What is Ashwagandha Extract 450 mg?

The root, which naturally contains withanolides, is primarily used in traditional applications. The NOW Foods extract combines the root and leaf of the plant to achieve a balanced ratio of plant-based active ingredients: the leaf extract provides a broader spectrum of withanolides, while the root extract is more concentrated.
