Some studies are also exploring its potential to protect against neurodegenerative diseases and cancer.<\/p>\n<p>However, the site also notes that more research is needed to fully understand how ashwagandha works in the human body. Although small studies have been conducted, they vary in dosage and preparation methods, making it difficult to draw definite conclusions.<\/p>\n<p>But it\u2019s become Westernized.
