About Ashwagandha
- Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) has a very long history of traditional use as an adaptogen, with broad benefits for immune function, stress resistance, vitality, and general well-being.
- KSM-66 is an organic proprietary extract that uses only the roots of the plant. Multiple clinical trials have demonstrated its efficacy.
- When taken over 60 days, it has been shown to substantially reduce self-reported stress levels, as well as blood levels of the hormone cortisol. Compared to a placebo, KSM-66 has also been shown to reduce food cravings and improve body weight among people reporting chronic stress.
- In randomized trials, the KSM-66 extract of ashwagandha has been associated with better sleep, well-being, and mental alertness in older adults, as well as with improved memory and brain function in individuals with cognitive impairment.
- KSM-66 supplementation by athletes has been associated with improved cardiorespiratory and physical fitness, including an increase in VO2 max and greater gains in muscle mass and strength when combined with resistance exercise.
- Other benefits reported in randomized clinical trials include increased sleep duration, improved sexual function in both men and women, an increase in testosterone and other reproductive health markers in men with low sperm counts, and restoration of the hypothalamic–pituitary–thyroid axis.
