be careful if you have autoimmune issues- may not be for you
cautionary tale:
i studied the ingredients and was very concerned about the amount of ashwagandha per dose. despite the postive hype aound its calming and beneficial properties, it has the opposite effect on a percentage of users, esp those with auto immune disorders like myself. i called the manufacturer to obtain that information and was told it was proprietary and therefore a secret. in my desperation i took it anyway, starting at 2 capsules a day. it often made me nauseous,but i was determined take it for 6 months.
at 5 months i was down to 4 interrupted hours of sleep per night. last week i gave up and stopped taking it. 5 days later i'm sleeping normally.
did it work? ive seen no new hairgrowth. possibly it reduced hair loss and made my hair grow faster, but less expensive products can do that.
