Tribulus
& Ashwagandha (Tribulus terrestris), a plant
with burrs, and ashwagandha (Withania somnifera), a woody shrub, are
two Ayurvedic herbs with synergism. Our Tribulus & Ashwagandha
product contains tribulus fruit and seed (most
tribulus products only contain the seed) and ashwagandha root.
Tribulus is a common ingredient in sports nutrition and anti-aging
products, where it is counted on to help support healthy hormone
function. In India, tribulus has a traditional reputation as an urinary
tonic.
Ashwagandha is probably India’s most famous medicinal herb. Considered
an adaptogen, ashwagandha may help the body adapt to stress. In India,
Ashwagandha has a traditional reputation as Rasayana, or overall tonic.
Tribulus & Ashwagandha capsules contain 250 mg. of each herb.
Since ashwagandha may increase thyroid function, it should not be used
by those with hyperthyroid condition.
