UFIRST Ashwagandha KSM-66® – product detail
UFIRST Ashwagandha KSM-66®
You can't stop stress. But you can change how much energy it takes from you.
UFIRST Ashwagandha KSM-66® combines two standardized ashwagandha extracts in one carefully designed daily dose. You get a total of 1 100 mg of extracts and precisely declared 55 mg of withanolides – characteristic plant compounds that indicate the actual strength of the extract.
The formula contains 1 000 mg of standardized ashwagandha extract and 100 mg of the patented KSM-66® extract. Two plant-based capsules a day provide simple support for periods when performance is expected from you, but both your mind and body need to find balance.
No measuring powder. No extra caffeine dose. No vague indication of how much active compounds you are actually taking.
How it works
Common products contain either ashwagandha powder or a single extract. UFIRST Ashwagandha KSM-66® combines two standardized ingredients: 1 000 mg of ashwagandha extract standardized to 5% withanolides and 100 mg of patented KSM-66® extract, which also provides 5% withanolides.
Ashwagandha is one of the best-known adaptogenic plants, traditionally used during periods of increased physical and mental stress. With a standardized extract, not only the total weight but also the amount of characteristic compounds is guaranteed, so you know exactly how many withanolides each dose contains.
For the days when you handle everything. You just have had enough.
You open your eyes in the morning and your mind is already going through the list of things you must not forget. School or work, family, deadlines, messages, responsibilities. You function all day, but in the evening you can't simply switch off and relax.
Or perhaps you train regularly, want to improve yourself and need your body to handle not only performance, but also the recovery that follows.
These are exactly the kinds of periods when people turn to ashwagandha. Two capsules a day. One simple step. And a formula where you know exactly how much extract and how many withanolides you are taking.

Ashwagandha KSM-66®
The formula is complemented by 100 mg of patented KSM-66® extract, which also provides 5% withanolides. KSM-66® is made exclusively from the root of ashwagandha and is described by its manufacturer as a full-spectrum root extract. Its production uses a water-based extraction process without alcohol or synthetic solvents.
KSM-66® is also one of the forms of ashwagandha that has been used in clinical studies focusing, for example, on stress, physical fitness, strength, endurance and sexual health.

Withanolides
Withanolides are characteristic plant compounds that indicate the actual strength of ashwagandha extract. Their amount, not just the total weight in milligrams, reflects the quality of the raw material.
Both extracts in UFIRST Ashwagandha KSM-66® are standardized to 5% withanolides. In a daily dose of two capsules, you therefore get precisely declared 55 mg of withanolides. No reference intake value has been established for withanolides.
What you should know about ashwagandha
Ashwagandha and stress – when your mind can't switch off
Stress is more than just a bad day. When it persists for weeks, it can affect sleep, energy, mood, appetite and your ability to rest. Ashwagandha is one of the best-known adaptogenic plants, traditionally used during periods of increased physical and mental strain, when the body has to constantly adapt to changing demands.
In randomized studies, standardized extracts have been associated with reduced perceived stress and, in some cases, lower cortisol levels. However, ashwagandha is not a tablet that removes the cause of stress or instantly "switches you off." It makes the most sense as a regular part of a routine that also includes sleep, exercise and genuine rest.
A calmer night starts during the day
Do you know the feeling when you are physically tired, but your mind keeps replaying conversations, tasks and everything that awaits you tomorrow? The connection between stress and sleep is one of the reasons people often turn to ashwagandha.
Ashwagandha does not contain melatonin and is not a conventional sleep aid. It is more suitable for someone looking for longer-term support during periods when stress and inner tension interfere with their usual evening routine.
Not just mental support, but recovery too
Ashwagandha is not only interesting for people dealing with mental strain. Standardized root extracts, including KSM-66®, have also been studied in connection with strength training, physical fitness, endurance and recovery.
Of course, ashwagandha cannot replace regular training, sufficient protein or quality sleep. For an active person, however, it can be part of a routine focused not only on performance, but also on how the body and mind cope with strain.
Powder, standard extract, or KSM-66®?
Root powder is the least processed form. It contains the entire ground raw material, but the amount of withanolides can vary between batches. To achieve a higher amount, several grams of powder are usually consumed, and some people may not like its taste.
Standardized extract states not only the total weight but also the guaranteed proportion of selected compounds. This gives you a better idea of what each dose actually contains.
KSM-66® is a branded extract made exclusively from the root and standardized to 5% withanolides. Its advantages include a defined composition, a controlled manufacturing process and use in a number of clinical studies.

Frequently asked questions
What are the most commonly searched benefits of ashwagandha?
Ashwagandha is most commonly sought in connection with stress, mental balance, sleep, physical performance, recovery and sexual vitality. Most clinical evidence is available primarily for stress and sleep.
What does standardization to 5% withanolides mean?
Standardization ensures that each daily dose contains a predetermined amount of these characteristic compounds. It is a more precise indicator than the weight of the powder or extract alone.
What exactly is KSM-66®?
KSM-66® is a patented extract made exclusively from the root of ashwagandha. It is standardized and uses a water-based extraction process without alcohol or synthetic solvents.
Does ashwagandha help with stress?
Several clinical studies with standardized extracts have recorded a reduction in perceived stress. Some studies have also found a reduction in cortisol levels. This does not mean that ashwagandha eliminates the cause of stress or replaces professional care. It can be part of a broader routine during demanding periods.
Does ashwagandha lower cortisol?
The result depends on the specific extract, dose, duration of use and the individual. Ashwagandha is not a treatment for a hormonal disorder or a means of specifically lowering elevated laboratory cortisol levels without medical evaluation.
Will ashwagandha help me sleep better?
Some clinical studies have reported improvements in sleep quality, sleep duration or falling asleep. However, ashwagandha does not contain melatonin and is not a conventional sleeping pill.
How long does it take to notice an effect?
Ashwagandha is not a fast-acting stimulant. Some people may notice a change sooner, while most people may notice it after approximately four to eight weeks of regular use.
Is it better to take ashwagandha in the morning or evening?
It depends on how you respond to it. As part of a daily routine during a demanding period, morning use may work well for you. If you experience relaxation or drowsiness after taking it, move it to the evening. Both capsules can be taken together or the daily dose can be divided.
Does ashwagandha make you sleepy?
It is not a sedative, but it may cause drowsiness in some people. Others take it during the day without any feeling of sedation. It is therefore advisable to try the first doses on a day when you can observe your own reaction. If it makes you sleepy, do not take it before driving or performing other activities that require full attention.
Is it suitable for sports?
Ashwagandha is also popular among active people. KSM-66® extract has been studied in connection with strength training, physical performance, endurance and recovery.
Does the product contain caffeine?
No. Ashwagandha KSM-66® contains no caffeine or caffeine-containing plant ingredients.
Can I combine it with coffee or magnesium?
The formula contains neither caffeine nor magnesium, so there is no automatic duplication of these substances. Ashwagandha can generally be incorporated into a routine that also includes coffee or a separate magnesium supplement.
Who should not take ashwagandha?
The product is not intended for children, pregnant or breastfeeding women. Consult your doctor before use if you have thyroid disease, an autoimmune condition, liver disease, are planning surgery or take regular medication.
Can I combine it with medication?
Ashwagandha may affect the effects of certain medicines, including medicines for the thyroid, diabetes, blood pressure, immune system, epilepsy or medicines with sedative effects. If you take medication regularly, consult your doctor or pharmacist before combining it with ashwagandha.
