Maca is an Andean root that functions as an effective adaptogen and is used to help the body adapt to daily stress and pressure. It aids the body in reacting and recovering from physical and mental stress. Adaptogens like Maca supplements can boost stamina, vitality and immunity. Furthermore, it can alleviate depression, anxiety and fatigue.
Maca was reportedly consumed by the Inca warriors in preparation for battle. It is also known to increase male and female libido as well as fertility rate. Although unrelated to Ginseng, it is sometimes referred to as Peruvian ginseng because of its similar properties. Our Maca Extra Strength capsules contain 100% raw Maca powder plus Maca 4:1 extract to give you a potent daily dose.
