My experience with Ashwaghanda so far is that it makes me feel more anxious, this was quite depressing as it's supposed to have the opposite effect. I only use a 1.5% standardised extract. I tried it for a week. I hope to trial it for a month but I couldn't stand feeling more anxious.
I've just bought 10lbs (4.5KG) of whey protein concentrate. I hope to do some moderate exercise and gym work. I'm also hoping this whey concentrate has enough alpha lactabulmin which is a potent source of tryptophan. There have been positive results with people saying they felt better after taking whey protein. This won't suit anyone who is lactose intolerant however I'm not and I see to tolerate this stuff well so far. I'm going give it a couple weeks before I evaluate if it's had a calming or anxiolytic effect.
