Additionally, it may help maintain normal memory and executive function.*7,8 In athletes, KSM-66 may help maintain healthy cardiorespiratory endurance as measured by VO2 max and may help support healthy muscle mass and strength during resistance training.*9,10 In addition, the KSM-66 extract may help support healthy sleep quality, healthy sexual function in men and women, normal spermatogenic activity, and normal thyroid function.*11-15
