How to use NOW KSM-66 Ashwagandha

When to take it

Take one capsule daily, in the evening or morning. Give it several weeks of consistent use before deciding whether it helps.

How to take it

Each veg capsule provides 600mg of KSM-66 root extract, the serving most KSM-66 research used. Take it with food and water. If you're new to ashwagandha, some people start every other day for the first week to see how they feel.

What to combine it with

For a calm-but-alert daytime routine, some people use L-Theanine; for evenings, ashwagandha on its own is the usual choice. Avoid doubling up with other products that already contain ashwagandha, which is common in stress and sleep blends.

About Ashwagandha

Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is a shrub whose root has been used for centuries in Ayurvedic medicine as a tonic. It's usually described as an adaptogen, and most modern research looks at stress and sleep, using extracts standardized for compounds called withanolides.

Typical dosage: Root extracts such as KSM-66 are typically taken at 300mg to 600mg per day, once or split into two doses, often in the evening. Studies usually ran for 6 to 12 weeks, so judge it over weeks rather than days.

Things to know: Not for use during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Talk to a doctor first if you have a thyroid condition, liver problems or an autoimmune condition, or take sedatives or medication for blood sugar or blood pressure. Rare cases of liver injury have been reported, so stop and seek advice if you notice yellowing skin or dark urine.
