There are so many "uses" for the mighty Maca; everyone can find a use for more energy, right?! What about sexual energy, and sex drive?! Meet my mate Maca! Yet again, it's called superfood for a super reason, it promotes sexual function of both men and women. Bringing a boost to your libido, while also increasing endurance, so you'll be doing the hokey pokey, for longer. That'll surprise your partner!

At the same time it balances our hormones, which for many men, means a boost in their testosterone levels, and increases in fertility. The hormonal boosts for women equally beneficial; increasing sexual libido in women, likely due to its positive effects on serotonin levels, the “feel good” hormone. After we're all done doing-it, Maca powder relieves menstrual issues and menopause, alleviates cramps, body pain, hot flashes, anxiety, mood swings, and depression.

Expect a few days of maca for your energy level to noticeably increase. It's not an instant fix or stimulant "high", which is a good thing, we avoid the equal-and-opposite-reaction; crashing to a low, as with caffeine and stimulants. It is also known for increasing stamina. Many athletes use Maca for peak performance. If you find yourself tired most of the time, experiment with Maca to see if it helps. Just a small amount could be the boost you need.

Glutathione and SOD (superoxide dismutase) are two major disease fighters in the body. Research suggests Maca has the antioxidant abilities to help prevent the development of chronic human diseases that are characterised by high levels of “bad” cholesterol, high antioxidative states, and impaired glucose tolerance.

Maca supplies iron and helps restore red blood cells, which aids anemia and cardiovascular diseases. Maca keeps your bones and teeth healthy and heals wounds more quickly! Used in conjunction with a strength exercise, you should notice an increase in muscle mass. Maca improves complexion, helps to clear acne and blemishes. Another skin benefit is decreases sensitivity to hot or cold weather, helping skin withstand extreme temperatures!

Anxiety, stress, depression or mood swings decrease, evidence is anecdotal, personally I notice increased mental energy and focus; less willing to give up so easily!

Maca-Motivation!!

RAWWWWWWWWwwwwwrrrrr...!!!

That Side Effects and Warnings bit.

Maca is a medicinal plant, and should be treated as such. Doseage should be teaspoons and tablespoons. Most mistakes are made by newbies with superfoods, unaware of potency, and doseage. The same applies to moringa leaf, which we'll introduce soon. We've already mentioned pregnancy warnings above, assuming you're not pregnant, the following should be cautious; cancer related to hormones like testicular and ovarian, and liver issues or high blood pressure, VTeam suggest discussing Maca with a trusted doctor first.
