Peruvian Maca
Root
Just as the Incas did centuries ago, many Peruvians swear by
Maca's energizing and aphrodisiacal powers. Maca is also touted as a tonic
for a host of other health problems, including post-menopause
syndrome, infertility, hormonal imbalance and lack of
libido.
Maca is a natural hormone replacement
therapy (HRT) alternative that is proven both safe and
effective is the Peruvian herb, MACA (Lepidium Meyerii Walp,
Lepidium Peruvianum Chacon).
The Maca root is both a food and an
herb. Maca is grown in the high Andean plateau at altitudes of
14,000 feet, making it the highest cultivated food plant in the
world. The seeds of the Maca plant were first collected and planted
over 10,000 years ago.
Traditionally, the native Peruvians
of the Andes have been using Maca, since well before the time of
the Incas., as an aphrodisiac, for stamina, for energy and for
physical endurance. In just the last 20 years, South American doctors
have rediscovered Maca, and use it to treat numerous problems and
diseases, including premenstrual syndrome, menopause (vagina dryness,
hot flashes, depression), male impotence, infertility and
osteoporosis. Maca is also used for memory disorders, mental clarity and increased
erectile tissue response.
This is not an ordinary plant. Maca
has the potency to forestall the hormonal changes which cause aging. Maca
acts on men and women to balance their hormonal systems. It does
this by regulating the pituitary gland and the hypothalamus, the
master glands. These, in turn, trigger the Endocrine System - the
adrenals, testes, ovaries, thyroid and pancreas to return to normal
healthy function, producing the appropriate amounts of hormones
needed.
Maca all but reverses the aging process. And you'll find it
in abundance in Maca Manna - a concentrated, nutrient-dense
wholefood blend.
