Each vegetable capsule provides 350 mg of a 10:1 extract of the maca hypocotyl, equivalent to 3500 mg of dried root, so one capsule a day replaces more than a teaspoon of maca powder. A bottle of 90 is a three-month supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaca (\u003cem\u003eLepidium meyenii\u003c\/em\u003e) is a root vegetable grown at 4,000 metres in the Peruvian Andes, where it has been eaten and traded for centuries as a staple food and a traditional tonic for energy, fertility and vitality. The part used is the hypocotyl, the swollen root-stem that sits just below the leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaca comes in several colours, determined by the skin of the hypocotyl: yellow, which makes up most of every harvest, red and black. Black is the least common, and in Peruvian tradition it is the colour most associated with men’s vitality and stamina. Research has found the colours differ in their glucosinolates and macamides, the compounds thought to drive maca’s effects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHealth Canada recognises two uses for this formula. It helps support the emotional aspects of sexual health, which is consistent with small human trials in which maca improved self-reported libido and sexual desire. It also helps support healthy mood balance during menopause, where studies in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women have reported improvements in mood and feelings of anxiety. Effects build gradually over weeks rather than hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 10:1 extraction concentrates maca so the daily dose fits into one small capsule, without the earthy taste or the volume of a powder. The formula is vegan and non-GMO, free from gluten, dairy, soy, wheat, yeast, sugar and artificial additives, and licensed by Health Canada under NPN 80128546.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho CanPrev Black Maca Is For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdults looking for natural support for libido and the emotional side of sexual health, and women going through menopause who want help keeping their mood steady. Black maca is a popular choice among men, while the menopause use makes it equally relevant for women.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA good fit for anyone who has found maca powder too bulky or too earthy to take consistently. Directions call for one capsule a day for up to six weeks, with a healthcare practitioner’s guidance for longer use, so it suits people who want a defined course rather than an open-ended daily habit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCanPrev Black Maca Features and Benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e350 mg Black Maca Extract\u003c\/strong\u003e — 10:1 hypocotyl extract equivalent to 3500 mg of dried maca root per capsule.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSupports Sexual Health\u003c\/strong\u003e — Helps to support the emotional aspects of sexual health, including desire and libido.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMenopause Mood Support\u003c\/strong\u003e — Helps to support healthy mood balance during menopause.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe Rarest Maca Colour\u003c\/strong\u003e — Black maca is the least common phenotype, traditionally linked to vitality and stamina.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOne Capsule a Day\u003c\/strong\u003e — A concentrated extract with none of the bulk or taste of maca powder.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClean, Vegan Formula\u003c\/strong\u003e — Non-GMO; free from gluten, dairy, soy, wheat, yeast, sugar and artificial additives.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHealth Canada Licensed\u003c\/strong\u003e — NPN 80128546; 90 vegetable capsules, a three-month supply.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-section\" id=\"faq-canprev-black-maca-90-vegetable-capsules\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003e➕ What is CanPrev Black Maca?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"padding-left:25px; margin-top:5px; padding-bottom:10px;\"\u003eA one-a-day capsule of 10:1 black maca root extract that helps support the emotional aspects of sexual health and healthy mood balance during menopause.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003e➕ What does 10:1 extract mean?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"padding-left:25px; margin-top:5px; padding-bottom:10px;\"\u003eTen parts of dried maca root were concentrated into one part extract, so 350 mg of extract equals 3500 mg of dried root.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003e➕ How is black maca different from yellow maca?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"padding-left:25px; margin-top:5px; padding-bottom:10px;\"\u003eThe colours come from the skin of the root and differ in their mix of glucosinolates and macamides.
