Ashwagandha
Intervention and placebo group each received a bottle of 60 capsules. Subjects were instructed to take one capsule in the morning and 1 capsule in the evening. Intervention group was getting 350 mg ashwagandha root extract per capsule (or 700 mg per day). Each intervention capsule delivered 2.5 mg withanolides with equivalence of 2,700 mg dry herb.
Placebo
The Placebo group received the same type of bottle with similar looking capsules. Each person in the placebo group was instructed to take 1 capsule twice a day (2 capsules total). Capsules were filled with glycerin to the same weight as ashwagandha. Capsules were indistinguishable from each other.
