I use ashwaganda more for the cortisol effect. Sex wise, not noticeable unless you take it regularly for a certain amount of time. If you’re looking more for a noticeable boost in sex drive, use tongat ali, boost your zinc intake, tribulus is pretty good too. Other factors that definitely affect my drive is sleep, food and exercise. Correct those things first for best results.

I’ve been taking this twice daily for 2 and a half years. Recommended by my trainer. I’m 61 now and there’s no drop off in my energy and beyond!

This doctor is super smart, articulate, and knows how to break things down with a sense of humor and so that people understand it. Her patients are lucky, considering most doctors have a terrible bedside manner and don’t always explain things well

I take it when I’m frustrated at work, helps calms me within 20 min. So I love it. If there are other benefits, fantastic.

[MrOldclunker]

It works! I've tried it and amazing results.

[jeffwozniak]

Thank you for this timely vid. I've just started taking ashwaganda but I can't say I notice any difference. It could be I'm taking it at the wrong time of the day, based on this installment. Another astoundingly informative video. Rena Malik for president!

I always enjoy your lectures on health. The broad knowledge you possessed is impressive, and your physical beauty is a plus !

I take ashwaganda regularly and I love it. It really helps with stress and boosts libido. It also does lower emotions but mostly just negative ones.
I also recommend taking Shilajit, wich feels like ashwaganda on steriods and if you combine these to, you will sleep like a baby, have a huge increase in terms of libido and be way more calm.

As a British person I can never get used to the American pronunciation of "herb". Here in the UK we pronounce the "h" in that word.

[GoldenEraZen]

One of the reasons I love taking this herb. Helps with my cortisol levels and vitality 🙏

[djs]

I've been taken in for quite a while now and I tell you I love it❤❤

What I got from all of this is, it is better to focus on resistance exercise before looking at supplements as a preventative proactive measure.

[reinotsurugi]

I gave my wife a dose a few hours before our "date" and OMG just that one time and VRROOM! This herb works.

[appelliefieaudiobooks]

I started taking Ashwaganda a week ago and my libido is sky high! Very calming as well.

[MrFredlthomasiii]

You are wonderful Doc and maybe a psychic!!! I purchased 2100 mg ashwagandha over a month ago and haven't taken a single pill. I've purchased this to boost my testosterone levels and to relax dummy resting time. I've noticed that as I am aging (53) it harder and harder for me to workout and see positive results. I also work 12 - 14 hours per day 5 to 7 days a week. I'm a little nervous about trying this without consulting my Doctor, however I had lab work done where my testosterone levels are slightly lower than normal for my age group. I will be having my physical exam here real soon and I'll wait for her to say yeah or nay. This is a supplement unknown to and I don't want to be want to be foaming at the mouth and flopping on the ground if I don't need this. If my Doc says it's okay then I'll will give it a go and hope that my workouts and sleeping patterns improve. Thanks as always Doc for being a Awesome and Knowledgeable Professional!!!!❤ Enjoy the rest of your day Doc!!!!

I'm taking kava now days. I tried this herb few years back when on vacation in the Pacific. It works very well in removing stresses and relaxing the mind for me.

Emotional blunting!! That’s a perfect description for the fact that ashwagandha takes me from being an agitated, impatient driver that verbalizes my annoyances with others to an extremely relaxed, calm driver that doesn’t really care when or how I get to my destination. It definitely works as a mood changer. 1/2 of a 300mg capsule works fine for me. Though, 300mg can be mind numbing.
