Ayurvedic support for calm energy, vitality and resilience

Maharishi Ayurveda MA686 Ashwagandha/Indian Asparagus Formula is a traditional Ayurvedic herbal food supplement combining two renowned rasayana herbs: ashwagandha and shatavari. This simple but powerful formula is designed to support vitality, resilience, balanced energy and healthy adaptation to everyday physical and mental demands.

In Ayurveda, ashwagandha is valued for calm strength and nervous system support, while shatavari is traditionally used to nourish and replenish the tissues. Together, they make MA686 a useful formula for those who feel depleted, overworked or in need of steady, grounding Ayurvedic support.
