Ashwagandha, also known as Withania somnifera, is an adaptogen. Adaptogens support the body’s ability to adapt from stress while also supporting overall feelings of balance and vitality. Much like ginseng in traditional uses, an ashwagandha supplement is used to support virility and vitality. Some well known ashwagandha benefits are the potential to help support balanced inflammation levels and promote focus. Other ashwagandha uses include taking ashwagandha for sleep and as well as other ashwagandha health benefits.
Shoden® is a clinically-tested, purified extract of Ashwagandha made from carefully selected roots and leaves. With an industry leading 35% Withanolide Glycosides (measured by HPLC), Shoden® Ashwagandha offers high bioavailability and shows bioactivity even at low doses. This means that Shoden® Ashwagandha carries by far the highest composition compared to any other extracts in the market. Not only does Shoden® Ashwagandha contain a full spectrum of Withanolide Glycosides, it carries high levels of 8 key Withanolide Glycosides and high levels of Withanoside X, a bioactive glycowithanolide. Thus, all these elements make Shoden® a potent ashwagandha supplement for those wanting a wide range of ashwagandha benefits.
By now you may have tried a few different ashwagandha extracts. Some well known ashwagandha extracts are KSM-66 and Sensoril.

Ashwagandha is new to me. I've only been on it for about 6 months. I found that taking it at night works the best for me. I'm in a better mood in the morning. I was going through a lot of health issues in the last year and became very down. Since I've been on this, I have a more positive outlook on my health concerns. I also feel more balanced and have less stress at work. I have tried one other brand but like these better.
Hey everybody, I just wanted to let the world know I have found my favorite form of ashwagandha. I have been supplementing ashwaganda for about 3-4 years now. And actually missing very few days. I've never had any anhedonia or other issues related that I've read about in different places. In regards to any of the four forms of ashwagandha I've purchased through the years at ND. Of course I would be remiss not to mention everyone's body chemistry is quite different. It's really hard to explain why it's my favorite, other than it seems to give me the most relief from my upon waking fight or flight issues I experience, if you will. It's not a daily thing, it's just that feeling of dread to take on another day when I wake up 3 out of 5 ish work mornings. Simply, or is it, worrying about a new day and not staying in the present. Shoden, after a few minutes of taking it, makes my heart rate slow to normal, and abolishes the racing thoughts. And this is better than, again, any other form of ashwagandha I've supplemented through ND, and other manufacturers as well. And there have been a bunch thru the years. And for what it's worth, I only take one pill or capsule a day And it's always cool to know you're getting a solid boost of testosterone as a gentleman (with gentleman always being up for debate ;}). So kudos to my favorite nootropics company. From top to bottom and in between. And with each order, now going on some years, I'm never ceased to be amazed by how efficient this company is run. No nootropics or supplement company in the world I'm aware of, is in the same universe as Nootropics Depot. Thanks guys as always. AND, 5 BIG STARS

This, along with just a couple other changed habits seems to be helping my sleep schedule and my tolerance to stress
I finally decided to break away from my KSM-66 which was fine and did the job. However I will have to say that Shoden Ashwagandha takes the awesome feeling that ashwagandha gives me, and takes it to about 3 more levels in an ascending kind of way. I have tried all five ashwagandas I believe you all carry and this one now carries the load for me in the mornings particularly. I typically awake with a little morning cortisol Spike,; some days are worse than others of course. And since purchasing Shoden, it completely annihilates close to 100% as possible that anxious feeling you get from A.M. cortisol, and anxiety which to me is just too much adrenaline flowing through your body because you've got thoughts going through your head that are usually it's not always unrealistic. And never occur. Thank you my favorite nootropics company for continuing to provide cutting edge products that are so well tested that you know you're getting something that's clean with no BS ... and I salute each and every one who do their part or Job in making Nootropics Depot the best in the world in my opinion for nootropics and other things like herbs and basic supplements if you will
Seems to be doing the job it is supposed to do
This stuff is great for everything!
This helps me relax quite a bit more than the KSM-66. My friend who tried it however said it gave him a calm energy with focus. So you never know quite what you’ll get, but either way it’s a great supplement. I like how easily it absorbs even with food.
This is a late review. I bought this last year and had some pretty bad side effects. Horrible headaches, feeling spaced out and anxious etc.
Works fast -- takes sleep quality to the next level. Wake up refreshed and sharp!
This product has been a game changer for me
Compared to ksm66, I prefer the latter
I have tried many aswaganda products but this one for sure is cream of the crop. I can feel the differance after first week. I will continue to take this Shoden Ashwaganda its a keeper. I give it 5 stars and 2 thumbs up.
My wife and I began taking these a couple of months ago. She owns multiple businesses and this has been a godsend for her stressful life. Overall calmness that doesn’t affect her energy levels. I let her know I was leaving a review and she told me to give it 15 stars but only 5 are available. Great product!!
I work as a server at a very high volume restaurant. I’ve finally found a stack that works well for my energy and extreme stress, and this Ashwagandha is at the top of the list. I’ve been using this alongside Magtein, Noopept and a reputable B-Complex vitamin. It’s the perfect combination of energy, focus and clarity, and stress reduction. I HIGHLY recommend this product. Amazing customer service and fast shipping. I can always count on ND. I’ve never been let down in my years of ordering.
Product helps with stress and anxiousness. The customer service was excellent. I'd definitely buy again...
Helps tremendously with ability to handle stress
