Ashwagandha KSM-66^® 500mg

Questions? We have answers:

What is Ashwagandha KSM-66^®?

Our Ashwagandha KSM-66^® (500mg) is 100% organic and the most clinically trialled and world-wide acclaimed form of this ‘wonder-herb’. Ashwagandha KSM-66^® is a full-spectrum extract with the highest concentration of withanolides, taken only from the root of the plant. Standard Ashwagandha supplements extract withanolides from the leaves, which have a lower concentration and potency. The KSM-66^® extraction process does not involve any chemicals, alcohol or solvents.

Ashwagandha has been used for centuries in traditional Indian medicine for supporting mental wellbeing, reducing stress, bringing a sense of calm and promoting relaxation in your body.

Does your Ashwagandha help with sleep?

Yes, our Ashwagandha KSM-66^® is very effective at lowering cortisol, thus enabling your body to produce melatonin for better sleep. Cortisol is your stress hormone and blocks your body's production of melatonin, so if you lower cortisol, it allows your body to produce more melatonin, helping you get to sleep and stay asleep for longer.

If you struggle with sleep, we also recommend our Destress & Sleep Bundle, which includes Vegan Nights^® alongside our Ashwagandha KSM-66^®, or our Ultimate Sleep Bundle which also includes Magnesium.

We also recommend incorporating some stress-reducing techniques such as deep breathing, yoga, getting out into nature and tapping (EFT) to also help reduce stress and anxiety.

When is the best time to take Ashwagandha?

There isn't a right or wrong time to take your Ashwagandha. However, if you suffer from poor sleep, particularly if due to stress and raised cortisol levels, we recommend taking your Ashwagandha in the evenings, 1-2 hours before bedtime.

Ashwagandha helps lower cortisol, your stress hormone, which can otherwise inhibit melatonin, your sleep hormone, so can be extremely helpful in aiding better sleep.

You can also take our Ashwagandha KSM-66^® during the day to help manage stress and improve stamina.

Is your Ashwagandha KSM-66^® organic?

Yes, our Ashwagandha KSM-66^® is 100% organic and vegan. Learn more about how our Ashwagandha works.

What are contraindications with Ashwagandha?

HOW LONG CAN YOU TAKE ASHWAGANDHA KSM-66^® FOR?

It is generally advisable to take a break after 4-6 months. For long-term stress support, try Stay Calm^®. Stay Calm^® has been specially formulated to be your daily partner to manage the pressure of daily life, and brings natural calm, balance, energy and focus.
