How we verify

The brand submits the formula. We read the supplement facts panel and weigh dose, form and synergy against the clinical evidence. Labs test. IngredientMD verifies. The fee pays for review time, never for the outcome.

  • Ashwagandha Root Extractabout eight to nine weeks of daily useBuilds with daily use

    In a 60 day randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, 60 stressed healthy adults took 240 mg of a standardised ashwagandha extract (Shoden) once daily or placebo. The ashwagandha arm showed a larger fall in Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale scores (p = .040) and in morning cortisol (p < .001) than placebo, with the DASS-21 change near-significant (p = .096). A separate 8 week randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled dose-ranging trial enrolled 131 adults with self-reported high stress and analysed 98, measuring reduced Perceived Stress Scale scores at 125, 250 and 500 mg per day of an aqueous root and leaf extract. Two trials on two different extracts, both landing in the same eight to nine week band.

  • Standardised root extract

    An extract of the root alone, standardised to its withanolide content, the constituent family the clinical literature doses by. Root-only sourcing distinguishes it from root-plus-leaf extracts.

    Fits
    Formulas that want the dosing and safety record of the studied preparations, since most trials used standardised root-only extracts at 125 to 600 mg a day.
    Trade-off
    Standardisation states withanolide content, not which withanolides. Extracts differ in their glycoside profile even at the same declared percentage.

    A systematic review of 23 randomised trials in 2,317 generally healthy adults taking standardised ashwagandha root extract at 125 to 600 mg per day, from a single dose to 180 days, found hepatic, renal, haematological, endocrine and cardiovascular biomarkers stayed within normal clinical ranges, reductions in cortisol were consistently observed, testosterone shifts stayed within physiological range, and no serious adverse events were attributed to the extract.
