shwagandha Rasayana combines the nerve healing benefits of Ashwagandha in a sweet and rejuvenating jelly that nourishes the whole body. Ashwangandha, litteraly one with the smell of a horse, is held to impart the strength and vitality of a horse to those who take it. In addition, it has powerful nerve calming qualities that render it a great herbal tonic to Vata related disorders. This combination of empowering and calming qualities make it a preferred treatment for conditions where the body and mind are worn and wasted due to overwork or stress.

Ashwagandha is a sweet and heating herb that works primarily on the blood, muscles, marrow, reproductive tissues and nerves. By targeting these five fundamental tissues it has great effects upon the whole body. It is highly nourishing to the tissues of the body, and bears a slightly sedating effect due to its warm energy. In this way it relaxes as it revitalizes, making it prime for the treatment of stress and anxiety.

The benefits of Ashwagandha come together in this rasayana with a blend of twenty-five herbs into a powerful tonic for the nourishment of all bodily tissues. It promotes nutrition through healthy digestion, and supports the metabolism, longevity, and the immune system. This rasayana also includes ingredients which support many of the benefits of Ashwagandha. The seeds of marking nut and walnut encourage the metabolic processes of muscular tissue, encouraging the growth, strength, and healthy operation. Ingredients like indian long pepper, vanshalochana, cardomon, cinnamon, cassia leaf, and cobra's saffron alleviate fluid buildup such as phlegm and mucous and are particularly relieving for respiratory diseases such as tuberculosis. In addition, several other herbs and spices, such as saffron encourage the aphrodisiac properties of Ashwagandha, and help to balance hormones and the natural production of reproductive fluids.

This blend of herbs and spices is delivered in a sweet and nourishing medium of jaggery, or raw sugar. Jaggery here joins the forces with the blend of herbs to provide additional nourishment and comfort to the bodily tissues. It brings its moisturizing and cooling effects to the tissues of the body helping lubricate and comfort overworked joints, muscles, and nerves. This combination of effects is particularly helpful to the body and mind which are worn out by stress. Stress often causes dryness and depletion of the bodily tissues through its overactive and worrisome nature. This rasayana brings the nerve soothing benefits of Ashwagandha and other herbs in a sea of jaggery to give new energy and new life that is like a spring of water in the anxious desert of stress and depression.
