Broad benefits from Ayurvedic tradition
Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera Dunal) is a key herb in Ayurveda, the traditional medicine system from India. People have used it for centuries. It is known for its broad range of benefits.
Many clinical studies support the effects of ashwagandha. This is why root-based extracts are now well known worldwide.
Helps in stressful situations**
Ashwagandha is an adaptogen. Adaptogens help the body handle stress. They support better resilience during stressful periods.**
Ashwagandha also supports cognition. It supports muscle growth. It helps maintain good endurance.**
Ashwagandha also supports healthy sexual function in men. It supports healthy reproductive organs in women.** It is one of the few herbs with scientific support for both mental and physical aspects of health.
KSM-66® uses only ashwagandha roots for its extract. It does not add leaves. Many brands add leaves because they cost much less than roots. Leaves can be about fifteen times cheaper.
Safety of ashwagandha
Some media reports have recently questioned the safety of ashwagandha. Ashwagandha appears on positive lists in several EU member states. It is generally safe for most people.
Very rare cases of liver problems have been reported during ashwagandha use. No scientific link has been proven between ashwagandha and liver damage.
In the past 23 years, the Dutch side effects center Lareb received only a few reports about ashwagandha (4). It is important to be careful if you use thyroid medication or antidepressants.
Use during pregnancy or breastfeeding is not recommended as a precaution. For most people, ashwagandha is safe to use.
Only the root for stronger effects
Research shows that most health benefits come from the root. The leaves of Withania somnifera Dunal do not play the main role.
This is easy to explain. Roots contain much higher levels of active compounds than leaves.
Active compounds in natural ratios
KSM-66®, produced by Ixoreal, is the result of more than fourteen years of research and innovation. It uses a highly concentrated root extract.
Ixoreal states that KSM-66 has one of the highest root extract concentrations available worldwide. This is why it is often positioned as a top-quality ashwagandha extract.
Full spectrum extract for maximum effect
Ixoreal offers a highly concentrated full spectrum extract. A full spectrum extract contains all components of the original herb in balanced amounts. It avoids an overly high level of one single compound.
Ashwagandha works through a mix of active compounds. These compounds should stay in their natural ratios for the best effect. This is why a full spectrum extract matters.
Natural extraction with a traditional milk process
The KSM-66 extraction process starts with a milk pre-treatment. This is why it may contain traces of lactose. This dairy step comes from traditional Ayurvedic methods.
The milk pre-treatment helps extract both water-soluble and fat-soluble components from the raw root. This supports a balanced full spectrum extract.
This process uses milk instead of alcohol or other solvents. This supports a more natural extraction method.
BioPerine® added for better absorption
BioPerine® (95-98% piperine) is an extract from black pepper fruit. Piper Nigrum is the plant that produces black pepper. It grows in humid and nutrient-rich regions in South India.
Sabinsa, the company behind BioPerine®, monitors the harvest process. The pepper berries are picked just before ripening. Farmers then dry them in the sun to help maintain quality.
Pure, safe, and effective
BioPerine® is a patented piperine extract. It gained this status through clinical testing. It is described as pure, safe, and effective.
BioPerine® is added to Ashwagandha KSM-66® to support better absorption of ashwagandha.
