually wanted to do things outside the house and any big gatherings of people i didnt fear anymore. I rode by a local lake and normally i would of just wanted to go home and just watch TV but i stopped and talked to the fisherman to see if he caught anything and how he was doing! As i write this my brother is packing the truck with fishing rods, I just had to write a review because todays the first day i finally lived OUTSIDE MY SHELL. Im currently taking 1 tablet for now mid afternoon around 12-1 after lunch. i have been taking magnesium for over a month Complex B vitamins, Fish oil and eat pickles daily for gut health that is considered 80% correlation to your mental health. But once i added Ashwagandah a week ago Im mind blown how good this product is working and how much better i feel. I feel like my old self and i hope this continues to work.
