• Cordyceps mushroom extract

• Caffeine

These ingredients are commonly used in energy and performance-oriented supplements.

Active Ingredients – Detailed Breakdown

Amounts listed per 1 gummy (5.4 g serving).

1. Organic Cordyceps Mushroom 8:1 Extract – 100 mg

Cordyceps is a functional mushroom traditionally used to support energy, physical performance and stamina.

Potential wellness benefits:

• May support natural energy production.

• May help support physical endurance and stamina.

• Traditionally used to support respiratory and oxygen utilization.

• May support exercise performance and recovery.

• Contains naturally occurring compounds being studied for their antioxidant properties.

What does 8:1 extract mean?

An 8:1 extract means approximately eight parts of starting mushroom material are used to produce one part of concentrated extract. This provides a concentrated mushroom preparation.

MicroJoy identifies its Cordyceps as Cordyceps militaris, using the mushroom fruiting body.

2. Organic Maca Root Extract – 100 mg

Maca is a plant native to the Andes Mountains of Peru. Its root has traditionally been used as a nutritional and wellness supplement.

Potential wellness benefits:

• May support natural energy and vitality.

• Traditionally associated with stamina and endurance.

• May support mood and general well-being.

• Traditionally used to support libido and sexual wellness.

• Contains naturally occurring plant nutrients.

Maca is often included in energy and vitality supplements because it is marketed as a plant-based adaptogenic ingredient.

3. Vitamin B12 (Methylcobalamin) – 500 mcg

Vitamin B12 is an essential vitamin that plays an important role in the body's energy metabolism and nervous system function.

Potential wellness benefits:

• Supports normal energy metabolism.

• Helps the body produce healthy red blood cells.

• Supports normal nervous system function.

• Helps maintain healthy DNA production.

• Supports normal brain function.

Why is B12 important?

Vitamin B12 helps the body convert nutrients into usable energy. People with a B12 deficiency may experience fatigue and weakness, so maintaining adequate B12 levels is important.

The methylcobalamin form is an active form of Vitamin B12.

Important: B12 supports normal energy metabolism, but additional B12 does not necessarily increase energy in people who already have adequate levels.
