Ashwagandha Powder – A Powerful Ayurvedic Adaptogen
This batch of Ashwagandha Powder contains trace amounts of peanut and is not suitable for anyone with a peanut allergy. Because of this confirmed allergen presence, it is being offered at a significantly reduced price. Stock is limited and available only while this batch lasts.
This Ashwagandha was grown and supplied as certified organic at source and is of the same high quality as our usual Organic Ashwagandha. However, due to the special circumstances surrounding this batch and the confirmed peanut traces, we have chosen not to market it as organic. Aside from the allergen presence, the quality, sourcing and milling remain the same as our standard product.
Country of Origin: India
Botanical Name: Withania Somnifera,
Common Names: Indian Ginseng, Winter Cherry

How did this happen?
This batch contains trace amounts of peanut at source, (prior to arrival with us) earlier in the supply chain. The Ashwagandha itself does not contain peanut as an ingredient and remains the same high quality organic root powder we expect from our suppliers.This batch of Ashwagandha contains trace amounts of peanut identified earlier in the supply chain. We have a very limited stock available from this batch at an amazing price. It is the same high quality, certified organic Ashwagandha powder, carefully sourced and finely milled, and there is nothing wrong with the product other than the confirmed peanut traces. Our regular Ashwagandha is not affected and has been tested separately. Suitable only for those without a peanut allergy.
The product meets our usual quality standards in every other respect. The only reason for the reduced price is the confirmed presence of peanut traces, which has been clearly declared across the website, on packaging and on invoices for complete transparency.
Our regular Ashwagandha Powder is not affected. It has been tested separately and is free from peanut and other allergens, and continues to be sold as normal.
Safety & cross contamination
To ensure safety, we’ve followed strict HACCP procedures for this batch. It is stored in a completely separate, clearly signposted area from our regular Ashwagandha. During packing, it is handled in a dedicated nut packaging area by a single trained team member, using clean utensils and surfaces. Every pouch and invoice is clearly labelled in bold: CONTAINS PEANUT TRACES, so there’s no risk of sending the wrong product to our customers.
These steps are part of our robust allergen management system, ensuring this batch is handled safely from storage to dispatch. Despite the peanut traces, the powder is high-quality, certified organic, and finely milled, just like our regular Ashwagandha.
We have a very limited amount of this batch available at an amazing price, and once it’s gone, our standard, allergen-free Ashwagandha continues to be available as normal.
What is Ashwagandha?
Our Ashwagandha Powder is made from dried Ashwagandha root and finely milled for easy use in drinks, foods and home recipes.
Ashwagandha, botanically known as Withania somnifera, belongs to the nightshade family, which also includes tomatoes. It is native to India and surrounding regions, where it has been cultivated and used as a food grade botanical ingredient for generations. The root naturally contains a range of plant compounds, including withanolides, alkaloids, amino acids and fatty acids.
Ashwagandha powder can be added to a variety of foods and drinks. A small amount such as one eighth of a teaspoon is commonly used to begin with, and adjusted gradually to personal preference. It is often mixed into smoothies, juices, warm drinks such as herbal teas or plant milks, or added to recipes alongside other superfood powders.
Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. Not recommended during pregnancy. If you are taking medication or have a medical condition, seek professional advice before use.
