Safety Evaluation of an Aqueous Root and Leaf Extract of Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera)
Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.Sensoril, an aqueous root and leaf extract of ashwagandha showed no evidence of mutagenicity in the in vitro Ames assay, was negative in the in vitro micronucleus, in vivo mammalian bone marrow chromosome aberration assays, and was well tolerated in the rat at up to 4000 mg/kg BW/day when administered orally for a period of 90 days. The data from these
