—————–

Maca (Lepidium meyenii) – known as “Peruvian ginseng” – is a root vegetable that grows in very harsh conditions in the Peruvian mountains at an altitude of 3,000 metres, and is traditionally regarded as an adaptogen. The term adaptogen is commonly used for herbs traditionally believed to help the body adapt to changing environmental factors, especially stress. Maca contains 18 amino acids, certain plant sterols, plenty of vitamins (B1, B2, B6, C, E) as well as minerals and trace elements, especially calcium, potassium, magnesium, sulphur, iron, phosphorus, zinc, copper and manganese. In Andean tradition, maca has been used to support vitality, libido, mental clarity and memory, a good mood and restful sleep, as well as women’s well-being through the monthly cycle and menopause.
