Description
Ashwagandha Root organic tincture is the herb that should come to mind when you are recovering from periods of exhaustion or illness. This tincture is particularly good for those who are anxious and have difficulty sleeping. Ashwagandha root is an adaptogenic herb and has remarkable stress relieving and rejuvenating properties. Several studies highlight this advantage, observing Ashwagandha’s ability to decrease participant’s stress and anxiety levels significantly[1][2]. It can benefit sleep quality as well – researchers confirmed participants slept much better with doses of the herb compared to placebo doses[3].
Caution – Ashwagandha should not to be used in pregnancy and avoid use if allergic to nightshades. I recommend avoiding Ashwagandha if you have a hot constitution and trying Shatavari organic root tincture instead.
Ashwagandha can be taken safely with other supplements and I recommend:
If you have a busy, active lifestyle to also take Wild Nutrition Energy Support. This supplement contains all your B vitamins to help reduce tiredness, boost energy and alleviate stress and anxiety.
If you have trouble sleeping, I recommend taking Wild Nutrition Magnesium in the evenings to help promote a good night’s sleep. Also can be taken with my Sleep Time Tea and Relaxing bath salts for the ultimate night of relaxation.

I found Nikki on Instagram. I started with her digestive tea as I was suffering heartburn and digestive problems. At the time I was seeing a reflexologist for anxiety and stress which had bought on these troubles. After drinking her tea and taking ashwagandha root tincture my symptoms improved and my reflexologist was amazed at the improvement and asked for her site too.
I’m not usually a herbal tea drinker but it spurred me into trying more of her teas and I have recommended them to two of my friends, one of whom I know has already made a purchase from her and is now enjoying her tea too.
I’m very happy and glad to have found Nikki. Not only are her teas therapeutic but taste delicious too. Nikki is so friendly and helpful and I love receiving my parcels which are beautifully presented and wrapped with care.

I have been struggling with very bad anxiety and was recently diagnosed with PTSD. I’m very wary of pharmaceuticals and wanted to try herbal remedies first. I came across Nikki’s Apothecary and the Ashwaghanda tincture, I have been taking it for about a month now and I’d never be without it now! I have even recommended it to my friends and clients. Its really helped to ease the horrible side effects of anxiety, and I have been sleeping through for a full 6 hours (compared to the 2/3 hours I’d been getting before starting the tincture)
I can’t recommend this product highly enough!
Thank you Nikki. X

I have been taking Ashwagandha for the last few months as work and life is really stressful at the moment and I suffer with anxiety. This herb has been a life saver. I feel calmer and more in control and although I still feel stressed, I don’t feel like hiding under a rock. Highly recommend!
