HISTORY OF
MACA
Maca root,
(a rare member of the radish family) is a herb that grows just
below the glaciated slopes of the Peruvian
Andes. Rich in nutritional
potassium and higher levels of calcium than milk, maca is a natural
hormone balancer which provides great health benefits for both
men and women.
Maca was
first used by the Incas more than 3000 years ago for energy and endurance
and is still traded as a medicine and energy giving herb throughout
the towns and villages of Peru today. When the Spanish arrived to Peru
in 1533, these little plants were hidden away and remained on the
brink edge of extinction for centuries. Today's dedication by the
Peruvian goverment with the over seing and cultivating of Maca
root, it's
no longer
considered the "lost herb" The medical journal "Urology" that first
published the Viagra ® study, also published, in the April 2000
issue a study confirming the sex-enhancing effects of Maca. This
is very significant for a major medical journal to publish findings
on a sex-enhancing herb. Maca's ability to act as an aphrodisiac
is becoming well known worldwide. Many South Americans compare Maca
with Viagra ® Maca of course is not Viagra ,
but it does nurture the hormonal system in both men and women giving
a person's body a natural hormonal balance.
Maca recently
has been studied in
the United States for the treatment of sexual dysfunction, research
has shown that a man's sperm count and semen volume have increased
as high as 200% over a 21 day test. For Women alike, a study showed
that Maca has increased the ovarian function in women giving an alternative
to fertility pills prescribed by doctors.
