NOW Foods Maca 500 mg Capsules

Maca is a root traditionally used as food in the Andes. The label identifies it as Lepidium meyenii and supplies 500 mg in each capsule, with the root itself as the active ingredient.

This formula places maca in a measured capsule instead of a flavored drink powder or a multi-herb blend. The two bottle sizes change the number of capsules supplied while keeping the strength unchanged. NOW directs one capsule one to three times daily, so bottle count and the selected frequency are separate considerations when following the product directions.
