Why include Ashwagandha in Sleep + Recover?

Ashwagandha has been shown to balance cortisol levels in a way that helps reduce levels of stress and stimulate a healthy immune system response.* Because cortisol must cycle through high levels and fall to lower levels, if this cycle does not occur, stress remains high and the body functions compromised such that deep sleep is not achieved for at least 20% of the sleep time needed for resiliency.
