BioTech Ashwa 30 Capsules

In addition to ashwagandha root extract, BioTech Ashwa+ capsules contain the following herbal extracts per daily dose (1 capsule):
* Panax ginseng root extract: 125 mg, of which 25 mg are ginsenosides.
* Green tea leaf extract: 75 mg, of which 38 mg are polyphenols, 11 mg are EGCG, and 5.3 mg is caffeine.
The capsules are intended for a daily intake of 1 capsule with a large glass of water and should not be taken on an empty stomach.

When taking BioTech Ashwa+ capsules, various side effects and interactions may occur, which should be considered due to the active ingredients (ashwagandha extract, Panax ginseng, and green tea extract).
Possible side effects:
The most common side effects include gastrointestinal discomfort such as nausea, abdominal pain, or diarrhea. In some cases, dizziness, drowsiness, or headaches may occur. Occasionally, allergic skin reactions or a drop in blood pressure occur. Due to the ginseng and green tea extract, sleep disturbances, restlessness, or palpitations are also possible in sensitive individuals.
Drug Interactions:
1. Sedatives and Psychotropic Drugs: Ashwagandha can intensify the effects of sedatives (e.g., benzodiazepines, barbiturates) and CNS depressants, which can lead to extreme drowsiness.
2. Thyroid Hormones: Because ashwagandha can stimulate thyroid function and increase hormone levels, caution should be exercised when taking it concurrently with thyroid medication to avoid hyperthyroidism.
3. Diabetes Medications: Ashwagandha and ginseng can lower blood sugar levels. In combination with antidiabetic drugs or insulin, there is an increased risk of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar).
4. Antihypertensives: The ingredients can lower blood pressure, which can intensify the effect of antihypertensive medications and lead to excessively low blood pressure.
5. Immunosuppressants: Ashwagandha can stimulate the immune system and thereby weaken the effect of medications that suppress the immune system (e.g., after transplants or in cases of autoimmune diseases).
6. Blood thinners: Panax ginseng can affect the action of anticoagulants (such as warfarin or phenprocoumon) and alter the risk of bleeding.
Contraindications:
This product is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women, nor for individuals under 18 years of age. Individuals with pre-existing medical conditions (especially autoimmune diseases, thyroid disorders, or liver problems) should consult a doctor before taking this product. The capsules should not be taken on an empty stomach.

For optimal tolerability, BioTech Ashwa+ capsules should ideally be taken once daily, whole, with sufficient liquid, directly with a meal. Consuming them with food ensures that the plant extracts are absorbed more gently by the digestive system and minimizes potential stomach irritation. Taking them with a meal also promotes even absorption of the active ingredients throughout the body.

BioTech Ashwa+ capsules combine extracts of ashwagandha (Withania somnifera), Panax ginseng (Korean ginseng), and green tea. This dietary supplement is suitable for both women and men—athletes and non-athletes alike—who are looking for a plant-based product to support vitality and well-being or to supplement their daily vitamin intake.
