Maca Power

Maca is a hearty root vegetable plant which grows in the high Andean plateaus of Peru at altitudes as high as 14,500 feet above sea level. The plant dates back 2,000 years to the ancient Inca culture. The rich soil located at these high plateaus of Peru where it is very cold and oxygen-poor may account for the high levels of trace minerals found in Maca.

Maca contains a substantial amount of minerals such as Calcium, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Iron, Zinc, Vitamin B-1, N-2, B-12, C, E, Riboflavin, Thiamin and Ascorbic Acid. The perceived fertility powers of Maca are prized by couples in the Peruvian highlands. Men and women who fail to conceive a child eat Maca on a regular basis until conception occurs. In 1961, Dr. Gloria Chacon de Popovici, a biologist in Lima, Peru, published her studies when her research scientifically demonstrated the increased fertility in animals using Maca. To date, her work on Maca is unmatched and she is considered the most knowledgeable person on the subject of Maca today.

The popularity of Maca worldwide is growing at an enormous rate. It is supportive in: Increased energy, enhanced stamina, mental clarity, increased athletic endurance, hormonal balancing, male and female impotence difficulties, erectile dysfunction assistance, menopause, pre- menopause, and menstrual problems.

Gordon, M.D., former president of the American College for the Advancement of Medicine, now Founder and President of the International College of Advanced Longevity Medicine, located in Chicago, Ill., bases his appreciation of Maca on his own experience of it and states that Maca improves the quality of life in the area of sexuality.
