200 mg caffeine. Peruvian maca. One softgel.

Each softgel contains 200 mg of caffeine.

That's a meaningful caffeine dose. FDA notes that caffeine content in coffee and energy drinks varies considerably and cites 400 mg per day as an amount not generally associated with negative effects for most healthy adults. That is not a recommended daily target, and individual sensitivity varies.

Maca (Lepidium meyenii) is a root traditionally cultivated in the Peruvian Andes.

Each softgel contains 250 mg of Peruvian maca root powder as a complementary botanical ingredient alongside caffeine.

We do not claim that 250 mg of maca reproduces outcomes from studies using substantially larger amounts.

No.

Caffeine is a central nervous system stimulant. Maca is a botanical ingredient and does not function like caffeine.

The stimulant effect of this product comes from its 200 mg caffeine dose.

Take one softgel daily with at least 8 fl oz of water, with or without food.

Because caffeine can affect sleep for hours afterward, take it earlier in the day if you're caffeine-sensitive.

Be careful.

One softgel already contains 200 mg caffeine. Coffee, tea, energy drinks, pre-workouts, some foods, supplements, and medications can substantially increase your total caffeine intake.

Count caffeine from all sources.

Current human research does not establish maca as a testosterone booster.

In a randomized trial using 1,500 or 3,000 mg per day - far more maca than this product contains - serum testosterone did not increase compared with placebo.

We would not market Smarter Caffeine + Maca as a testosterone supplement.

We don't claim that it will.

There is no good basis for saying that the 250 mg of maca changes caffeine's pharmacokinetics, converts it into sustained-release caffeine, or guarantees a particular landing.

Individual caffeine responses vary.

Caffeine has substantial human research examining exercise and physical performance, but responses depend on dose, body weight, exercise type, training status, and individual tolerance.

The evidence for maca is much less certain, and most maca performance research uses doses substantially higher than the 250 mg in this formula. A recent randomized study using 2,000 mg per day found no significant performance benefit versus placebo in trained basketball players.

We would not promise improved endurance from this product.

It can.

Caffeine promotes alertness and can interfere with sleep in some people for hours after consumption.

If caffeine affects your sleep, take it earlier in the day and avoid using it near bedtime.

The 477 mg of MCT oil from coconuts is the oil carrier inside the liquid softgel.

We do not claim that this small amount provides a meaningful energy boost, makes the caffeine stronger, accelerates absorption, or turns it into a timed-release product.

Consult a healthcare professional before use if you are pregnant, trying to become pregnant, breastfeeding, taking prescription medication, have a medical condition, or have been advised to limit caffeine.

Do not use if you are particularly sensitive to caffeine.

The softgel contains bovine gelatin, so the product is not vegetarian or vegan.
