Official title
A Prospective, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo Controlled Clinical Study to Evaluate the Effects of KSM- 66 Ashwagandha® Capsule (300 mg) on Skin and Hair Health in Healthy Men and Women
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Hair and skin play major roles in protecting the body, and maintaining their health is essential. Poor hair and skin health have become increasingly common due to the stress associated with modern lifestyles. Effective and time-efficient treatments for hair and skin health remain limited. Although hair loss, baldness, and skin issues are not life-threatening, managing these conditions is important because of the psychological and social complications-such as anxiety and depression-they can cause. There is an unmet need for therapies that provide safe and long-term improvements in hair and skin health. Many individuals seek Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) to identify natural and effective options for these conditions. Adaptogens such as Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) have long been studied for their potential to reduce stress and modulate cortisol levels in the body. Reducing stress may help prevent inflammation, a common contributor to hair shedding and loss. Ashwagandha also contains antioxidants and amino acids that may strengthen the hair and minimize breakage. Traditionally, Ashwagandha has been recognized for its multiple health benefits, including support for hair and skin wellness. However, there remains limited scientific evidence to substantiate these traditional claims, underscoring the need for controlled clinical evaluation.
