An energising and revitalising superfood of the Incas. Jam packed with vitamins, minerals, enzymes and all the essential amino acids.
Grown at 4,000m above sea level in the Andean district of Junin by the Pumpush people who have been cultivating and consuming maca as a staple food for thousansds of years.
Maca contains unique alkaloids, which help stimulate the master glands that in turn may help optimise and balance the entire endocrine system.
Our supplier, Living Earth Pty Ltd, buys and imports directly from the producers in Junin, Peru.
The following article about Maca is reprinted from the May 2003 edition of 'Conscious Living' Magazine.
"Maca is a root vegetable cultivated high in the mountains of Peru - for thousands of years locals have revered the plant as a saviour, sustaining them in a climate and altitude where it is virtually impossible to grow any other crop. Ground into powdered form for easy consumption, Maca (when non-irradiated) remains high in important nutrients like trace minerals, EFA's, amino acids and vitamins - pure and unadulterated just as Nature intended. The popularity of this nutritious food source has grown steadily, with thousands of people now relying on it to maintain a healthy, balanced lifestyle.
This Incan superfood seems to benefit the body not just on a nutritional level, but also attune it on the hormonal, emotional and physical levels as well. With all the 21st Century interference -- like oestrogen-mimicking compounds, mobile phone/computer VDT emissions, and lack of purity in our air, food and water -- it is no wonder our hormones are out of balance. Apparently, Maca stimulates our master glands, the pituitary and hypothalamus, to re-direct our hormones to optimal function.
In recent years, many concerned Australian women have turned to Maca as a natural alternative to Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). Previously, the choices for women were largely artificial and carried with them a range of potential side-effects. Rather than introducing hormones from the outside, which can send a message to the body to shut down its own hormone production, Maca effectively encourages the glands in the body to produce the hormones needed for each individual's unique requirements. From a biochemical perspective, it is surprising how many common health issues can be triggered by hormonal disruptions - such as infertility, osteoporosis, obesity, constipation, depression, insomnia and PMT.
