Ashwagandha is an evergreen shrub that grows in Asia and Africa, but is primarily sourced in India now. It is commonly used for stress and boosting testosterone.
Ashwagandha contains chemicals that might helpwith calming the brain, reducing swelling, lowering blood pressure, and altering the immune system.
Since ashwagandha is traditionally used as an adaptogen, it is used for many conditions related to stress. Adaptogens are believed to help the body resist physical and mental stress. Some of the conditions it is widely used for include insomnia, aging, anxiety and many others, although there is not many studies proving this yet.

1. Put some herbs in the water. Once the water is to a boil, around 100° Celsius, you can add your herbs to the water. Which herbs you use depends on what effects and flavor you are looking for. Regardless of the herbs, you should use roughly one small teaspoon of tea for 200 ml of water.
2. Boil the herbs for 1-2 minutes. If you add the herbs to the water before boiling, you will create a condensed and bitter brew instead of tea.
3. Steep for another 5 minutes. Remove the kettle (or pot) from heat and let the mixture sit for five minutes.
