Peruvian Maca Peruvian Maca is a hardy perennial cultivated at a high elevation in the Andes of South America. Native Peruvians have traditionally utilised Maca since before the time of the lncas. It was prized by the lncas and later by the Spaniards. Maca is now emerging from obscurity and near extinction to take it's place among the most valuable herbs known to mankind. Maca is a nutritional powerhouse especially rich in iodine. It is a reliable protein source containing significant amounts of amino acids. It is also rich in complex carbohydrates and essential minerals such as calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, zinc, iron and vitamins Bl, B2, B12 and C. Maca is an "adaptogen" which, it is reported, helps restore balance or homeostasis to the body. It is said to be particularly useful in cases of immune system depletion, anaemia, menstrual disorders, menopause symptoms, thyroid problems, osteoporosis treatment and prevention, sterility and other reproductive and sexual disorders. Maca has been used to increase energy and to promote improvement in both stamina and endurance in athletes. Maca is a healthy choice for increasing energy because it is not a stimulant. It is said to be especially useful in cases of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, adrenal exhaustion and to restoring energy and vigour to the elderly. Most striking is the fact that Maca root contains natural substances that stimulate the pituitary and hypothalamus. These master glands of the body in turn trigger the ovaries, adrenals, testes, thyroid and pancreas to return to healthy functioning. Maca is a safe natural food supplement fully endorsed and used by many prominent doctors. CONTRAINDICATIONS: Maca is not recommended for women with breast, ovarian, uterine or other hormone-related cancers. Nor is it recommended for men with prostate or testicular cancer or with enlarged prostates.ô Also, consult your physician if you have high blood pressure, gall bladder or serious liver disease. |
