Maca is a root vegetable native to the Andes region of South America and is rich in nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. It is also a good source of fiber. Maca has been used in traditional medicine to improve energy, stamina, and sexual function. It is also purported to help to improve mood, reduce anxiety, and reduce the symptoms of menopause. Dietary supplements containing maca utilize the root of the plant and are sometimes standardized for two types of compounds found in it, macaenes and macamides.

Damiana (Turnera diffusa) is a small, aromatic shrub native to Central and South America, known for its historical use in traditional medicine and as an aphrodisiac. The plant produces small, yellow flowers and has a long history of traditional use among indigenous peoples. Damiana leaves are commonly dried and brewed as an herbal tea, believed to have mild stimulant and relaxant properties.

Rhodiola is a type of plant native to the Arctic regions of Europe and Asia. It is also known as "golden root" or "arctic root." The roots and rhizomes of Rhodiola are commonly used in dietary supplements for their purported effects as an 'adaptogen', which are used to improve physical and mental performance, reduce fatigue, and enhance the ability to cope with stress. Rhodiola is believed to work by increasing the production of certain chemicals in the brain (e.g., serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine) that are involved in mood and energy regulation. Rhodiola supplements are often standardized to a specific amount of their rosavin and salidroside content.
