Maca


Maca, known as Peruvian ginseng, is a plant that grows specifically in the high-altitude Andes Mountains of Peru. It contains various minerals and plant sterols and has traditionally been used to heal various conditions, particularly those related to sexual dysfunction and energy deficiency. It has also been primarily used to increase fertility, stamina, cognitive function, and libido while also relieving symptoms of menopause. Recent studies have revealed that the supposed benefits of maca are due to its active constituent, p-methoxybenzyl isothiocyanate, a natural aphrodisiac.





Black maca has been recognized as the most powerful form of this plant, containing both sweet and slightly bitter flavors and known for its ability to enhance energy and stamina. It also contains a high amount of natural iodine, which can help prevent thyroid diseases.


Sexual Enhancement and Energy Boost


Traditionally, Incan warriors believed that maca could increase their energy and stamina. Before going into battle, they would consume maca to keep their bodies strong and prepare for strenuous physical activity. When the Spanish conquistadors conquered the Incas, they soon learned about the benefits of maca and valued the plant as highly as gold, using it as a means of trade. Animal studies using rats have shown an increase in male hormones after consuming maca. Though more scientific research is needed, scientists attribute this to the high concentration of essential amino acids found in maca, such as tyrosine and phenylalanine, which can help increase sexual desire.


Improved Sperm Function


Maca has been found to increase sperm count in rats exposed to normal and high altitudes, as well as in rats with pathological conditions caused by exposure to sodium metabisulfite or malathion. Black maca and a small amount of cream (gold) maca have been found to increase sperm count and vitality, while red maca showed no efficacy in these areas.
