Maybe. But do NOT use it with hyPER or with Hashimoto's.

Ashwagandha is an ayurvedic herb that may possess some health benefits.
Some evidence suggests that it could be beneficial for people with
hypothyroidism, as it may help relieve some symptoms and may also
increase levels of thyroid hormones. However, due to its effect on
thyroid hormones, it may worsen symptoms of hyperthyroidism. As with any
supplement, it is advisable to contact a doctor before taking ashwagandha.

Ashwagandha has been recognized as an adaptogen, much like turmeric,
holy basil, and licorice root. Although their effectiveness is
controversial, adaptogens have been demonstrated to produce antifatigue,
neuroprotective, antidepressive, and CNS stimulating activity.

Caution pregnant or breastfeeding patients as well as those with lupus,

using ashwagandha. Ashwagandha may interact with thyroid, blood glucose,
