Description

What it is. Ashwagandha tincture is a liquid extract obtained from Withania somnifera (L.) Dunal, through maceration of the plant in a hydroalcoholic solvent. It is a sensory additive classified as a flavouring substance.

What it is for. This additive is generally used for its flavouring properties, to modulate the palatability of feed intended for horses and dogs. Its use falls within a palatability logic rather than a nutritional contribution.

Points to watch. As a flavouring substance in functional group 2b, no maximum content is specified in the available sources. The composition and concentration of active compounds in the tincture may vary depending on the extraction process and the origin of the plant; storage away from light and heat is recommended for extracts of this type.
