The Promise

What this is — Triple-extract Peruvian maca

A vegetarian capsule blend of three maca (Lepidium meyenii) tuber extracts cultivated in the highlands of Peru.

Balanced extract blend

Each capsule delivers three distinct maca extracts: 225 mg standardized to 0.6% macamides and macaenes, 225 mg standardized to 0.2% glucosinolates, and a 100 mg 4:1 extract.

Vegetarian, hypoallergenic delivery

Capsules use cellulose vegetarian capsule material with hypoallergenic plant fiber (pine cellulose) and ascorbyl palmitate.

Suggested dosing

Suggested use is 1–2 capsules daily in divided doses, taken with or between meals.

Traditional and clinical background

Maca from Peru has a long traditional use for stamina and reproductive support and has been studied for effects that appear independent of altering hormone balance.*

Why It Works

Why this formulation matters — Specific extract standardizations and combined profile

The formula combines standardized fractions and an extract ratio to capture multiple maca constituents valued in research and tradition.

01

Macamide and macaene standardization

One extract is standardized to contain 0.6% macamides and macaenes, preserving compounds commonly cited in maca research.

02

Glucosinolate-standardized extract

A second extract is standardized to contain 0.2% glucosinolates to ensure consistent presence of sulfur-containing constituents.

03

Concentrated 4:1 extract

A 4:1 extract is included to provide a concentrated profile of additional tuber constituents in a smaller dose.

04

Whole-tuber source

All extracts are derived from Lepidium meyenii tuber, preserving the plant-based source across the blend.
