What effect are you hoping to get from it?

It may have a minor effect on stress (though for others it does nothing), but unfortunately many Ashwagandha supplements do not have the dosages they say on the bottle. If you do end up trying it, stick with a reputable brand like Jarrow. Though I have had good luck with Nutricost with other supplements, and they're much more affordable.

Yups it does. I take it every few days because cycling makes sure it doesn’t get any addictive effects. It keep my mind a bit more relaxed / less anxious. I worry a bit less about stuff. For woman trying to get pregnant it is not advised to use because it could have an affect. If you have any questions let me know
