Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) belongs to the nightshade family and is one of the most important plants in Ayurveda. Its importance is comparable to that of ginseng in traditional Chinese medicine, which is why it is often referred to as "Indian ginseng." The term "somnifera" comes from Latin and means "sleep-inducing," which is why it is also known as the sleeping berry. The roots in particular contain the highest levels of withanolides, a group of steroidal lactones responsible for the beneficial effects of ashwagandha. Organic cultivation in India produces the world's best ashwagandha plants due to the geographical location, climate, and soil.
