Why buy Ashwagandha KSM-66® from HSN?
Pure KSM-66®️
Our KSM-66® ashwagandha extract is made solely and exclusively from the Ixoreal Biomed Inc. raw material, the only manufacturer of the internationally renowned registered trademark.
We don't use other ashwagandhas in our product, it is 100% KSM-66®, guaranteed.
100% Root
KSM-66® is made exclusively from a careful selection of the largest roots of Withania somnifera. This process is back by the knowledge, following quality research, that these are the most desirable parts of the plant.
Neither leaves nor smaller parts of the roots are used.
The entire cultivation and harvesting process is carried out in the Indian state of Rajasthan, which boasts an optimal climate and arid soil conditions for cultivating the best quality authentic Indian Ginseng.
14 years of research
The development of KSM-66® has required no less than 14 years of research and development to refine the patented process that Ixoreal uses to obtain its acclaimed raw material.
The extract, despite being standardised to 5% withanolides, is considered 'full-spectrum'.
Ixoreal explains that the 'full-spectrum extract' is perfect, as the majority of scientific research is conducted on ashwagandha roots that have a balance of the plant's characteristic chemical constituents. Obtaining an extract with an extremely high % of withanolides may, according to the manufacturer, lead to a loss of balance in its substances.
The KSM-66 ® extraction process is based on 'green chemistry', as its patented extraction procedure is carried out with the use of chemical solvents or alcohol.
Intensive research
KSM-66® is a raw material whose use is backed by a multitude of scientific studies.
Ixoreal Biomed note that no less than 22 scientific trials in humans of the highest methodological quality use KSM-66® to evaluate the effects of ashwagandha.
Without Withaferin A. Validated by HPLC
KSM-66® does not contain Withaferin A, a type of Withanolide that Ixoreal considers relevant to eliminate for reasons justified in the studies they've carried out.
The almost non-existence of Withaferin A and the 5% guaranteed Withanolide content has been verified by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). This is in place of the gravimetry other manufacturers use to measure the presence of constituents in the extract, as according to Ixoreal, gravimetry overestimates withanolide content by up to x3.
Certificates and awards
Ixoreal has 24 quality certificates that support its good manufacturing practices.
For its great performance, KSM-66® has received renowned innovation and quality awards from all over the world, throughout the time it's spent on the market.
Vegan
Our version of KSM-66® is vegan. But not all versions of it are.
Ixoreal makes 2 types of KSM-66®:
- Vegan and allergen free.
- Non-vegan and with milk allergen.
Our product does not contain any allergens listed in EU regulation 1169/2011 and is 100% suitable for vegan diets.

Finally Hsn brings out its new Ashwagandha with the patent KSM-66 for me the one that best suits me and I have tried them all (Sensoril-Shoden) and although it is true that it has less percentage of withanolides than the other two I feel better because those withanolides 5% are exclusively from the root extract without including leaves less sedative than the other two, but it also exerts its function and gives you more focus in the morning. Great price and great product as always at HSN.

Since I've been taking it, I feel much better hormonally and in terms of rest. It does not work miracles, so you are not going to notice big changes (especially if you do not already do everything else: eat well, rest...) but it is good as a plus to help you feel more vital or regulate your cycle. I recommend it especially for women.

Absolute quality
Pie 05/01/2023
The quality is definitely high. In the fall I used Shoden for two months which was the bomb, but when I took it off I had a brief down period psychologically, which I resolved with a week of 5htp to restore good mood. I chose to take KSM because of its somewhat less potent and more balanced formula for sports people, since I use it as an adaptogenic tonic and for fitness and good mood. I think that may be enough for me, we'll see. However, the certifications are an absolute guarantee, you just have to find the most suitable for your body and use, and use it for a prolonged period to notice the effects.
