One of the most powerful medicinal plants on earth.

Our Maca is grown in the most desirable growing conditions, at 14,000 feet (higher than any other cultivated crop in the world) high in the Andes Mountains, on a plantation Peru's Junin plateau. Here, the intense sunlight, pure air and organic soil combine to produce the most potent and pure strain of Maca root on earth.

The growers began centuries ago, mastering the art of producing powerful strains of Maca root... the finest strain of them all.

Ingredients

Vitamins B1, B2, and C
Vitamin B1 help your body's cells convert carbohydrates into energy. It is also essential for the functioning of the heart, muscles, and nervous system.
Vitamin B2 works with the other B vitamins. It is important for body growth and red cell production, and helps in releasing energy from carbohydrates.
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is involved in oxidation-reduction reactions.

Alkaloids
4 novel alkaloids: macaina 1, 2, 3, and 4. These are responsible for activating hormone regulators located in the brain, that in turn regulate the metabolism of calcium and phosphorus in your blood.

Micronutrients
Minerals which help with the production of antibodies.

Macronutrients
Essential vitamins and minerals, nutritive properties help convalescent people or patients who are diagnosed with anemia.

Proteins
Rich in bioavailable Maca proteins with an average of 11 gr % in the dry root.

Fiber
Loaded with cellulose and lignin which stimulate intestinal function. Investigators claim fibers such as these diminishes the risk of cancer of the large intestine by helping you eliminate waste and toxins.

Carbohydrates
Rich in quality carbohydrates; combined with the alkaloids and other nutrients is the source for sustainable energy.

Tannins
Useful in treatment of diarrhea.

Calcium
Higher concentrations of calcium than in milk; indispensable for the nerves and circulatory system and the formation for bones, teeth, and vital heart functions.

Bismuth
Known to participate in the processing against gastritis caused by bacteria.

Potassium
Participates in the regulation of osmotic pressure; its activity is carried out inside the cells.

Copper
The probable participant in the formation of hemoglobin. Lack of copper can greatly decrease the amount of essential enzymes.

Zinc
Serves as a cofactor of dehydrogenises and carbonic anhydrite. Its lack can cause skin rashes, taste disturbances, and mental lethargy.

Fructose
A sugar used by the seminal plasma for the production of semen or spermatozoa.

Phosphorus
Regulates the transmission of neuromuscular chemicals and electrical stimuli. Important for the homeostasis of calcium and the reactions of lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins. The body's chemical energy is stored in phosphate compounds.

Iron
Vital component of hemoglobin and certain respiratory enzymes. Increased iron intake is important during excessive menses and other instances of blood loss. Deficiency results in anemia, poor growth or difficult pregnancies.

Manganese
In an experimental diet of this element, results demonstrated that it induced growth in animals.

Starch
Calcium and iron, forming chemical compounds that influence your nutritional health.

Fatty Acids
Contains over 20 fatty acids.

Sodium
Along with potassium, it was discovered that an increase in the daily diet of the sodium-potassium relation helps reduce arterial pressure/ hypertension. Nevertheless, an excessive increase of this relation could give rise to a diminution of the susceptibility to the bascule-cerebral accidents that do not depend on arterial pressure.

Silicon
Helps the connective tissues, including the aorta, trachea, tendons, bones, and skin.

Magnesium
Essential for protein synthesis, and activities of muscles and nerves. Deficiency of quality magnesium can cause changes in heart and skeletal muscles.
