Ashwagandha (Withania Somnifera) is one of the wonder herbs of Ayurveda. Ashwagandha is well known for its ability to increase vitality, energy, endurance, stamina and strengthen the body's own immune system. Ashwagandha nurtures the nervous system, decreases stress and promotes a calm state of mind.

Ashwagandha is especially functional in female and male reproductive system related disorders such as infertility and impotence. Last but not the least, Ashwagandha is helps restore loss of libido and is highly recommended as a general tonic to people over 30 years of age.

This is a very serious question. Would you recommend this herb to those who are using famous male sexual performance enhancement drugs?

Even though I personally do not have experience with male sexual performance enhancement drugs, I do not see how Ashwagandha cannot benefit some one who is already taking some other sort of such supplement.

Ashwagandha is used in nearly every type of ayurvedic herbal medicine that works on the sexual (reproductive) organs. It benefits both males and females equally. If you want to understand the literal meaning of how this herb orignated, all you need to know is "Ashwa" meaning horse and "Gandha" meaning smell. Ancient ayurvedic practitioners recognized the value of this herb and wrote (something to this effect): If there is one herb that can give one stamina like a horse (stallion), it is AshwaGandha.

Given the success of v*****, l****** and c*****, maybe, finally, I can become a billionaire selling Ashwagandha Cool. Ah, so, that's your secret plan, isn't it, shilajeet? Take over v*****, l****** and c***** market by promoting and selling Ashwagandha and conquer the world Cool!

Oh I wish it was as simple as that iRule. No, I dont believe that I can become rich by selling Ashwagandha. Margins in this business are not like the outrageous margins that are common in the pharma business (500% to 5000% is a good approximation of margin in drug business).

We barely survive given that we have no where the reach of the big boys however it is one of my personnel mission to spread the word about good ayurvedic products. Ashwagandha is just one of those products. Don't take my word for it, do your own research as well.

Who knows? Companies like Dell and Amazon sell products while they have razor thin margins, yet they are very profitable. You may or may not agree with their business practice in general, but as far as margins are concerned, they have proved that you can run a very profitable business while margins are razor thin Cool .

Right, except in a fragmented market where herbal products are not used as often (because of lack of knowledge, availability etc.,), it is rather hard.

Who knows? Michael Dell only had his dorm room when he started Dell. You might be the next Dell(if you'd become the next Dell, please remember this fellow ...; I don't mind receiving 100 mil charity or donation Cool ).
