Overview

Swanson Full Spectrum Ashwagandha provides 450mg of ashwagandha root per capsule. Unlike standardized extracts like KSM-66 or Sensoril, this is a full spectrum root powder that contains the complete range of naturally occurring compounds. While it may not have the clinical backing of branded extracts, the 120-capsule count at under $10 makes it one of the most affordable ashwagandha options available. Swanson has been a trusted supplement brand since 1969.

Our Verdict

Swanson Full Spectrum Ashwagandha is the budget king — you won't find a cheaper ashwagandha anywhere. It's full spectrum root rather than standardized extract, so potency varies, but at this price it's hard to complain.
