Pourquoi choisir l’Ashwagandha Shoden® Nutrimuscle

To guarantee a pure and ethical product, Nutrimuscle has chosen to turn to the supplier Shoden®. We explain in detail the reasons for choosing Ashwagandha Shoden®.

Unique and conscientious know-how

Ashwagandha is an adaptogenic plant that has been used since ancient times. To continue to benefit from its properties, its cultivation must be as respectful and sustainable as possible. Shoden® is committed to complete traceability in its Ashwagandha production. Information on the cultivation of this plant, its environmental impact and its molecular composition are easy to access.

The main active ingredients of Ashwagandha are found in the roots and leaves. It is these parts of the plant that are preserved and separated from unwanted compounds. The extraction process ensures that the bioactives are preserved.

The roots and leaves are cleaned with purified drinking water and food-grade ethanol. This process is gentler, safer and more environmentally friendly. Ashwagandha is then tested to ensure the potency of its active ingredients and to avoid any risk of contamination.


Located in India, the production sites provide work to the poorest populations. Both men and women can benefit from free employment, food and housing, regardless of their level of education or previous skills. They actively participate in the preservation of Ashwagandha agriculture according to established standards.

Benefits linked to the quality of its supplier

Ashwagandha Shoden® has the highest active ingredient content on the market. It contains 35% withanolide glycosides (compared to 5% on average for others), maximum bioavailability even at low doses. A significant level of withanolides is found in the body even after 24 hours.

The uses are multiple: Ashwagandha is suitable for athletes as well as sedentary people. Thanks to its antioxidant properties, this plant protects against neurodegenerative, joint, cancerous diseases and inflammatory pain. Also used for sleep for its soporific effects, it has benefits against anxiety, stress and helps increase concentration. It acts directly on the sources of fatigue. However, it is not considered to be a sleeping pill, the latter being short-lived and addictive.


In sports, ashwagandha releases ATP levels and increases energy levels. In bodybuilding, it has been shown to improve strength and power, as well as increase endurance and balance. It is also useful for endurance sports that require a lot of energy over a longer period of time. In addition, the active ingredients in ashwagandha are anti-inflammatory; they help reduce muscle fatigue and muscle soreness.


Nutrimuscle selects its suppliers based on their transparency and the quality of their products. Ashwagandha Shoden® has been tested and clinically proven for the purity of its virtues. From production to consumption, Shoden® is as concerned about the health of its consumer as it is about the environment.
