Product Description
Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera Dunal), a cornerstone of Ayurvedic tradition, has been revered for centuries for its exceptional ability to support both mind and body. KSM-66® is a scientifically validated, full-spectrum extract, derived exclusively from the roots of the ashwagandha plant—without any leaves added. Since leaves cost only a fraction of what roots do, many manufacturers opt for them; however, KSM-66® prioritises quality. Using only the roots guarantees a higher concentration of active compounds, such as withanolides.
Ashwagandha KSM-66® Delivers Proven, Versatile Benefits:
• Helps the body adapt to stressful situations**
• Supports mental clarity, memory, and learning performance**
• Contributes to muscle growth and endurance**
• Aids in maintaining energy levels during fatigue and exhaustion**
• Assists in preserving healthy skin and respiratory function**
The addition of Bioperine® (black pepper extract) enhances the absorption of Ashwagandha’s active compounds, further boosting its effectiveness.

What Are Withanolides?
Withanolides are a group of natural steroid lactones predominantly found in plants of the Solanaceae family, such as Withania somnifera (ashwagandha). These compounds are a hallmark of Ashwagandha and are considered its principal active constituents. While not classified as a medicine, withanolides contribute significantly to making Ashwagandha a valuable herb in traditional Ayurvedic health practices by fostering a balanced connection between body and mind.
The Versatile Power of Ashwagandha: Support for Body and Mind
The unique root of Ashwagandha not only supports normal sexual function in men** and reproductive health in women**, but it also offers broader benefits. It is one of the few herbs that bolsters both psychological and physiological processes in a scientifically validated way—enhancing cognitive function, stimulating muscle growth, and helping to maintain endurance.** This multifaceted support makes Ashwagandha particularly valuable for promoting overall balance and wellbeing.
Active Compounds in Natural Proportions
Developed by Ixoreal following more than 14 years of research, the KSM-66® extract is recognised as the most concentrated and pure form of Ashwagandha available worldwide. Derived solely from the plant’s roots, it delivers the highest concentration of active compounds, making it one of the best Ashwagandha supplements on the market.
Full-Spectrum Extract for Maximum Effect
What sets KSM-66® apart is its full-spectrum approach. All active compounds from the original herb are preserved in their natural proportions, ensuring an optimally balanced composition. The synergy between these components enhances the overall efficacy, rendering the product both effective and reliable.
Natural Extraction According to Ayurvedic Tradition
KSM-66® is produced using an extraction process that incorporates a milk pre-treatment—a method rooted in traditional Ayurvedic practice. This unique approach ensures the optimal extraction of both hydrophilic (water-soluble) and lipophilic (fat-soluble) compounds from the root. By using milk rather than alcohol or other chemicals, the process results in a natural, potent extract. Although traces of lactose may remain, the product stays true to Ayurvedic traditions while delivering maximum efficacy.
Enhanced Absorption Thanks to Bioperine®
To further boost the effectiveness of KSM-66®, Bioperine® has been added. This high-quality black pepper extract, containing 95–98% piperine, significantly improves the absorption of Ashwagandha’s active compounds. Sourced from the Piper nigrum plant in the fertile regions of South India, Bioperine® is carefully harvested and dried to preserve its natural properties, resulting in a pure and safe ingredient.
Patented, Pure, and Effective
Bioperine® is the only black pepper extract with patented status. Clinical tests have demonstrated that it is not only safe and effective but also optimises nutrient absorption. Combined with Ashwagandha KSM-66®, Bioperine® creates a supplement that provides maximum support for both physical and mental balance.
Why Choose Vitakruid Ashwagandha KSM-66® & Bioperine®?
With the vast array of Ashwagandha products available, making the right choice can be challenging. Vitakruid Ashwagandha KSM-66® & Bioperine® distinguishes itself on several fronts, offering a quality that is hard to match. Here are the key reasons why this supplement stands out:
-
Highly Concentrated Full-Spectrum Extract
KSM-66® is the most concentrated full-spectrum extract globally, preserving all active compounds in their natural proportions—crucial for optimal performance. Many other brands dilute their products with leaf extracts, which contain fewer active compounds and often reduce overall efficacy. -
Use of Roots Only
The active compounds in Ashwagandha are most abundant in the roots. Vitakruid uses only roots, whereas other brands often incorporate cheaper leaves, compromising quality. -
Traditional Ayurvedic Extraction Method
The KSM-66® extraction process employs a milk pre-treatment as prescribed by traditional Ayurvedic medicine, ensuring optimal extraction of both water- and fat-soluble compounds. In contrast, many competing products use chemical extraction methods that fail to preserve this balance. -
Addition of Bioperine® for Enhanced Absorption
Bioperine®, a patented black pepper extract, significantly improves the uptake of Ashwagandha’s active compounds. This exclusive feature sets Vitakruid’s formula apart from other Ashwagandha products. -
Supported by Scientific Research
KSM-66® is the result of more than 14 years of scientific research and has undergone over 20 clinical studies to confirm its efficacy and safety. -
Free from Unnecessary Additives
This supplement contains no GMOs, gluten, yeast, sugar, artificial colourings, flavourings, or preservatives—unlike many other products that rely on fillers or additives that compromise purity.

In response, the industry association NPN released a safety statement, aiming to provide consumers with reliable, scientifically substantiated information on the safe use of supplements. Their statement emphasises that Ashwagandha is generally safe when used according to the recommended dosages.
NPN Safety Statement:
• Ashwagandha is considered safe for most users.
• Caution is advised when taking it alongside thyroid medication or antidepressants.
• Its use is not recommended during pregnancy and breastfeeding due to insufficient research.
