- Maca, also known as Lepidium meyenii, is a cruciferous vegetable, meaning it is a part of the cabbage family. In fact, maca contains many of the same isothiocyanate compounds found in famous cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli. Most importantly though, Maca contains a series of N-alkylamide compounds called the macamides, which is where most of the maca benefits come from.
- Our maca extract is standardized to an enormous amount of macamides at 5%! This is much higher than most maca extracts on the market which often do not contain more than 0.6% macamides.
- The macamides quite closely resemble endocannabinoids, and due to this, they also have some fairly pronounced endocannabinoid effects. For example, the macamides can block an enzyme called fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) which breaks down endocannabinoids such as anandamide, 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) and even palmitoylethanolamide (PEA). This means that when we inhibit FAAH, the levels of anandamide, 2-AG and PEA can increase, which increases overall endocannabinoid activity.

Supports Energy Levels and Vitality |
Promotes a Positive MoodThe macamides also modulate endocannabinoid activity by inhibiting FAAH and by directly activating CB1 receptors. In addition to the energizing effects, this increased endocannabinoid activity provides a fantastic mood lift! |
Enhances Endocannabinoid ActivityThe increased endocannabinoid activity with maca also results in a number of other positive effects, the main one being a pain management effect in addition to an appetite stimulating effect which can be very beneficial for individuals who have trouble keeping their appetites up throughout the day! |
Why Take Maca Root?
If you are looking for a natural way to boost your energy levels and mood, while also providing a pleasant pain management effect, then maca is what you are looking for! Maca, otherwise known as Lepidium meyenii, is a part of the Brassicaceae family and is traditionally used in the Peruvian highlands. Traditionally, Maca root was used for mood and immune function, and in Peru it is even a popular food source.

| Energy Stack | Positive Mood Stack | Endocannabinoid Stack | |
| For any workout or even everyday function, you need to begin with the energy to see you through. This is where Maca and Cordyceps Mushroom come in! With additional energy support, Cordyceps Mushroom is the perfect pair with maca! | Kava is also a great modulator of the endocannabinoid system, and adding in the GABAergic effects from kava and the energizing effects from maca, makes for an incredibly well rounded mood stack! | Maca helps upregulate endocannabinoid activity by inhibiting FAAH and directly activating CB1 receptors. Rephyll however, does a great job of activating CB2 receptors, stacking results in a very comprehensive endocannabinoid stack! |
