Ashwagandha is an herb widely used in Ayurvedic medicine for its adaptogenic properties, which help the body cope with stress and promote overall well-being. It is also commonly known as Indian ginseng.

KSM-66 Ashwagandha is a patented full-spectrum extract, with the highest concentration of all major root only extracts available on the market today. It is produced using a unique proprietary extraction process, based on “Green Chemistry” principles, without using alcohol or any other chemical solvent.

In 24 double blind, randomized placebo controlled clinical trials KSM-66 Ashwagandha has been clinically proven to:

  • Reduce stress, stress-related food cravings and enhance quality of sleep
  • Enhance memory and cognition
  • Increase endurance, strength, and immune function
  • Improve sexual function in both men and women, and testosterone in men

Some potential benefits associated with ashwagandha include:

Stress reduction: Ashwagandha is known for its ability to help the body cope with stress by regulating stress hormones like cortisol.

Anxiety and mood support: It may have anxiolytic properties, helping to reduce anxiety and promote a calmer state of mind. It is also thought to have mood-enhancing effects.

Cognitive function: Ashwagandha may support memory, concentration, and overall cognitive function. It is often used as a natural nootropic.

Energy and vitality: It is traditionally used to boost energy levels, enhance physical endurance, and support overall vitality.

Immune system support: Ashwagandha is believed to have immune-modulating properties, helping to support a healthy immune system.

Hormonal balance: It may have a positive influence on hormone levels, particularly in supporting balanced cortisol and thyroid function.

Anti-inflammatory properties: Ashwagandha contains compounds with potential anti-inflammatory effects, which may contribute to its overall health benefits.

The Science:

KSM-66 is Ixoreal’s ashwagandha extract, created via a process that took 14 years of R&D to develop and refine. KSM-66 is the best ashwagandha extract on the world market today in the sense that it is the highest concentration full-spectrum extract available today. A “full-spectrum” extract is an extract which maintains the balance of the various constituents as in the original herb, without over-representing any one constituent.

The ashwagandha herb’s efficacy is believed to be derived from a complex blend of active constituents. All the constituents need to be present in their natural proportions, which is why it is important for an extract to be full-spectrum. However, producing a high concentration full-spectrum extract is technologically very challenging. Only Ixoreal has managed to create a process that surmounts these challenges, and that too only after many years of R&D.

The Ixoreal science team sought to introduce to the world the true quintessence of ashwagandha with all its benefits. Convinced that the essence of the ashwagandha root could be extracted without losing its potency, the science team dedicated itself to learning the nuances of plant chemistry and did what no one was able to achieve until then. With `Green Chemistry` processing, they were able to holistically extract all the root essence while preserving its natural healing potency. This proved to be immensely successful.

KSM-66’s extraction process entails pre-treating the ashwagandha roots with milk. For this reason, it contains milk constituents. Such pre-treatment is consistent with the process described by traditional ayurveda healers and texts. However, the traditional process does not scale up very well. Ixoreal has taken this traditional method and refined it greatly so that it produces high quality ashwagandha in a scalable manner, combining the traditional with the modern. Therein lies Ixoreal’s “secret sauce”, a highly proprietary process that took 14 years to develop and implement. The milk pre-treatment is important in our extraction process because this is in fact what leads to retention of both hydrophilic components and lipophilic components of the raw root, which in turn leads to a full-spectrum extract of such high-potency.
