Discovered 10,000 feet up in the Andes Mountains of Peru, Maca root is a nutritious and legendary root passed down from the Inca and known as “Peruvian ginseng” and has been used for centuries. The root is the most important part of the plant because it contains significant levels of naturally occurring fatty acids, amino acids, arginine and histidine. Maca root has also been called an adaptogen, which means that it increases the body’s ability to defend itself against both physical and mental weakening. Like ginseng, it is used to increase strength, energy, stamina, healthy libido and sexual function. Maca has effects on the enhancement of the endocrine function which controls such conditions as fertility, sexual function, brain and nervous system physiology, and energy levels. Traditionally, Maca has been used for a variety of purposes, which can differ for both men and women. For example, women have found that it helps relieve the symptoms of PMS and menopause. Meanwhile, men have used it to enhance fertility and sexual function. Users of Maca root can derive a variety of benefits in accordance with their individual needs such as
● Supports male stamina and endurance (great for men and women both).
