What is KSM-66 Ashwagandha?

KSM-66® uses only the roots of the ashwagandha plant with no leaves added. This is because the root is the part of the plant used for its ability to help the body cope with stress, also known as its adaptogenic effects. These effects have been noted over thousands of years of traditional use plus more recently shown in clinical trials.

What makes KSM-66 Ashwagandha different?

KSM-66® is made by a family owned company in India.  They organically cultivate the herb on their farms. The plants are harvested when the active components (known as withanolides) are at their peak, and the roots are then transported to a purpose-built facility for processing.

KSM-66® extract is produced using a ‘green chemistry’ process where the extract is obtained without the use of alcohol or chemicals.  This process is the result of 14 years of research and refinement, and is consistent with the methods described by traditional Ayurvedic healers and texts.
