| Peruvian Maca Root Information And Benefit (The Maca Story):
|
"Peruvian Ginseng!", "A Miracle Product!", "The 21st Century Food!". These are just some of the terms that people are giving to a little root vegetable that grows high in Peru called Peruvian maca root. Peruvian maca root is quickly gaining the attention and interests of a growing number of people daily. Peruvian maca root's main fame lies in it's ability to increase the sexual urges and fertility rates of men and women. But there are numerous other benefits and attributes of Peruvian maca root that also are well known such as it's ability to make people more energetic, stronger and have more endurance, and to make them feel better emotionally. Peruvian maca root is renowned for relieving the symptoms of menopause and andropause and correcting hormonal imbalances in men and women as well.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Peruvian maca roots looks similar to a radish or a turnip, being in the same family as them, but it comes in a multitude of colors ranging from white to black and purple. Peruvian maca root has grown wild high in the Andes mountain ranges of Peru for thousands of years. Peruvian maca root grows at an altitude of 14,000 feet above sea level where the climate and conditions are very extreme such as freezing cold, intense sunlight and strong winds. These conditions are not very suitable for growing any vegetation and Peruvian maca root has the honor of being the highest growing food plant in the world. The soil and climate where Peruvian maca root grows is probably one of the worst in the world for being able to grow things but Peruvian maca root has somehow thrived where nothing else will. The native people have probably developed their ability to live and survive at those high altitudes in part at least due to the incredible life giving properties of Peruvian maca root.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When the farmers were grazing their flocks in Peru many years ago they noticed that when they let their animals graze where there was lots of Peruvian maca root growing the animals would become much healthier, hardier, and stronger, and also they would tend to copulate a lot more and have a much higher fertility rate. After a while the farmers tried the Peruvian maca root on themselves and found that it made them much more energetic, and strong, and better able to withstand the high altitude, and harsh climate, and also that it made them more sexually active, and fertile as well. Since then, there has been much widespread recorded knowledge and facts about the reputed abilty of Peruvian maca root to be a true aphrodisiac, and a fertility enhancer as well as a very effective energizer, strengthener, and instiller of a feeling of well being.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
What can Peruvian maca root do for you? According to scientific literature Peruvian maca root is amazingly rich in amino acids, phytonutrients, fatty acids, vitamin and minerals. Maybe because of the volcano enriched soil where Peruvian maca root grows and the rarified air and amazingly pure atmosphere around that area, Peruvian maca root has an abundance of trace minerals, and even some that scientists have not even classified yet. Peruvian maca root is truly a powerhouse of nutrition and energy and life giving ingredients, and a few spoonfuls of this powder every day can be a most beneficial supplement for you to take. If you are not taking a vitamin or mineral supplement, but you are taking Peruvian maca root, you will probably not be missing many essential nutrients from your diet. There is so much nutrition and goodness in this humble little tuber root that it is like a once a day supplement itself. Scientists have discovered that Peruvian maca root has the ability to regulate, support, and balance the hormonal systems of both men and women for optimal function. One of the very great things about Peruvian maca root is that it is not "gender specific" and works equally well at the hormonal changing benefits for both sexes equally.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Like ginseng, Peruvian maca root is an adaptogen, and even though Peruvian maca root is not in the ginseng family it shares many similarities to ginseng. Adaptogens are by definition substances that raise the physical body's state of resistance to diseases through physiological health and emotional health improvements. Peruvian maca root somehow supports and rejuvenates overwhelmed, tired adrenal glands eventually resulting in much greater energy, stamina, clarity of mind and spirit, and the ability to handle stress. It should be pointed out that adaptogens work gradually and at their own speed, so the changes may take a little while to notice according to the make-up and physiological state of each individual. But continued, and persistent use of Peruvian maca root does promote phenomenal and profound changes in the hormonal, physical, and emotional states of people.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
One of the most amazing things about Peruvian maca root is it's ability to relieve the symptoms of menopause and andropause (male menopause). The hot flashes, depression, and other symptoms are alleviated very much by taking Peruvian maca root, and the improvements are noticed quite quickly (within days) with most people that try it. Peruvian maca root seems to optimize hormonal system function to ensure ideal levels of progesterone, estrogen, DHEA, testosterone, and human growth hormone. A lot of doctors are having great success with Peruvian maca root as a therapy for menopause symptoms, for increasing energy levels, and for patients who have low adrenal function. Many doctors prefer and recommend it now instead of other hormone replacement therapies because there is no damage to the body by the diminishing of the hormone producing capabilities of the glands.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bring up the word Peruvian maca root to anyone in a casual conversation and if they have ever heard of it they probably relate it to it's reputation of having aphrodisiacal properties. That is the most well known thing about Peruvian maca root, and it is for a good reason. It is a true effective sexual enhancer. In a recent human clinical trial published in the Asian Journal Of Andrology, Peruvian maca root increased libido by 180% and sperm count by 200%. Peruvian maca root increased mating frequency in rodents by 400% in laboratory studies. Maybe this is why Peruvian maca root is being the called "the aphrodisiac of the herbal kingdom".

| Here's what doctors are saying about Peruvian maca root:
|
"Using this Peruvian maca root myself, I personally experienced a significant improvement in erectile tissue response. What I see in Peruvian maca root is a means of normalizing our steroid hormones like testosterone, progesterone, and estrogen. Therefore it has facility to forestall the hormonal changes of aging." - Dr. Garry F, Gordon, M.D., Chicago, Illinois.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Peruvian maca root is very useful in treating male impotence, erectile disfunction, menopausal symptoms, and general fatigue." - Dr. Aguila Calderon, M.D., Lima, Peru.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I'm amazed at how fast Peruvian maca root works...within just four days of taking Peruvian maca root capsules, M. T. went through an enormous turnaround...she feels strong and vigorous and her depression is gone." - Dr. Harold Clark, M.D., New Rochelle, N.Y.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Peruvian maca root regulates the organs of internal secretion, such as the pituitary, the adrenal glands, and the pancreas. I have had perhaps 200 female patients whose menopause symptoms are alleviated by taking maca." - Dr. Hugo Malaspina, M.D., Lima, Peru.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I give my patients a choice; either natural hormones which are made to be biodentical to human estrogen and progesterone or Peruvian maca root extract. The ones who have chosen to go with Peruvian maca root extract are doing phenomenally well." - Dr. Cynthia Watson, M.D., Santa Monica, California.

One other thing we recommend is to take a little more than usual to start with and then later on when your body has adjusted and has acquired some benefit from it you can back off and and just take a "maintenance dose" after that. Also, as with any other adaptogen it would be advisable to take short breaks between long use of it as it gives your body a chance to slow down and take a bit of a rest and this ensures that you do not build up a resistance to the beneficial effects of the Peruvian maca root.

A report on AOL home page
By Jude Webber by Reuters 18:49 08-15-01
LIMA, Peru (Aug. 15, 2001)
- It looks like a tiny brown turnip, has a strong smell and what some consider a disgusting taste, but Peru's ''miracle'' Peruvian maca root can boost your sex drive by up to 200 percent, according to a study presented on Wednesday.
The powerful plant, cultivated for more than two millennia in the harsh high Andes at altitudes of more than 13,200 feet, is the basis of a nutritional supplement often dubbed ''Peruvian ginseng'' which, the study found, can also cut stress, boost energy and well-being and increase fertility.
Scientist Gustavo Gonzales of Peru's Cayetano Heredia University, who led what the scientists say is the world's first study into Peruvian maca root's effect on humans, told a news conference the three- month trial involving 12 volunteer men pointed to an 180-200 percent lift in libido and up to a doubling of sperm production.
''It's a miracle (product),'' said Fernando Cabieses, a professor and authority on Peruvian maca root, a plant he said was a nutritional gem for people of all ages.
The studies were preliminary and not subject to independent review and confirmation, factors which may influence the degree to which the research is accepted by other scientists. But experts said the data so far were promising.
''According to reports from the international medical community, Peruvian maca root definitely has energy giving properties, boosts physical and sexual performance ... Preliminary reports are promising,'' Julio Castro, dean of Peru's College of Doctors told, Reuters. He said, however, fuller studies were necessary.
For Peru -- which gave the world potatoes and the malaria treatment quinine -- Peruvian maca root is a unique and little touted treasure that could prove a big money spinner in a growing world trend for natural remedies and alternative medicines. Peruvians consume Peruvian maca root boiled and in powder or tablet form.
It is also starting to be exported, notably to eastern Europe, and the market is growing in the United States.
''If Peru exported at least 5 or 6 percent of what Korea does ... Peruvian maca root would be the second most important agricultural crop after coffee,'' said Silva.
Achieving that was a feasible goal within five years ''if the government promotes exports and foreign markets,'' he said. Peru is currently the world's only Peruvian maca root producer, although Silva said, he understood Bolivia had also begun planting.
FAST FOOD FOR LACKLUSTER LIBIDOS
According to Spanish chroniclers, Inca warriors took Peruvian maca root to prime themselves for their expansionary missions and athletes, particularly those in endurance sports, have long sung the praises of the native Peruvian plant.
A relative of turnips, mustard and cabbage, maca -- lepidium meyenii or lepidium peruvianum in Latin -- is rich in phosphorus, calcium, protein, iron, natural fiber and mineral salts, according to La Molina National Agrarian University.
The ''blind'' clinical trial -- in which some men were fed dummy pills and others Peruvian maca root --measured hormone levels and other physical indicators and used a series of existing psychological tests to determine the plant's properties. No side effects were seen, Gonzales said.He said maca produced an increase in sex drive within two weeks. Although it also appeared to boost the production and movement of sperm, Gonzales said more research was needed as the test had been restricted to a very small sample.
Gonzales said initial findings had been presented to a meeting of Latin American reproductive investigators in May and further trials -- including on women -- were in the pipeline.

Article in NEUTRACEUTICALS, no. 1/2000
". . . There is a strong likelihood that another South American product, Peruvian maca root powder, will lead charge in drawing attention to this frontier. Peruvian maca root is the highest altitude cultivated crop in the world. Related to the turnip, it is the only native cruciferous vegetable of the Americas. Peruvian maca root has been used to enhance vitality among the indigenous cultures of the Andes for over 5800 years. At an altitude of 14,500 feet above sea level, just existing is an accomplishment. To put it in perspective, light planes that are not pressurized cannot legally fly above 10,000 feet and yet Peruvian maca root is grown nearly another mile into the atmosphere.
"But is energy and vitality the reason for the interest in Peruvian maca root? Perhaps, but of greater is its ability to promote sexual function and fertility. Remarkably, the consumption of this vegetable has been shown to prevent the compromises in fertility that one encounters at high altitude and it works in males and females. Who would have thought that a vegetable could raise sperm counts and semen volumes and prevent fetal growth restriction and miscarriages? Anyone experienced in marketing knows that sex sells, and a turnip that turns you on, well, you gotta have it!
"So, oddly, the next frontier of herbal medicines in South America may not originate in the rain forest as one would predict, but on a barren plateau in the cold, high, a scene more like the moon than pristine farmland. Peruvian maca root is likely to bring the attention of the world to South America

Article in the Miami Herald
Maca Root In Peru
INTERNATIONAL, Jan. 11, 1999 (The Herald) Peruvian maca root, a small, Andean root belonging to the radish family, was in danger of disappearing in the early 1990s. With only 125 acres of the plant growing in its natural habitat, more than 13,000 feet above sea level in the central Andes, Peruvian maca root was put on the endangered species list by the International Board of Genetic Resources.
Peruvians in the highland departments of Pasco and Junin, however, never forgot about maca root's beneficial properties. Peruvian maca root is best known for stimulating sexual appetite, while farmed for its high levels of proteins and vitamins. The maca root is dried and ground, then used to make everything from soups to alcoholic beverages. The leaves are brewed for tea.
Pharmaceutical companies in Peru became interested in Peruvian maca root several years ago because of its vitamins, but the advent of it's strong aphrodisiac effect has changed the plant's future forever. From only a few acres in 1995, there are now about 1,500 acres of maca growing on a highland plateau between Cerro de Pasco and Junin, and the Agricultural Ministry expects an additional 5,000 acres to be planted this year.
During his first press conference after being sworn in last week as Peruvian Agriculture Minister, Belisario de las Casas said that the Japanese government had approved the importation of Peruvian maca root in its natural form. "I take Peruvian maca root and can attest to its invigorating powers," de las Casas said.
