Ashwagandha Root Powder

Asgandh Nagori

Drawn from the prized Nagori belt of Nagaur, Rajasthan, where arid, mineral-dense soil concentrates the root's withanolides into thick, starchy fingers. Stone-clean and finely milled, it carries the variety's signature earthy, almost horse-like depth. Stir into warm milk with honey at night, fold into smoothies and energy balls, or blend into adaptogenic latte mixes.

In short

Ashwagandha Root Powder (Asgandh Nagori) is a finely milled adaptogenic root from Nagaur, Rajasthan, India, known for its withanolide content. It is a key ingredient for global nutraceutical, functional food, and supplement markets.

Sourcing & Origin

Treedha's Ashwagandha Root Powder (Asgandh Nagori) is exclusively sourced from the acclaimed Nagori belt in Rajasthan, India. This region's unique arid climate and soil composition, at altitudes of 300-400 metres, are ideal for cultivating Withania somnifera roots with high concentrations of active compounds.

Our commitment to the Nagori SF (super-fine) root grade ensures that buyers receive unbranched white roots, indicative of optimal maturity and potency. Sourcing from this specific origin provides complete provenance, a critical factor for bulk importers and private-label brands seeking consistent quality and an authentic Indian Ginseng product.

Export Grades & Specifications

In the bulk trade, Ashwagandha Root Powder specifications hinge primarily on the withanolide content, which signifies its potency as an adaptogen. Treedha supplies the Nagori SF (super-fine) root grade, derived solely from unbranched white roots, ensuring superior purity.

Key quality parameters for this grade include a guaranteed withanolide content, typically tested via HPLC to ensure not less than 2.5% on a dry basis, aligning with USP guidelines. Furthermore, moisture content is meticulously controlled to below 5% for stability, and the powder achieves a uniform, fine granulation for excellent mixability in diverse applications. Treedha also ensures the product is free from additives or artificial enhancers, presenting a light beige to brown colour characteristic of authentic Nagaur Ashwagandha. Purity testing for heavy metals, pesticides, and aflatoxins is a standard practice, validated by NABL or FSSAI-approved labs.

Quality, Safety & Compliance

Compliance with stringent international food safety standards is paramount for Ashwagandha Root Powder. Treedha ensures that all our Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) products are steam-sterilised and guaranteed ethylene-oxide-free (ETO-free), addressing a critical concern for European Union imports as highlighted by the EU Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed (RASFF).

For both EU and US markets, our Ashwagandha Root Powder is rigorously tested to meet specific limits for aflatoxins, mycotoxins, heavy metals, and pesticide Maximum Residue Levels (MRLs). We provide a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) from NABL or FSSAI-approved laboratories with every batch, confirming compliance with these microbial and chemical contaminant standards. Additionally, Treedha adheres to Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and is prepared to support Foreign Supplier Verification Program (FSVP) requirements for US importers, alongside providing mandatory documentation such as Phytosanitary Certificates and Certificates of Origin issued by relevant Indian authorities.

Global Demand & Target Markets

The global demand for Ashwagandha (Indian Ginseng) is robust and expanding, driven by increasing consumer awareness of natural health solutions. The market is projected to exceed $1.8 billion by 2033–2034, with India as the leading exporter. This growth stems from the recognition of Ashwagandha's adaptogenic properties, which assist in managing stress, supporting sleep quality, and enhancing stamina.

Major importing regions include the United States, Germany, Australia, the United Kingdom, and Canada. These markets integrate Ashwagandha into dietary supplements, functional foods, wellness beverages, and sports nutrition, often preferring clean-label, plant-based ingredients. While demand is high, buyers must note specific regional restrictions, such as recent bans or daily intake limits in countries like Denmark and France, as reported by the EU RASFF and trade publications like Nutraceuticals World.
