History of Maca - Natural
Alternative to HRT
A natural hormone
replacement therapy (HRT) alternative that is proven both safe and
effective is the Peruvian herb, MACA (Lepidium Meyerii Walp; aka
Lepidium Peruvianum Chacon). The Maca root is both a food and an
herb. It is grown in the high Andean plateau at altitudes of 14,000
feet, making it the highest cultivated food plant in the world. The
seeds of the Maca plant were first collected and planted over 10,000
years ago.
The Lost
Secret of the Andes Traditionally,
the native Peruvians of the Andes have been using it, since well
before the time of the Incas., as an aphrodisiac, for stamina, for
energy and for physical endurance. In just the last 20 years, South
American doctors have rediscovered it, and use it to treat numerous
problems and diseases, including premenstrual syndrome, menopause
(vagina dryness, hot flashes, depression), male impotence,
infertility and osteoporosis. It is also used for memory disorders,
mental clarity and increased erectile tissue response. This is
not an ordinary plant. Maca has the potency to forestall the
hormonal changes which cause aging. It acts on men and women to
balance their hormonal systems. It does this by regulating the
pituitary gland and the hypothalamus, the master glands. These, in
turn, trigger the Endocrine System - the adrenals, testes, ovaries,
thyroid and pancreas to return to normal healthy function, producing
the appropriate amounts of hormones needed. Maca all
but reverses the aging process. And you'll find it in abundance
in MacaManna - a concentrated, nutrient-dense wholefood blend.
Inca
Legacy During the Inca Reign,, the Inca Ruler
withdrew the Maca roots produced from general trade and restricted
their use to the nobility and the warriors. The warriors were
given Maca before going to battle to increase their strength and
endurance. However, after conquering the opposing peoples, the Inca
warriors were prohibited from eating Maca.. This was to protect the
women from their conquerors' powerful sexual drive. After the
Spanish Conquest of the Incas in the 16th century, the King of Spain
demanded that part of his tribute be given in Maca roots. This was
reserved for the Spanish Royalty to be consumed for increased sexual
energy and health.
