Dynveo — Organic Maca 500mg 60 capsules

Maca (Lepidium meyenii Walp.) is a tuber from the Brassicaceae family, grown at high altitudes in the Peruvian Andes. It belongs to the category of so-called adaptogenic plants in traditional phytotherapy, although this term does not constitute an authorized health claim at the European level. The Dynveo formula stands out for three technical points. Firstly, the botanical species used is Lepidium meyenii Walp (and not L. peruvianum), which is the historical Andean species most referenced in scientific literature. Secondly, the 11:1 concentration and aqueous extraction process preserve the full spectrum of active molecules (macamides, macaenes, glucosinolates, polyphenols) without organic solvents. Thirdly, hot water extraction guarantees the complete elimination of alkaloids, the presence of which is a documented safety concern for uncontrolled maca extracts on the market. Controlled trials with placebo groups have explored fatigue, physical performance, and male sexual well-being. These studies focus on maca extracts and not specifically on this finished product, and none of these indications have a health claim authorized for maca by EU Regulation No 432/2012. Main precautions: maca has modulating properties on the endocrine axis (studied particularly on estrogens and androgens). It is therefore not recommended in cases of hormonal treatment (birth control pill, HRT, hormone-dependent treatment), thyroid pathology (glucosinolates can interact with thyroid function at high doses), and during pregnancy or breastfeeding without medical advice. Populations suffering from hormone-dependent cancers (breast, prostate) should avoid this product without medical validation.
