While usually triggered by a specific event or situation, it can also occur without an obvious cause.<\/p>\n<p>Common symptoms of anxiety are usually fairly mild and can include feelings of worry, fear, nervousness, a sense of impending doom, restlessness, irritability, or being on edge, as well as physical symptoms like an increased heart rate, shortness of breath, sweating, dizziness, muscle tension, stomach issues, headaches, difficulty sleeping or concentrating, racing thoughts, and overthinking.<\/p>\n<p>However, when anxiety becomes persistent or overwhelming, the symptoms can become intense and start interfering with daily life, work, and relationships, and quickly spiral into an anxiety disorder that requires treatment.<\/p>\n<p>These disorders include things like Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), which causes excessive, uncontrollable worry about various life situations, even when there is little or no reason to be anxious. Panic Disorder, which causes recurrent panic attacks that involve intense fear and physical symptoms like chest pain, heart palpitations, or dizziness. Social Anxiety, which leads to an intense fear of social situations, often due to concerns about being judged or embarrassed, and even Phobias, which cause people to develop an extreme fear of a specific object, situation, or activity.<\/p>\n<p>The most common forms of treatment for anxiety include cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), lifestyle changes, relaxation techniques, medications, and supplements (2).<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ashwagandha_And_Anxiety_How_Ashwagandha_Helps_With_Anxiety\"><\/span>Ashwagandha And Anxiety: How Ashwagandha Helps With Anxiety<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reduces_Cortisol_Levels\"><\/span>Reduces Cortisol Levels<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Ashwagandha has been repeatedly shown to lower your level of cortisol, which is a steroid hormone known as the \u201cstress hormone\u201d. Naturally made by the adrenal glands of all humans, cortisol is produced in response to stress, and very high levels can lead to a range of health issues. This includes everything from anxiety to depression, weight gain, inflammation, high blood sugar, a slow metabolism, and reduced mental functions.<\/p>\n<p>Ashwagandha achieves this as it can balance and regulate the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, which is what controls the body\u2019s stress response, including the production of cortisol. By balancing this system, ashwagandha helps reduce the overproduction of cortisol, particularly during times of stress, keeping your levels within the normal range (3)(4).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.primemale.com\/articles\/how-ashwagandha-reduces-cortisol\/\">Learn more about Ashwagandha and Cortisol Here<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Regulates_Neurotransmitter_Production\"><\/span>Regulates Neurotransmitter Production<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Ashwagandha supplementation has been found to greatly influence the production of certain neurotransmitters in the brain, such as serotonin and dopamine, both of which are involved in mood regulation. By balancing the levels of these two chemicals that are present, ashwagandha can help to significantly improve a person\u2019s mood, which will help reduce anxiety and relieve any of the symptoms that it can cause (5).<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Combats_Inflammation\"><\/span>Combats Inflammation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Chronic inflammation has been linked to various mood disorders, including anxiety, as the pain that high levels of inflammation can cause places the body under a great deal of stress. Ashwagandha contains many compounds with potent anti-inflammatory properties, which enables it to help significantly reduce inflammation in both the brain and body, preventing anxiety and its symptoms or alleviating any that have already occurred (6).<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Helps_You_Sleep\"><\/span>Helps You Sleep<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Sleep disturbances can commonly be both a symptom and cause of anxiety, and ashwagandha is perhaps better at helping people sleep than it is anything else. It is so popular in this area that we have even written an entire article dedicated to it, which you can read here.<\/p>\n<p>In short, ashwagandha can improve a person\u2019s sleep latency, sleep quality, and sleep-wake cycle by promoting relaxation and a feeling of calmness. This will not only help to reduce anxiety on its own, but it will also further help lower cortisol levels, as it relieves the stress that being unable to sleep can cause, improving your mood and generally supporting the nervous system (7).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.primemale.com\/articles\/ashwagandha-and-sleep\/\">Learn more about Ashwagandha and Sleep Here<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Produces_A_GABA-Like_Effect\"><\/span>Produces A GABA-Like Effect<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Some studies suggest that ashwagandha supplementation can have a calming effect on the brain similar to the neurotransmitter GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid). It does this both by generally helping a person relax, while also promoting the more efficient production of GABA itself. As one of the main jobs of GABA is to help reduce excitability in the brain, it can significantly alleviate feelings of anxiety in the process (8).<\/p>\n\r\n    <!-- ASHWAGANDHA CTA-->\r\n    <style media=\"screen\">\r\n     .reviews--advert--v2 {\r\n       margin-top: 1.5rem;\r\n       margin-bottom: 1.5rem;\r\n     }\r\n     .reviews--advert--v2 .ashwagandha-bottle {\r\n       max-width: 100%; \r\n       width: 100%;\r\n     }\r\n     @media screen and (min-width: 1024px) {\r\n       .reviews--advert--v2 .ashwagandha-bottle {\r\n         max-width: unset;\r\n         width: 130%;\r\n       }\r\n     }\r\n    <\/style>\r\n    <div class=\"columns is-centered\">\r\n      <div class=\"column is-full-mobile is-3-tablet\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.primemale.com\/static\/frontend\/Roarambition\/Primemale\/en_US\/images\/single-ashwagandha\/ashwagandha-hero-product.png\" alt=\"Prime Male Ashwagandha Product Bottle\" class=\"product ashwagandha-bottle\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n\t\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"column is-full-mobile is-9-tablet\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"columns is-centered is-multiline\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"column is-12-mobile is-12-tablet is-12-desktop\">\r\n            <p class=\"text-center caps zmb\">\r\n              <span class=\"is-size-xxl has-text-weight-bold blue\">Tested and Trusted<\/span><br>\r\n\t          \t<span class=\"is-size-xl has-text-weight-bold\">By Over 1 Million Men<\/span>\r\n        \t\t<\/p>\r\n      \t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"column is-6-mobile is-6-tablet is-6-desktop\">\r\n            <p class=\"text-center caps zmb\">\r\n              <span class=\"is-size-xl has-text-weight-bold blue\">Free From<\/span><br>\r\n          \t\t<span class=\"is-size-l has-text-weight-bold\">Heavy Metals<\/span>\r\n        \t\t<\/p>\r\n      \t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"column is-6-mobile is-6-tablet is-6-desktop\">\r\n            <p class=\"text-center caps zmb zmt\">\r\n              <span class=\"is-size-xl has-text-weight-bold blue\">Ingredients<\/span><br>\r\n              <span class=\"is-size-l has-text-weight-bold\">3rd Party Tested<\/span>\r\n            <\/p>\r\n          <\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.primemale.com\/ashwagandha#PAS01F0\" class=\"btn btn--redgradient is-uppercase zmb\">Order Now<\/a>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"References\"><\/span>References<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>[1] &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nccih.nih.gov\/health\/ashwagandha\">https:\/\/www.nccih.nih.gov\/health\/ashwagandha<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[2] &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/books\/NBK470361\/\">https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/books\/NBK470361\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[3] &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/books\/NBK538239\/\">https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/books\/NBK538239\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[4] &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/33650944\/\">https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/33650944\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[5] &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/articles\/PMC10147008\/\">https:\/\/pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/articles\/PMC10147008\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[6] &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/articles\/PMC10386834\/\">https:\/\/pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/articles\/PMC10386834\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[7] &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/34559859\/\">https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/34559859\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[8] &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/36062480\/\">https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/36062480\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Anxiety is a condition that\u2019s becoming more and more common in society in 2025.
