Can we consume Ashwagandha?
No, we do not recommend ashwagandha.
Firstly, it is not a food item but medicine. In Ayurveda, ashwagandha is used as a powerful medicine to treat specific ailments. However, it is one thing to consume something as medicine and entirely different to consume it as an everyday food item. It can be harmful to the body if taken frequently.
Additionally, it is extremely bitter in taste & falls under the Rajasik category. Also, it is not pleasing to the heart (an important quality of Satvic food).
Moreover, you do not need an additional supplement to detox or heal your body, if you are following the complete Satvic Lifestyle.
