Overview

Nootropics Depot's Shoden extract capsule delivers a patented ashwagandha root extract standardized to 35% withanolides, dosed at 120mg per capsule in a 90 count bottle.

Shoden is a specific branded ashwagandha extract manufactured to a high withanolide concentration, which is why the capsule dose here is small at 120mg compared with the 300 to 600mg often seen in less concentrated root powder extracts. The 35% withanolide standardization is the number to compare against other ashwagandha products, since raw milligram counts alone don't tell you much without it.

Who it's for

Anyone who has tried standard ashwagandha extracts and wants a more concentrated, standardized version in a smaller capsule. Less suited to buyers who specifically want whole root powder rather than a standardized extract.

Frequently asked

Questions about the Nootropics ND1275B

Common buyer questions answered straight from the product spec data - no fluff, no "it depends".

What is Shoden ashwagandha?

It's a specific branded ashwagandha root extract standardized to a high withanolide percentage, used here at 35% concentration.

Why is the dose only 120mg when other ashwagandha products use 300-600mg?

Because this extract is concentrated to 35% withanolides, a smaller milligram amount can deliver a comparable active dose to less concentrated extracts.

How many capsules are in the bottle?

90 capsules per bottle.
