What Maca Root is
Maca (Lepidium meyenii) is a root vegetable grown in the high Andes of Peru and traditionally used for energy, stamina and vitality. It is eaten as a food and sold as a powder or extract.
In the SodaBurn formula it is the 'vitality' ingredient rather than a weight ingredient. The site names it without an amount.

What the research looks like
Small studies have looked at maca for sexual desire, mood and energy, and results are limited and mixed. Nothing in the research supports a weight-loss claim.
Treat it as a supporting ingredient that rounds out a daily-vitality story.
Safety and who should be careful
Maca is generally well tolerated in food amounts. People with a thyroid condition or a hormone-sensitive condition are often advised to ask a doctor before using concentrated extracts, and anyone who is pregnant or nursing should check with a clinician.
How it fits the rest of the formula
Maca Root is one of six named ingredients. See them all on the ingredient overview, the evidence summary in the beginner guide to ingredients and ingredients and benefits explained. For directions, read the dosage and usage guide.
