Cosma Pure Herbs Maca - ekstrakt w kroplach, 30 ml

Maca from the Cosma Pure Herbs line is an extract from maca root (Lepidium meyenii) suspended in green hemp seed oil, in a 30 ml bottle with a dropper. Instead of powder mixed in a glass or capsules, you get drops that you measure yourself and hold under your tongue for a moment. In one dose, the distributor states 12 mg of maca root extract and 174.3 mg of hemp oil, which contains 34.9 mg of omega-3 acids and 104.6 mg of omega-6 acids. The ingredient list is short and consists of three items: oil, root extract, and rosemary herb extract. These three items exhaust the list, and the manufacturer describes the entire line as gluten-free and lactose-free. The packaging is defined by the manufacturer as 600 drops and at least 150 doses, with a recommended range of 1 to 6 doses daily. Once opened, you use the bottle within 60 days.

Ingredients

Declared composition on the label, calculated per dose:

Green oil from hemp seeds - 174.3 mg, including omega-3 fatty acids 34.9 mg and omega-6 fatty acids 104.6 mg
Ekstrakt z korzenia maca - 12 mg
Extract from rosemary herb - a technological function ingredient, a natural antioxidant protecting the oil formula
Alcohol-free, sugar-free, flavor-free, and without artificial fillers in the ingredient list

These values refer to a single dose, not the entire bottle or the maximum serving. With a range of 1 to 6 doses per day, the amount of extract depends on how many drops you measure. A low number for the extract does not mean that there is little in the bottle: 12 mg is the mass corresponding to one sublingual dose, and the packaging is defined by the manufacturer as containing no less than 150 doses. In this line, maca belongs to variants with a lower extract mass and a higher proportion of carrier oil; both items in the table change inversely to each other, and this is evident when comparing several variants side by side. All masses are given in milligrams per dose, so comparing two items comes down to comparing one row of the table. The third item on the list is the extract of rosemary herb, which in this line serves a technological function and protects the oil formula from oxidation. The table also clearly shows a predominance of omega-6 acids over omega-3, which is a natural characteristic of hemp seed oil.

For whom

This is a suggestion for adults who want to supplement their daily diet with plant extract and prefer drops over powdered root mixed in a glass. Maca in the form of powdered root has a strong, earthy taste and requires measuring with a scoop; here you get a measured oil form in drops, with no alcohol in the ingredient list. You can adjust the dose smoothly, from one dose to six, and the 30 ml bottle fits in a cosmetics bag and does not require refrigeration, so it can easily travel with you. If you are comparing variants of this line, maca belongs to items with a smaller extract mass per dose - this is information worth comparing with the price. The product is intended solely for adults. Do not use it during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and if you are taking medications regularly, consult your doctor beforehand. If you prefer capsules or ready-made sachets, this form is unlikely to convince you.

Frequently asked questions

How does this extract differ from maca powder?

In form, method of measurement, and taste. You mix powdered root in liquid and measure it with a scoop, while here you measure drops and hold them under your tongue for a moment.

How to measure one dose?

With a dropper, after shaking the bottle well - the extract is suspended in the oil, so without this, the dose will not be homogeneous.

How long does one package last?
