Helps To Manage Daily Stress And
Support Brain Function!
Living with stress is part of living in today's world. Stress is your
body's natural response to everyday physical, emotional and environmental
demands. You can't avoid this stress altogether, but using Pegasus, combined
with a healthy diet and lifestyle changes, can help minimize its negative
effects.
Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is renowned as an herbal adaptogen. In the
Indian Ayurvedic tradition it is used as a Rasayana, a dietary supplement or
practice promoting rejuvenation, mental and physical health, as well as
providing a defense against aging and challenging environmental factors.
Ashwagandha root has been shown to protect brain cells from oxidative damage
caused by exposure to stressors.
- Ashwagandha reduced the number of neurons damaged due to oxidative stress by
80% - an effect attributed to protection against stress-induced free radicals in
key areas of the brain.
- In a placebo-controlled study, men and women given an extract of Ashwagandha
root showed improved mental skills by performing better in reaction times,
mental arithmetic and logical deductions.
Dosha Guide
In Ayurveda there are seven basic body constitutions resulting from the
predominance of one or more energetic influences or Doshas. The Doshas, Vata,
Pitta and Kapha, influence physical, mental and spiritual health. Everyone is
considered to be a unique combination of these three body influences. Your
natural Doshic state of balance is called Prakruti. Pegasus is used for general
health, managing stress and to enhance physical and mental stamina. It can also
have numerous balancing benefits for the Doshas.
