Additional Information
Support :
In Ayurveda, Ashwagandha is generally considered Rasayana, a substance able to influence life forces towards a healthy balance and an integrated relationship with the environment. In the west it is known as an adaptogen which enhances the individual’s healthy reaction to challenges of a physical, chemical or biological nature. Studies have shown Ashwagandha may promote healthy sleep patterns (the name somnifera is Latin for ‘sleep-inducing’). Ashwagandha contains substances known as ‘withanolides’ and it is these bioactive constituents that provide the adaptogenic effects.

Buy productWhat is Betaine HCl?
648 mg Vegetarian Formula. NOW® Betaine HCl is formulated to support proper digestive conditions in the stomach. Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is normally produced in the stomach, where it assists protein digestion by activating pepsin, helps to maintain a healthy balance of gut flora, and stimulates the release of intestinal enzymes. Pepsin is a protease produced in the stomach that partially breaks down proteins in foods. HCl production tends to decline with age, so supplementing with HCl and pepsin may help to maintain normal digestive function. This product uses a vegetarian acid-stable protease with activity equivalent to that of animal-derived pepsin. Natural colour variation may occur in this product
