Ashwagandha
Ashwagandha is a plant traditionally used as an adaptogen that contributes to stress reduction and improvement of cognitive functions. The effects are based, among other things, on the modulation of the HPA axis and antioxidant effects. Studies suggest an anxiolytic effect that is partially mediated by GABA and NMDA receptors. The substance is considered safe when used properly with a low risk of side effects.
