Ashwagandha is an
adaptogenic herb which has been repeatedly shown to be effective at
quelling anxiety, improving a person's response to stress, and
having neuroprotective properties. There is even some evidence that
it may increase physical performance, as well.
Here's one study (randomized
double-blind, placebo controlled, etc) showing Ashwaganda's
effectiveness in reducing stress and anxiety:

Conclusion: "The findings of this study suggest
that a high-concentration
full-spectrum Ashwagandha root extract safely and effectively improves an
individual's resistance towards stress and thereby
improves self-assessed quality of life."

Conclusion: "The
available scientific data support the conclusion that Ashwagandha
is a real potent
regenerative tonic (Rasayana of Ayurveda), due to its
multiple pharmacological actions like anti-stress, neuroprotective,
antitumor, anti-arthritic, analgesic and
anti-inflammatory etc. It is useful for different types of
diseases like Parkinson, dementia, memory loss, stress induced
diseases, malignoma and others."
