Main Ingredients

Maca Root

Lepidium Meyenii

Andean root for clean vitality, balanced mood, and cycle ease.

Balances hormone levels naturally
Supports healthy fertility & sperm count
Elevates libido and improves sexual drive

Maca Root

Lepidium Meyenii

Origin:
Maca Root (Lepidium meyenii) is an Andean brassica cultivated at high altitude in Peru and traditionally used as a food-tonic for vitality, fertility, and libido. Modern supplements use gelatinized root powders or standardized extracts (often characterized for macamides/macamenes) in capsules or drink blends.

How it works
Maca appears to act centrally (neuroendocrine/adaptogenic) rather than as a direct phytohormone: lipidic constituents (e.g., macamides) and polyphenols may influence HPA-axis tone, monoamine pathways, and nitric-oxide/endothelial function. Human trials often report benefits in sexual function, mood, and well-being without changing serum sex hormones, consistent with a regulatory—not replacement—effect.

Top 5 Clinically Supported Benefits

1) Hormonal Health (balance without hormone shifts)
Randomized trials in men and in peri/menopausal women report improvements in well-being, sexual function, and menopausal symptoms with maca vs placebo, typically without significant changes in testosterone or estradiol.
Study chips: Dose 1.5–3.5 g/day (gelatinized powder) or 300–600 mg/day (extract) • Duration 6–12 wk • Endpoints hormones, KMI/menopause scales, well-being • Design DB-RCTs/pilots.

2) Fertility & Libido
Human studies show enhanced sexual desire in healthy adults and improved semen parameters (count/motility) in small male cohorts; women’s sexual function and satisfaction also improved in controlled trials.
Study chips: Dose 1.5–3.0 g/day • Duration 8–12 wk • Endpoints desire indices, IIEF/FSFI, semen analysis • Design DB-RCTs/single-blind.

3) Libido in SSRI Users (adjunct)
Pilot double-blind studies in adults with antidepressant-induced sexual dysfunction found maca (dose-dependent) improved sexual function scores vs placebo.
Study chips: Dose 1.5–3.0 g/day • Duration 8–12 wk • Endpoints ASEX/IIEF/FSFI • Design DB-RCT (pilot).

4) Mood & Energy (menopausal well-being)
DB-RCTs in early postmenopausal women report reduced anxiety/depression scores and better well-being/energy with maca compared to placebo, aligning with adaptogenic mechanisms.
Study chips: Dose 2–3.5 g/day • Duration 6–12 wk • Endpoints KMI, Greene Climacteric, mood scales • Design DB-RCTs.

5) Exercise Performance & Anti-fatigue (preliminary)
Small, controlled trials in recreational athletes suggest improved time-to-exhaustion and perceived stamina, with neutral findings in some trained cohorts; more research needed.
Study chips: Dose 1.5–3.0 g/day • Duration 2–12 wk • Endpoints TTE, time trials, RPE • Design crossover/DB-RCTs; mixed results.

Summary
Across randomized and controlled studies, maca root supports hormonal health (comfort and well-being without altering serum sex hormones), fertility/libido, mood/energy in peri/menopausal women, and may aid exercise performance in some settings. For best translation, use gelatinized root powder or standardized extracts (macamides/polyphenols) consistently for 6–12 weeks at 1.5–3.5 g/day (powder) or 300–600 mg/day (extract).

Why choose Organica

  • Clinically aligned dosing (easy once-daily targets; 6–12 week window).
