What Does Ashwagandha Do? | Ashwagandha is a multifunctional adaptogenic herb that may confer several health benefits; it primarily helps reduce stress by regulating cortisol levels. It is also suggested to enhance physical performance, support mental health, and promote restful sleep quality. |
What is the Difference Between Ashwagandha and KSM-66® Ashwagandha? | KSM-66® is a patented organic ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) root extract that is standardized to contain 5% bioactive constituents. Many herbal supplements contain an unspecified/generic ashwagandha root extract that may contain a negligible amount of withanolides, rendering the product less effective. This is why we chose KSM-66® specifically to ensure you get the most effective, potent, and intensively researched ashwagandha extract on the market. |
Can You Take KSM-66® Ashwagandha Everyday? | Yes, you can take Ashwagandha daily. As an herbal supplement, ashwagandha is generally considered safe and can provide continuous benefits for physical and mental stress management, energy levels, and overall well-being. |
Does Ashwagandha Interfere with Thyroid Hormone Medications? | Ashwagandha may interact with thyroid hormone medications and potentially increase circulating thyroid hormone concentrations in the blood. In a randomized, placebo-controlled study, subclinical hypothyroid patients experienced improvements in thyroid function and levels after taking ashwagandha root extract [RR]. If you're currently taking thyroid medication, consult your healthcare provider before taking ashwagandha extract to avoid any adverse effects. |
What Is the Difference Between Ashwagandha Root and Leaf Extract? | Like a root extract of ashwagandha, a leaf extract typically contains a dense amount of steroidal lactones (i.e. withanolides), alkaloids, and antioxidants. It's unclear if root and leaf extracts have significantly different effects and they are generally considered interchangeable. |
Is There Concern for Ashwagandha-Induced Liver Injury? | Although very rare, a few case reports have been published in recent years describing drug-induced hepatocellular injury in subjects who were taking dietary supplements with ashwagandha [RR, RR]. However, many of these case reports involved subjects with pre-existing liver disease/dysfunction, which conflicts with evidence of ashwagandha supplementation protecting the liver from damage [RR]. |
Can You Drink Alcohol While Taking KSM-66® Ashwagandha? | Moderate alcohol consumption does not significantly interact with ashwagandha supplementation, but combining both could potentially amplify sedative effects. It is advisable to avoid heavy alcohol consumption when taking ashwagandha. |
Does Transparent Labs Ship to My Country? | Our fulfillment center allows us to ship worldwide (with some exceptions due to fraudulent activity in certain countries; click here for more info). Standard shipping for international orders typically takes 10-14 business days to arrive. |
When Will My Order Be Shipped Out? | All orders are shipped out the following business day. |
KSM-66® Ashwagandha Root Extract | 600 mg | Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera), also known as Indian ginseng, is arguably the most versatile adaptogenic herb known to man.
Adaptogenic herbs are so-named because they help the body adapt to and overcome physical and mental stress through diverse mechanisms, such as modulating stress hormone production (e.g., lowering cortisol levels) and attenuating inflammation.
Several recent research reviews comprising preclinical and clinical trials suggest that the health benefits of ashwagandha extract include [1, 2]:
KSM-66® ashwagandha root extract is an organic patented ingredient made by Ixoreal Biomed, an India-based company specializing in ashwagandha exclusively.
The company has private, sustainable ashwagandha farms located in Rajasthan, India that are said to be ideal for growing this adaptogenic herb due to the climate and soil quality.
Each batch of KSM-66® ashwagandha extract is standardized to contain 5% withanolides, the primary bioactive constituents in the herb [3]. Moreover, this specific ashwagandha root extract (KSM-66®) has been clinically evaluated in 24 human studies, a feat that no other ashwagandha extracts have matched [4].
The findings of these studies demonstrate the compelling benefits of KSM-66® for human health and longevity, especially with regard to anxiety, chronic stress, sex hormone production, body weight management, and cognitive functions/mental clarity. |
