 Next question is from Matthew Garcia. How long should I supplement with Ashwagandha for? You know what's funny about Ashwagandha? It is now becoming, because of the studies that they're doing on Ashwagandha, it's becoming one of the most popular health and wellness and athletic performance herbs that you'll find anywhere. There's no drawbacks of doing every day, right? Well, drawbacks potentially. Could you down-regulate and like not be? No, no. What I mean by that is you could have an intolerance to nightshade vegetables, so you might have an issue. It also changes your body's relationship with cortisol. So, yeah, it could, one of the reasons, and in fact it lowers cortisol, right? Because I guess your body becomes more efficient using cortisol. So that's why it's a good stress hormone, or excuse me, a stress supplement or what they would call an adaptogen. But the challenge with stuff like that is it may mask other stuff. So you may just allow yourself to keep messing your body up more and more. Oh, interesting. But that being said, it improves recovery, strength, it gives people better sleep, raises testosterone, and men, it's a remarkable herb and supplement. I personally do not see effects past 60 days. After two months, I go off, it does nothing for me anymore. Oh, interesting. And I noticed that with any herb or supplement. So give me an example of somebody who you would for sure recommend, like, oh, that type of person should take this. And then what person would you say would avoid, you would say avoid it? Yeah, so the person I would give it to, they already have a good diet, they're exercising well, good sleep, right? So everything else, all the big stuff is taken care of. And they want a little extra performance, they want better recovery. Then I may recommend, hey, let's try Ashwagandha. A lot of people seem to feel real good on it. So let's give that a shot. The person I wouldn't would be the person who we're dealing with, you know, HPA access dysfunction. Now, typically functional medicine practitioners will use Ashwagandha to help people with HPA access dysfunction. But because I'm not an expert in treating that, I wouldn't do it because what I'm afraid of doing is giving them something that makes them feel better, but then doesn't address the root issues. So like, it allows them to keep going on the bad, the wrong path. So like the cortisol junkie we talked about on the show the other day, you would avoid giving it to that client because you would hold them to masks. Temporarily they would feel better and they would probably cause more damage. Might even start ramping it up. Totally, right? So, and you know, a functional medicine practitioner would look at all the other stuff first before, or all together. But other than that, I mean, it's a great, I tell you, most people if they take Ashwagandha within a few weeks will notice energy libido and athletic performance enhancement. So really it's just like you get adapted to it at some point, which then it probably loses a bit of its effectiveness overall. Yeah, and I have yet to find any product that doesn't do that. Yeah, right. Well, so the green juice organifies, they have what, 600 milligrams of it inside there, inside of it, is that considered a reasonable dose? Is that, okay. Yeah, that's a good dose. You could go higher if you're like, you know, super intense, lots of stress. The way I would use it, as I'd say, okay, I'm gonna go through six weeks of really intense workouts, or I'm gonna add extra volume because I'm trying to cut or something like that. Then I would throw it in and it moves the overtraining line a little further. So now I can add more volume, more training and I'm not so at risk. Because here's what I noticed with Ashwagandha. I don't get a sore and a stiff and I seem to be able to handle a lot more volume when I'm taking it. But again, it's one of the few supplements you'll actually notice. Most people will notice a difference. Not as profound as creatine and creatine is something you can take, you take all the time. It's not something you go off and I'll just take it all the time and you continue to reap the health benefits from it. I wonder if that's one of the major things that people do report back about the green juice, why it makes them feel so good. I 100% think so. Oh wow. 100% think so. I think the Ashwagandha makes that big of a difference, so it's good stuff. Hey, if you enjoyed that clip, you can find the full episode here or you can find other clips over here.
