Ingredients explained
Red maca root (Lepidium meyenii)
Maca provides macamides, macaenes, and amino acids that may support energy metabolism and stress response via effects on the hypothalamic–pituitary axis and cellular nutrient utilization.
Caution: May be stimulating for some; start with a lower dose to gauge tolerance, especially if sensitive to caffeine-like effects even though maca is non-caffeinated.
Piperine (from organic black pepper extract, 95% piperine)
Piperine may enhance intestinal absorption by influencing digestive enzymes and transporters, potentially increasing bioavailability of co‑ingested compounds.
Caution: May affect how the body absorbs some supplements or medications; separate timing if sensitivity to pepper extracts or interactions are a concern.
How they work together
Red maca supplies plant compounds associated with vitality and resilience, while piperine supports uptake in the gut to help more of the active compounds be absorbed. Together they address both the supply of actives and their bioavailability.
