Shoden® Ashwagandha Extract Powder

What is Shoden® Ashwagandha?

Ashwagandha, also known as Withania somnifera, is an adaptogen. Adaptogens support the body’s ability to adapt from stress while also supporting overall feelings of balance and vitality. Much like ginseng in traditional uses, an ashwagandha supplement is used to support virility and vitality. Some well known ashwagandha benefits are the potential to help support balanced inflammation levels and promote focus. Other ashwagandha uses include taking ashwagandha for sleep and as well as other ashwagandha health benefits.

Shoden® is a clinically-tested, purified extract of Ashwagandha made from carefully selected roots and leaves. With an industry leading 35% Withanolide Glycosides (measured by improved HPLC/UPLC methods), Shoden® Ashwagandha offers high bioavailability and shows bioactivity even at low doses. This means that Shoden® Ashwagandha carries by far the highest composition compared to any other extracts in the market. This makes Shoden® a potent ashwagandha supplement for those wanting a wide range of ashwagandha benefits.*

Shoden® Lab Testing

Here at Nootropics Depot, we never release a product unless we can validate the science in an ISO accredited lab. This is why we worked with the team from Arjuna, the makers of Shoden, to create improved analytical methods for testing ashwagandha. The standard USP method for assaying withanolides only looks at 8-10 of them. However, there are over 40 different withanolides made by the ashwagandha plant. This means that by only using the USP method, you are missing the majority of the withanolides types. By working with the scientific team from Arjuna, we were able to develop and validate much more accurate assay methods for testing the total withanolide content of ashwagandha. As part of the validation process, the withanolides were structurally elucidated via NMR, which allowed for the expansion of the withanolides that can be measured. This process has led to the most accurate ashwagandha assay methods in the world. Two ISO accredited lab can now perform this lab testing: Omnient Labs and Intertek. To make better products, you have to be able to measure more accurately. This is why advancing the science is so crucial. It allows for a more complete picture of the botanicals we love!
