LABIFY Energy Libido+ - capsules, 60 capsules

The Energy line product is a dietary supplement from the LABIFY brand in a package of 60 capsules. Four plant-mineral ingredients in a daily portion: forskolin from Indian nettle, maca, tribulus, and zinc. The daily portion is 2 capsules daily, in the morning or around training, with a meal containing fats, which with this packaging provides 30 days of use, so the stock calculation is done automatically.

The manufacturer targets this preparation at men and notes that individuals with hormonal disorders should consult their use with a doctor. The composition and dosage come from the manufacturer’s product catalog, and the manufacturer declares independent laboratory tests at J.S. Hamilton, compliance with the declared composition, and the absence of heavy metals.

The manufacturer is LABIFY Sp. z o.o., Olivia Centre, Gdańsk, and the preparation belongs to its catalog divided into lines: body and immunity, energy and endurance, mind and calm, intestines and microbiome, single vitamins, and minerals and functional gummies.

Ingredients

Active ingredients in a daily portion, according to the manufacturer’s catalog:

• Extract from Indian nettle (forskolin) 450 mg
• Maca extract 160 mg
• Tribulus terrestris 100 mg
• Zinc 11.8 mg (118% RWS)

The ingredient with the largest mass is 450 mg of extract from Indian nettle, for which the manufacturer provides the name of the marker compound, forskolin, but not the degree of standardization, so it is unknown how much of it is in those 450 mg. The same applies to maca and tribulus. Zinc is an exception here: 11.8 mg is 118% of the reference intake value, and for the three plant extracts, such a reference value is not provided.

Three entries in such lists are worth knowing how to read, as they determine the comparison of preparations. The abbreviation RWS stands for reference intake value, which is the daily amount taken as a reference point on food labels; values above one hundred percent are not a mistake and are the norm for some vitamins, but they only speak about the ratio to that point, not about how much you specifically need.

The percentage next to the plant extract usually indicates standardization or purity of the raw material, not the content per portion, and these two things are often confused. The trade name of the raw material written with a trademark indicates a specific material from a specific supplier, not a general category of the ingredient.

It is also worth looking at the chemical form, as the same ingredient name hides different forms: vitamin B6 occurs as P-5-P or as pyridoxine hydrochloride, magnesium as citrate, malate, or oxide, and chromium as picolinate or chloride. The manufacturer provides these forms in the list, and they, along with the actual weight, determine what you are dealing with.

Specification

How to use

For whom

The manufacturer targets this preparation at individuals who meet one of the three descriptions below, and it is worth treating them as a starting point, not a promise. The manufacturer targets this preparation at men and notes that individuals with hormonal disorders should consult their use with a doctor. The formula is ready, and you cannot change the proportions, so if you care about controlling a single ingredient, separate preparations will give you more freedom. In return, you get one package instead of several.

One intake scheme remains to remember. A 30-day package is a period in which you can usually assess whether the preparation suits you, without committing to it for longer. It is also worth checking if any of the ingredients duplicate what you are already taking separately, as with complex formulas, it is easy to unintentionally double the dose.

The product is a dietary supplement, does not replace a varied diet or specialist advice, and is not intended to diagnose any health condition.

• You want to maintain energy and motivation at a constant level
• You are strength training and striving for better endurance
