Tube cress capsules N100 – Swanson (maca)

Product Overview

Swanson Maca Root capsules provide 500 mg of Lepidium meyenii root powder per capsule. Maca is a traditional Andean food plant that grows high in the mountains of Peru, where it has been used for centuries as a nourishing root. People usually choose a maca supplement when they want a plant‑based addition to periods of high mental or physical load, reduced stamina, or a more balanced sense of energy.

• High mental or physical load
• Reduced stamina
• More balanced sense of energy

Key Components

Its value comes from the root itself: it naturally contains

• B‑group vitamins and vitamin C
• Iron, calcium and zinc (minerals)
• Amino acids
• Plant compounds including glucosinolates

When to Choose Maca

This product may suit adults who want to include maca in their regimen during

• Busy weeks
• Study periods
• Travel
• Sports activity
• Seasonal dips in vitality

Usage & Convenience

One reason this formula is easy to use is its straightforward composition: plain maca root powder in capsule form, without complicated blends. That matters for people who prefer a single‑ingredient herbal food supplement and want to understand exactly what they are taking. Maca is sometimes called “Peruvian ginseng,” but it is not ginseng and works differently. It belongs to the cruciferous family, which helps explain the presence of glucosinolates — plant substances also found in vegetables such as broccoli and cabbage.

Cautions & Important Notes

A gentle note of caution: maca is a food supplement, not a medicine. Because it naturally contains glucosinolates, people with thyroid concerns should be especially cautious, and anyone using hormone‑related therapy should ask a healthcare professional before use. Pregnancy and breastfeeding also call for individual advice.

• Thyroid concerns – extra caution advised
• Hormone‑related therapy – consult a healthcare professional
• Pregnancy / breastfeeding – seek individual advice
