Beyond The Label: Why Transparency Matters In Pet Products

It’s easy to get excited about the many health benefits of ashwagandha. After all, this adaptogenic herb has been used for over 4000 years. However, choosing the right ashwagandha is key to ensure safety and quality. Let’s take a closer look at KSM-66 ashwagandha from seed to shelf to see why transparency matters in pet products for everyone from manufacturers and vets, to retailers and consumers. And why KSM-66 Ashwagandha is the most trusted ashwagandha in the world today.

Organic Farms in the Right Location

Unlike many companies that rely on external suppliers, KSM-66 Ashwagandha is actively involved in every stage of production, guaranteeing safety, quality, and full transparency. The KSM-66 difference begins with the seeds and soil. Poor growing conditions can diminish ashwagandha’s therapeutic effectiveness. KSM-66 Ashwagandha is grown on their organic farms located in Rajasthan, India which has the world’s best conditions for growing ashwagandha.

The KSM-66 team of dedicated farmers select only the highest quality organic seeds for planting. Once the ashwagandha is planted, the soil is regularly tested to ensure ideal health and fertility of the plants. The plants are grown without the use of pesticides or chemicals, with a focus on sustainability.

Quality and Sustainability Go Hand-in-Hand

Once planted, KSM-66 Ashwagandha is closely monitored to ensure it is harvested at the height of its maturity, which ensures quality and potency. The processing is done in-house, and strictly adheres to WHO and US-FDA guidelines on GMP (Good manufacturing practice). The roots are processed using an environmentally-friendly extraction procedure that utilizes water rather than chemicals. This process ensures that the biocompounds are preserved.

While other manufacturers may use both the leaves and roots, KSM-66 Ashwagandha processes only the root of the plant, known scientifically and traditionally as the sole part of the plant with true efficacy — and composts the leaves. This commitment to quality is just one of the many reasons why many consider KSM-66 Ashwagandha the best in the world.

During the processing, KSM-66 Ashwagandha and its manufacturing undergoes the most extensive inspections and safety testing in the industry to ensure purity, potency and safety. This testing includes but is not limited to:

• Microbiological testing
• Pesticide analysis
• Bioactive Analysis

These high standards have earned KSM-66 45 global quality and safety certifications, the most of any botanical. Once testing is complete, the powdered herb is ready for world-wide distribution to be included in quality products.

World-Class Ashwagandha

The journey of KSM-66 Ashwagandha can be tracked through TagOne, a leading traceability management system. This means that KSM-66 has complete accountability from farm to finish.
