What's in it
KSM-66® ashwagandha - Withania somnifera, a plant long associated with Ayurvedic tradition. KSM-66® is a branded, root-only extract produced without alcohol or chemical solvents. Root-only is worth understanding: ashwagandha leaf and ashwagandha root are different material with different composition, and some lower-cost extracts use leaf, or a leaf-and-root mix, because it's cheaper to produce. If a label says only "ashwagandha extract" without specifying the plant part, it's worth asking which.
Rhodiola (Rhodiola rosea) — a cold-climate flowering plant from the mountainous regions of Europe and Asia, with a long history of use in Scandinavia and Russia.
Schisandra (Schisandra chinensis) — known in Chinese as Wu Wei Zi, the "five-flavour berry", so called because it is said to carry sweet, sour, salty, bitter and pungent notes at once.
Holy basil (Ocimum tenuiflorum) — tulsi, a plant with a long history in Indian tradition. A relative of culinary basil, but a distinct species.
Magnesium and zinc — the two nutrients in the formula that carry authorised claims, and the reason the footnotes below exist. Both are present at levels high enough to qualify as "high in": 120mg magnesium is 32% of your daily reference intake, and 10mg zinc is the full 100%. Many botanical blends include minerals at token levels that look good on an ingredient list but sit well below the threshold where any claim can be made. These don't.
How this differs from standard One Nutrition Ashwagandha
The standard One Nutrition Ashwagandha is a single-ingredient KSM-66® product at a lower price. Mega Blend is the broader formulation: the same KSM-66® base, plus three further botanicals and two minerals.
Choose the standard version if you want ashwagandha on its own. Choose Mega Blend if you would otherwise be buying several supplements separately — it's usually the cheaper route to the same shelf.
Common questions
What does KSM-66® actually mean? It's a branded extract, not a synonym for ashwagandha. KSM-66® specifies the plant part (root only), the extraction method (no alcohol, no chemical solvents) and a consistent extract specification batch to batch. Generic "ashwagandha extract" guarantees none of those.
Root or leaf — does it matter? They are different material. Root and leaf differ in composition, and extracts made from one are not interchangeable with the other. KSM-66® is root only.
Can I take it alongside other supplements? It already contains magnesium and zinc, so check the labels of anything else you take to avoid doubling up unintentionally. If you're taking medication or have a medical condition, speak to a healthcare professional first.
Two capsules — can I split them? The daily amount is two capsules with food. Whether you take both together or one at each of two meals is up to you.
