ashwagandha

Hey guys, I made an account here specifically to get some help with this question. I wanted to take ashwagandha for anti anxiety purposes. I ended up taking ashwagandha and rhodiola for about 1 month. The thing is I was taking A LOT of them both. I took about 1.5 tablespoons of powdered...

What are your opinions on Ashwagandha? It possesses strong anti-cortisol effects, and it regulates thyroid function, the latter I find kind of scary, but perhaps for one-time doses it could be useful for its anti-cortisol effect. Is it safe? Thanks!
