Maca stands for vitality, energy, well-being and good sex!

In addition to valuable proteins, the root of the Maca plant, which is native to South America, contains high amounts of amino acids, iron, zinc, magnesium, calcium, carbohydrates, phosphorus, sugar, starch, several minerals, many vitamins and hormone-like substances. Especially the content of steroid saponins makes the plant interesting for sports enthusiasts as it improves muscle growth and vitality. But in medicine, too, the special effects have now been recognised, which are shown above all in an improvement of the hormonal balance, the strengthening of the immune system and the ability to regenerate. Physical and psychological stress consequences can also be reduced with Maca. Last but not least, the plant is regarded in folk medicine as a potency-enhancing remedy.

Studies about Maca

Clinical tests on Maca were carried out at the University of Peruana Cayetano Heredia. Healthy adults (men & women), who were given Maca as capsules, were tested for sexual behaviour, erectile function and physical well-being.

Maca increased sexual desire by 180% compared to the test group. It increased sperm volume, doubled sperm count and mobility. Maca also showed positive effects on brain processing ability.

Which is the best Maca?

There are many different types of Maca. Maca e.g. from Chile or Bolivia and even synthetic Maca. Only the genuine organic Maca, which grows in the Peruvian Andes at more than 3000 meters above sea level, has all the positive effects described and scientifically studied.
