10 Benefits of Ashwagandha
Ashwagandha Benefit #9: Increase Muscle Mass
Research suggests that Ashwagandha supplements significantly increase muscle mass and strength in men and may be beneficial for males who are practicing resistance training and weight bearing exercises. Ashwagandha has also been effective in treating the elderly who have lost muscle mass due to their age.
In one study on the safety and effectiveness of Ashwagandha for healthy men, 750-1250 mg per day resulted in increased muscle mass after 30 days. The difference in muscle mass was significant and more than doubled the reduction in body fat percentage compared to the placebo.
