This rich composition also contributes to a significant increase in energy levels in a sustainable way.

This makes the root a powerful tool for reducing stress and anxiety and improving mood.

They, as well as most of the other health benefits of the root, are due to its beneficial effects on hormonal levels.

What is maca?

Maca (Lepidium meyenii) is sometimes called Peruvian ginseng. The plant is related to cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, and horseradish and has been cultivated for over two millennia by some peoples in the Andes because it is one of the few species capable of surviving the harsh high-altitude conditions. It is a root vegetable that grows in fertile soils at altitudes of over 4,000 meters and is very efficient at extracting minerals from the soil.

Po makka, which somewhat resembles a turnip, is used by the local population to make soups, breads, porridges, and fermented beverages, as well as to treat a wide range of medical conditions, including reproductive problems, respiratory problems, and rheumatism.

According to local folklore, ancient Indian warriors consumed maca before battle to increase strength and stamina. Later, however, chiefs began to forbid them from doing so to protect their enemy's women from their increased libido. The Incas added it to their medicinal mixtures to increase energy, tone, stamina, and strength.

Maca roots are high in fiber, amino acids, vitamins, and minerals. They also contain other bioactive compounds, including macamides, macaridine, alkaloids, and glucosinolates, which are responsible for many of the plant's health benefits.

Method of administration:
