Maca Extract 4:1 Root 500 mg – Daily Energy, Hormonal Balance, Physical Endurance and Mental Clarity

Maca extract (Lepidium meyenii) is a traditional adaptogenic tonic from the Andes, valued for its ability to support vitality, endurance and hormonal balance. Swanson's concentrated formula uses a 4:1 root extract, equivalent to 2,000 mg of fresh root per capsule, for consistent action and easy integration into daily routine. Maca is recognized for its supply of phytonutrients (macamides, macaenes, polyphenols) that support cellular energy, stress adaptation and cognitive performance, while contributing to overall comfort and tone.

Detailed Benefits of Maca Extract 4:1

• Supporting Daily Energy and Endurance

Maca is frequently described as "energy food," due to its impact on perception of vitality and endurance.

The 4:1 extract:
✅ Contributes to a sensation of stable energy throughout the day.
✅ Supports physical endurance in endurance activities or busy days.
✅ Helps with perceived recovery after effort, due to the synergy of phytonutrients.

This type of "constant energy" is useful both in demanding office periods and in light training or movement routines.

• Adaptogen for Stress and Fatigue Management

As an adaptogen, Maca helps the body adapt to modern life's stress factors.

Through its global action:
✅ Supports physiological balance of stress response.
✅ Contributes to attenuating the sensation of mental and physical fatigue.
✅ Helps maintain balanced disposition and emotional tone.

A healthy adaptive response to stress translates into better focus, clear decisions and a more sustainable lifestyle.

• Physiological Hormonal Balance

Maca is traditionally used to support hormonal balance in adults.

Without providing hormones, but through nutrients and plant compounds:
✅ Contributes to harmonizing physiological cycles and associated comfort.
✅ Supports vitality and daily dynamics in both sexes.
✅ Helps maintain good general tone during periods with rhythm or schedule changes.

This gentle support is appreciated for its non-stimulant character and for its integrability into daily routines.

• Cognitive Performance, Focus and Mental Clarity

Energy state and stress resilience directly influence executive functions.

Maca:
✅ Supports mental clarity and concentration capacity in prolonged tasks.
✅ Contributes to reducing "mental fog" associated with fatigue.
✅ Helps maintain a pleasant cognitive rhythm, suitable for office work or study.

When energy is stable, information processing becomes more fluid, and productivity can naturally increase.

• Energy Metabolism and "Clean Vitality"

Native nutrients from maca root support the biochemical pathways of energy metabolism:
✅ Contributes to efficient utilization of energy substrates (carbohydrates, lipids).
✅ Helps with a sensation of "clean energy," without sudden oscillations.
✅ Supports constant tone between meals and throughout the workday.

This profile is suitable for people seeking stable productivity and a natural work rhythm.

• Support for Physical Performance and Motivation

In the context of light or moderate training, maca:
✅ Favors perception of better endurance in repeated sessions.
✅ Helps maintain motivation and consistency in the movement plan.
✅ Contributes to more pleasant perceived post-effort recovery, in association with hydration and correct nutrition.

This botanical anchor is useful for beginners, but also for those returning to training after a break.

• Comfort and General Well-Being

Maca is associated with holistic well-being:
✅ Supports daily tone and positive disposition.
✅ Helps maintain restful sleep when routine is coherent.
✅ Contributes to the feeling of "balance" between mental and physical tasks.

In daily life, small improvements in general comfort have a cumulative impact on performance.

• Skin, Hair and Nails – Nutritional Support from Within

Through the supply of polyphenols and plant compounds, maca:
✅ Contributes to protection against daily oxidative stressors.
✅ Supports the cared-for appearance of skin, in synergy with an antioxidant-rich diet.
✅ Helps maintain physiological resistance of nails and scalp comfort.

This internal support complements topical care and healthy habits.

• Digestive Comfort and Dietary Integration

Maca root is a traditional "food root" in the Andes.

In the 4:1 extract variant:
✅ Integrates easily into daily routine, without digestive burden.
✅ Contributes to a perception of "lightness" on days with demanding schedules.
✅ Pairs well with balanced meals rich in quality proteins, vegetables and good fats.

Harmonized digestion is correlated with more constant energy and mental clarity.

• Recommended Nutritional Synergies

Maca works well alongside:
— B-vitamin complex and magnesium: support for energy metabolism.
— Coenzyme Q10 and L-carnitine: mitochondrial support for effort and vitality.
— Omega-3 (EPA/DHA): membrane balance and physiological stress response.
— Rhodiola or ginseng (in advanced programs): targeted adaptogenicity for intense periods.

These associations potentiate the sensation of balance, both mentally and physically.
