One ingredient, done properly: KSM-66, the most clinically studied ashwagandha root extract, at a full 500mg per two-gummy serving. That's the actual extract weight in the bottle — not a "30:1 equivalent" multiplication. Root-only, as traditional Ayurvedic practice prescribes; vegan, because our KSM-66 is processed without milk; sugar-free, as it says on the pack. Every batch is third-party tested, with the certificate published on our Lab Reports page.

The detail

What is KSM-66 ashwagandha?

Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is a shrub whose root has been used in Ayurvedic tradition for thousands of years. KSM-66 is a branded extract of that root — and only the root, since traditional Ayurvedic guidance holds that the leaves are not for consumption. It is standardised to at least 5% withanolides, the root's characteristic compounds, measured by HPLC, and it is the most clinically studied ashwagandha extract available, with more than 24 published human trials using it.

We chose it because "ashwagandha" on a label can mean almost anything — whole-plant powder, leaf-inclusive extracts, unnamed concentrates at undisclosed strengths. KSM-66 means one specific, verifiable ingredient at a stated dose.

How to take ashwagandha gummies

Two gummies daily gives the full 500mg serving of KSM-66 root extract — the serving size used in the published research on the ingredient. Take them at whatever time suits you; there's no evidence-based reason to prefer morning over evening, and the honest answer is that daily consistency matters far more than the clock.

Do not exceed the stated intake. Like everything we make, this is a food supplement — not a substitute for a varied diet and healthy lifestyle — and if you're pregnant, breastfeeding or taking medication, speak to your GP or pharmacist before starting.

Why choose Aram's KSM-66 ashwagandha gummies?

Read the small print on ashwagandha gummies and you'll find a common trick: a headline figure like "3,000mg" that turns out to be a much smaller amount of concentrated extract, multiplied up using "30:1 equivalence" maths. It isn't illegal, but we think it's designed to confuse. Aram states the real number — 500mg of KSM-66 root extract per serving. No equivalence, no asterisks.

The rest of the spec holds the same line. Vegan: our KSM-66 is manufactured without milk, which is worth checking on any brand, because traditional KSM-66 processing uses it. Sugar-free, as printed on the pack. Root-only, following the Ayurvedic guidance the ingredient comes from. And third-party testing on every batch, with certificates published — because a branded ingredient on the label still deserves verification in the bottle.

One thing you won't find here is a list of promised feelings. UK authorities currently have ashwagandha health claims "on hold", which means brands aren't permitted to promise outcomes. Many do anyway; we don't. We give you the studied ingredient, at the studied serving, with the paperwork to prove it — and we let you draw your own conclusions from a tradition that's several thousand years older than the gummy.

Questions, answered

"Regular" ashwagandha on a gummy label can mean whole-plant powder, leaf-inclusive extract or an unnamed concentrate at an undisclosed strength. KSM-66 is a specific branded extract: root-only, standardised to at least 5% withanolides, and used in more than 24 published human trials. With KSM-66 you know exactly which ingredient — and how much of it — you're getting.

It means the brand is quoting the weight of raw ashwagandha it would notionally take to produce its extract, not the amount of extract actually in the gummy. "3,000mg equivalent" can describe 100mg of a 30:1 concentrate. We quote only the real figure: 500mg of KSM-66 root extract per two-gummy serving.

Yes. Standard KSM-66 uses milk in its traditional extraction process; ours is the version manufactured without milk, and the gummy base contains no animal-derived ingredients. Sugar-free too, as stated on the pack.

Traditional Ayurvedic guidance uses the ashwagandha root and holds that the leaves are not for consumption. Some cheaper extracts include leaf material because it's less expensive and inflates withanolide numbers. KSM-66 is made exclusively from the root.

Withanolides are the characteristic compounds of the ashwagandha root, and the industry measure of extract strength. KSM-66 is standardised to at least 5% withanolides by HPLC — a quality marker that makes the extract verifiable, batch to batch.

Whenever suits your routine. There's no strong reason to prefer one time of day, and consistency matters more than timing. Two gummies daily is the full 500mg serving; don't exceed the stated intake.

Aram products are food supplements designed to sit alongside a normal diet, but we can't advise on interactions with medication — that's one for your GP or pharmacist, particularly if you're pregnant, breastfeeding or managing a health condition.
