WHY YOUR ASHWAGANDHA "STOPPED WORKING"😬 || The TRUTH About Adaptation, Cortisol & Fat Loss
Description
Ladies — if you're on a fat loss or hormone health journey and feel like your ashwagandha "stopped working" after a few weeks… this episode is going to blow your mind 🤯
You didn't build a tolerance — your body adapted.
Ashwagandha is an adaptogen, not a drug. That means it helps your body handle stress and eventually rebalance your cortisol and HPA axis.
Here's what's actually happening 👇
– Your cortisol is dropping by up to 30% (per research)
– Your thyroid (T4 → T3) and testosterone are improving
– Your stress reactivity is lower — which is why you don't "feel" it anymore
– You've reached homeostasis — that's the goal 🔥
This episode breaks down:
✅ Why ashwagandha "stops working" after 4–8 weeks
✅ How to cycle it correctly (8–12 weeks on, 2–4 weeks off)
✅ Dosage ranges (300–600mg KSM-66 sweet spot)
✅ Why "not feeling it" is actually the sign it's WORKING
