What is ashwagandha?

Ashwagandha, a petite shrub adorned with yellow flowers, hails from India and North Africa. Known scientifically as Withania somnifera, it's also referred to as Indian ginseng or winter cherry. In the realm of Ayurvedic healing, an Indian tradition of natural medicine, Ashwagandha stands out as a potent herb. For over 3,000 years, it has been a go-to remedy for reducing stress, boosting energy levels, and enhancing concentration.

What is KSM-66®

Ashwagandha?

KSM-66® Ashwagandha, developed from 14 years of R&D, is a top-tier, full-spectrum root extract with the market's highest concentration of active withanolides, over 5%. This peer-patented, clinically backed ingredient maintains the plant's natural compound ratio, ensuring unmatched potency and bioavailability. It's the most extensively studied Ashwagandha, supported by 22 gold standard human clinical trials, attesting to its superior efficacy.

The issue with regular ashwagandha?

The Ashwagandha market is cluttered with products using the plant's leaves, which can be harmful due to high toxicity levels. Furthermore, several Ashwagandha supplements have been found lacking the claimed levels of active compounds, compromising their effectiveness. Earth's Secret, however, ensures each daily dose contains 600mg of KSM-66® Ashwagandha, the gold standard for potency and safety. This dosage is carefully calibrated for maximum efficacy, offering you the best of Ashwagandha's benefits.
