Maca 450 mg x 60 caps. A PREMIUM EXTRACT FROM THE ROOT OF THE SOUTH AMERICAN MEDICINAL PLANT MACA (LEPIDIUM MEYENII), BELONGING TO THE BRASSICACEAE FAMILY AND GROWING IN THE HIGH MOUNTAIN BELT OF THE PERU ANDES. CONDITIONS IN WHICH IT IS RECOMMENDED ARE: ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION, REDUCED REPRODUCTIVE CAPACITIES IN BOTH SEXES AND DIFFICULTY REACHING ORGASM; SEVERE FATIGUE; MENOPAUSE AND OSTEOPOROSIS IN WOMEN; PHYSICAL OVERLOAD AND PROLONGED STAY IN EXTREME NATURAL CONDITIONS; CHRONIC STRESS AND MENTAL EXHAUSTION.

The extract in the Nature's Way product is standardized to 0.6% glucosinolates - one of the most important pharmacologically active substances in the root responsible for the therapeutic properties of maca.

Particularly characteristic of glucosinolates is their adaptogenic effect, thanks to which they have a strong strengthening effect on the central nervous system, help to overcome mental tension, stimulate the ability to concentrate and memorize a large amount of information.

In combination with macaene (an unsaturated fatty acid in maca root), glucosinolates are extremely beneficial for increasing libido and improving reproductive function in both sexes. Maca root extracts standardized to glucosinolates are powerful aphrodisiacs for overcoming sexual dysfunction, especially if it is due to intense mental or emotional stress.

improvement of vitality and male sexual ability, increase in libido and frequency of erection;
the antioxidant protection of the Leydig and Sertoli cells of the testicles, and increasing the number and motility of spermatozoa;

MACA – NUTRIENT COMPOSITION OF THE ROOTS
The roots of the poppy resemble radishes and have a cream-beige color. They are valued by the Peruvians and their neighboring peoples as a food and medicinal agent with a composition rich in carbohydrates, proteins, vitamins, minerals and trace elements. And since these peoples live at high altitudes, maca is one of the few plants they can rely on for food and adaptation to life in extreme conditions.

In addition to glucosinolates, the root also contains sugars and proteins, oleic, palmitic and malic acids, uridine, amino acids, fiber, steroid saponins, the alkaloids macaridin and macamides, as well as significant amounts of potassium, calcium, selenium, magnesium.

Glucosinolates in the root mainly include glucotropeolin and benzyl glucosinolate, the latter being most often used to standardize maca extracts.

Maca does not contain hormones and does not act directly as an agonist or antagonist of hormone receptors. Its safety has been verified and is close to that of turnips and broccoli, to which the plant is related. Maca root extract produced by Nature's Way is TRU-ID certified, which guarantees its identity and purity from genetically modified ingredients!
