Peruvian Maca was revered for its sexual enhancing abilities and was often used as payment to the Inca royalty.

The high-powered roots of Maca were on the verge of extinction in the high Andes. |

| MACA, the plant, is a cruciferous root plant native to the highlands in Peru. It grows only at high altitudes, between 11,500 and 14,500 feet, leaving limited regions in the world where it can be grown. Except for a few coarse grasses very little can grow in the harsh environment where Maca is found. When fresh, Maca looks like a small turnip and is considered a treat when baked or roasted in ashes or between hot stones. The majority of the harvest is sun dried (up to two months) and stored for later use. Dried Maca root can be stored for many years without losing its nutritional value. Maca has been cultivated and used for thousands of years by the native peoples of the region for its nutritional food values and beneficial health effects. Maca is an adaptogen. To be considered an adaptogen, a plant must be nontoxic and totally harmless to the body. It must allow the continuing normal physiological functioning of the individual. The action it exerts must be nonspecific and should maintain and normalize body functions irrespective of existing pathological condition. In other words, its beneficial effects are appropriate to the age and sex of the person using it, benefiting several systems simultaneously while not harming any system of the body. Maca is a means to bring your hormonal levels up to normal without adding outside hormones to your system. Many doctors believe that when you supplement with hormones you might cause your glands to atrophy, shutting down your bodies ability to produce your own hormones. Maca is a nontoxic solution with no downside effects. |
