MuscleTech Platinum Ashwagandha vs Himalaya Ashvagandha

# Verdict **Himalaya Ashvagandha wins with a 7.5/10 vs 6.7/10** — the 0.8-point gap comes entirely from superior dosing. Himalaya delivers 250mg ashwagandha per serving, exactly double MuscleTech's 125mg dose. This matters significantly: clinical studies typically use 300-600mg daily, making MuscleTech's 125mg underdosed for therapeutic effects. Himalaya's 250mg gets you closer to evidence-based ranges, explaining its 5.8/10 dosing score versus MuscleTech's weak 2.9/10. Both score perfect 10.0 for formula quality and transparency, so ingredient sourcing isn't the differentiator here. The price gap is minimal — ₹16.65 vs ₹14.98 per serving (just ₹1.67 more for Himalaya). However, MuscleTech actually scores higher on value (4.2 vs 3.8) because both products are overpriced relative to their dosing; you're paying ₹0.12 per mg with MuscleTech versus ₹0.07 with Himalaya. **Choose Himalaya Ashvagandha** — the extra ₹1.67 daily gets you double the active ingredient, making it the only option here that approaches clinically effective dosing. MuscleTech is too underdosed to justify purchase at any price.
