Built around stress resilience, this formula delivers **Ashwagandha** at 600 mg standardized to 2.5% withanolides — the top of the clinically studied range for reducing perceived stress and cortisol levels. Multiple RCTs support this dose for measurable improvements in stress markers, making it the backbone of your daily serving.

The supporting cast includes **Boswellia Extract** at 200 mg (anti-inflammatory support), **Rhodiola** at 50 mg, and **Eleuthero** at 100 mg — two classic adaptogens, though both are dosed at the low end of their studied ranges (rhodiola trials typically use 200-600 mg). You also get 150 mg of vegan **Omega-3** powder providing about 45 mg DHA, which is a modest amount compared to the 1,000+ mg EPA/DHA range with strong clinical backing.

The formula tries to cover multiple stress pathways at once. While the ashwagandha dose is genuinely clinical-grade, several supporting ingredients are at amounts that may not reach their individual therapeutic thresholds. If stress support is your priority, the ashwagandha alone justifies attention here.

How to Take It

Best taken in the morning

Contains Rhodiola rosea, which is stimulating — keep it to the morning. What's in this is easier on the stomach taken with food.

With food

Rhodiola rosea does better on an empty stomach, but something else in this bottle needs food. Taking the whole product with a meal is the better trade — an upset stomach is why most people stop.

On the label

Take 2 vegan capsules daily, or as directed by your health care professional.

General guidance based on the ingredients, not a substitute for the label or your doctor.
