MST® NUTRITION ASHWAGANDHA KSM-66®
Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera Dunal) is the most important herb in Ayurveda, an ancient medical system that originated in South Asia and is now practiced worldwide as alternative medicine. The name Ayurveda comes from the Sanskrit words āyu - "life" and veda - "knowledge". Ashwagandha has been known for centuries, but its popularity is increasing significantly worldwide due to new pharmacological and medical research. Organic ashwagandha promotes balance in the body and is an adaptogenic herb that helps the body successfully adapt to stressful conditions.
MST® Ashwagandha KSM-66®: What makes it special?
MST® Nutrition has added a new product to its range - MST® Ashwagandha KSM-66®. While the benefits of ashwagandha supplements are generally well known, what makes KSM-66® special? KSM-66® is Ixoreal's ashwagandha extract, perfected through 14 years of research and development. It is the most highly concentrated "full-spectrum" ashwagandha extract on the market, produced using a unique, patented extraction process based on the principles of "green chemistry", without alcohol or chemical solvents.
A "full-spectrum" extract preserves the balance of the various components of the original herb without excessive amounts of any single component. The effectiveness of the ashwagandha herbal supplement is attributed to its complex blend of active ingredients, all of which must be present in their natural proportions. Producing a highly concentrated full-spectrum extract is technologically challenging, but Ixoreal achieved this after years of dedicated research and development.
Ixoreal's scientific team sought to offer the true essence of ashwagandha with all its benefits. They believed that the essence of the root could be extracted without losing its effectiveness. The team studied the chemistry of the plant and developed a method to extract the entire essence of the root holistically while preserving its natural healing power. This achievement was made possible through green chemistry processing, which proved extremely successful.
