Features & Benefits
A turnip-like cruciferous root vegetable native to the Andean mountains in Peru,
maca is grown at altitudes of 14,000 feet where no other crops can survive making
a resilient plant incredibly rich in amino acids, phytonutrients, fatty acids,
vitamins and minerals.
Used for centuries by native Peruvian for its remarkable health properties, maca has been clinically proven in both men and women to help:
Balance hormones & Improve sexual function
Renowned for its hormone-balancing effects, maca has been shown to optimize the hormonal system—without introducing foreign animal, plant or synthetic hormones. Maca regulates the endocrine system addressing hormonal imbalance and its associated symptoms in both sexes to safely:
Increase energy & reduce stress
Also called ”Peruvian Ginseng”, maca is a powerful adaptogen that helps increase energy and stamina and improve the ability to handle stress. Its remarkable benefits lie in its ability to naturally nourish and rejuvenate exhausted adrenal glands serving to:
What is an adaptogen?
A substance that produces a response in your body which increases your power of resistance against multiple stressors. Adaptogens have a normalizing influence on your body’s multiple systems, improving both your physiological and emotional health.
Maca As Sexual Enhancer
Maca's ability to help restore libido is probably what it is best known for. It is often described as an aphrodisiac for both sexes and is clinically proven to improve sexual function in humans.
The first known published human study on Maca's effect on libido and fertility in men was conducted in Peru and published in the Asian Journal of Andrology. Study data showed that Maca increased sexual desire (libido) by 180% and increased sperm count by 200%. Other benefits included increased sperm mobility, increased DHEA levels, decreased anxiety and stress, lower blood pressure and a general sense of well-being.
In the prestigious medical journal Urology (April 2000), scientists studied the effects of Maca on rats with erectile disorders and low testosterone levels. The Maca-fed group had an amazing 400% more copulation than the non Maca-fed group. Rodents with low testosterone levels demonstrated a significant increase in sexual activity, indicating a possibility that men with low testosterone or erectile dysfunction may experience improvement. In the studies, the more Maca extract fed to the animals, the greater their strength, libido and sexual function.
In studies with rats, females given Maca showed significantly increased Graaf follicles and other favorable endometrium characteristics, which indicate a higher fertility level. Male rats had significantly higher sperm production and motility rates than in control groups. The effects were measurable within 72 hours of dosing the animals.
Maca As Hormonal Regulator
The most exciting news about Maca is that it helps nourish, strengthen and balance the endocrine system of both sexes in the appropriate gender-specific manner. Its action focuses on the hypothalamus/pituitary axis, which in turn governs the intricate and very delicate hormonal system of the body.
Not only can the reproductive system be re-energized by Maca, but other important glands of the endocrine system also benefit from its use. Regular use of Maca can have a positive effect on the thyroid, parathyroid, the pancreas and the adrenal glands. Maca has been know to help with symptoms of hormonal imbalance, such as impotence, infertility, frigidity, PMS, and menopausal hot flashes, safely and naturally.
The human hormonal system is extremely vulnerable and easily offset. Today, many health practitioners are recommending Maca as a safe, natural and effective way to alleviate symptoms of menopause (hot flashes, vaginal dryness, mood swings and loss of libido) as well as good insurance against osteoporosis.
Maca works differently on the body compared to estrogenic herbs (e.g. black cohosh) that are also used in treating symptoms of menopause. Instead of introducing weak phytoestrogens into the body, Maca regulates and balances the entire endocrine system, strengthening and toning the reproductive glands to promote a heightened sense of well-being and providing the body with higher levels of energy and vitality.
Recently have we begun to see that men have a menopause of their own, known as ‘andropause.’ Characterized by a decline in testosterone or the inability to use existing testosterone, some common symptoms associated with andropause include low sex drive, impotence, depression, irritability, fatigue, muscle loss and fat accumulation. Like their female counterparts, andropause sufferers can benefit greatly from the hormonal regulating effects of Maca
The benefits of Maca seem to be for individuals of all ages. The herb supports hormonal functioning in older and younger adults, and athletes have been reporting increased energy and stamina in their workouts. Maca is the natural answer for symptoms of hormonal imbalance!
