In comparison with the placebo, ashwagandha supplementation was associated with a statistically significant reduction in the HAM-A ( P = .040) and a near-significant reduction in the DASS-21 ( P = .096).
In comparison with the placebo, ashwagandha supplementation was associated with a statistically significant reduction in the HAM-A ( P = .040) and a near-significant reduction in the DASS-21 ( P = .096).
Ashwagandha intake was also associated with greater reductions in morning cortisol and DHEA-S; and a positive trend suggesting an increase in testosterone concentrations (the latter evidenced in men only).
Compared with the placebo, ashwagandha intake was associated with a statistically significant, greater reduction in the HAM-A, although changes in the DASS-21 failed to reach statistical significance, despite a strong positive trend.
However, between-group differences in DASS-21 changes did not reach statistical significance.
