African Mango & Maca Drops

African Mango & Maca Drops is a liquid supplement built around one 200 mg row: the Proprietary Active-8 & African Mango Complex. A serving is 1 ml — twenty drops — taken three times a day from a 1 fl oz bottle, thirty servings in all. Vegan, gluten free and non-GMO. The label's own descriptor reads "Aids in Healthy Weight Management*".

What you get in every serving

  • 200 mg Proprietary Active-8 & African Mango Complex
  • 20 drops (1 ml) per serving
  • 30 servings in a 1 fl oz (30 ml) bottle
  • Daily Value isn't established for the complex, so the panel marks that row **
  • Vegan, gluten free, non-GMO

What's in the 200 mg complex

The panel names all nine members of the blend and gives them one shared weight. It doesn't break out the individual amounts — so neither do we. Here's the list exactly as it's printed:

African Mango Fruit Extract (Irvingia Gabonensis) — an extract of the fruit of the African mango, a West African tree also called bush mango.

Maca Root Extract (Lepidium Meyenii) — maca is a root vegetable in the brassica family, grown high in the Peruvian Andes.

Astragalus Membranaceus Root Extract — the root of a plant in the legume family.

Rhodiola Rosea Root Extract — rhodiola, sometimes called roseroot, a flowering plant of cold, high-altitude places.

Pygeum Africanum Root Extract — from the African cherry tree, listed on the panel as a root extract.

L-Arginine Base, L-Glutamine and L-Ornithine HCl — three amino acids — and L-Carnitine, a compound built from amino acids. Those are the last four names on the row.

Why drops, not capsules

A tincture is a different format from a pill, and it suits different people. There's no capsule to swallow, which matters if pills are a struggle. You can count the drops out and see exactly what you're taking — twenty is a serving. And a 1 fl oz dropper bottle is small enough for a pocket.

The base is deionized water and ethanol, the traditional solvent pair for a liquid herbal extract. Worth knowing if you avoid alcohol in any form.

How it tastes and how it's taken

Organic citrus extract is on the ingredient list, and it's sweetened with stevia extract and xylitol rather than sugar. Twenty drops, three times a day, as the label directs.

Who it's for

People who want African mango and maca in one bottle instead of two, and who'd rather take a liquid than a capsule. It's a fit for vegan routines, and for anyone who already keeps a drops-based supplement stack and would like this one to match. If you're building a routine around a healthy weight management goal, a dropper bottle is an easy format to carry through a three-times-a-day routine.

How to use it

Take 1ml (20 drops) 3 times a day.

What's in it

Deionized Water, Ethanol, Organic Citrus Extract, Stevia Extract, Xylitol.
