			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Organically grown maca root is considered by top researchers to be a true ADAPTOGEN- and aggressively touted as the &#8220;superfood of the Andes&#8221; by the natural products industry.</p>
<p>Working in tandem with the body&#8217;s natural rhythms, Maca root helps rebuild weak immune systems, re-mineralize poorly nourished bodies, and increase energy and endurance.</p>
<h3>WHY DOES MACA MAKE YOU FEEL SO GOOD?</h3>
<p>Each MACA root contains over 55 naturally occurring, beneficial phyto-chemicals, that&#8217;s why!</p>
<p>These naturally occurring chemicals include important hormonal precursors and sterols proven time and time again to assist the human body in a number of recognizable ways. Most people feel their mood and energy level lift in an instant.</p>
<p>Some of the benefits of Maca include:</p>
<p>* Increases energy &amp; endurance</p>
<p>* increases stamina</p>
<p>* alleviates chronic exhaustion</p>
<p>* improves sexual function in both men &amp; women</p>
<p>* enhances fertility in people &amp; animals</p>
<p>* reduces hormonal dysfunction during menopause and andropause (male menopause)</p>
<p>* can regulate hormonal imbalances</p>
<p>* aids in alleviating depression – gives a sense of well being</p>
<p>* reduces anxiety &amp; stress</p>
<p>* has a beneficial action on the circulatory system: speeds wound healing and reduces anaemia</p>
<p>* enhances memory, learning and mental ability</p>
<p>* has a beneficial action on the circulatory system – it gives the skin a more youthful appearance</p>
<p>* helps to treat anaemia, rickets, osteomalacia and stomach cancer</p>
<p>* good for healthy teeth and bones</p>
<p>* acts as a fungistatic and bacteriostatic</p>
<p>* acts as an anticarcinogen &amp; antioxidant</p>
<p>* is an alternative to anabolic steroids as it helps to build muscles</p>
<p>* Is NON addictive</p>
<p><strong>WHAT IS AN ADAPTOGEN?</strong></p>
<p> An adaptogen is a substance which raises the non-specific resistance in an organism.</p>
<p>Adaptogens enable the body to enhance its power of resistance and adapt to external conditions.</p>
<p>They work with the body&#8217;s natural rhythms to help rebuild weak immune systems, re-mineralize poorly nourished bodies, and increase</p>
<p>energy and endurance.</p>
<p>As an adaptogen, maca works broadly to contribute to overall well being. It nourishes and calms the nerves with calcium, phosphorus, vitamins B1 &amp; B12  and fatty acids: all of which work beneficially on the nervous system.</p>
<p>It stimulates the appetite and aids in digestion with calcium, vitamins B1, B2, B12, and fatty acids. Its phosphorus is a primary building block in the cell fuels Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) and glucose-6-phosphate (G6P).</p>
<p>At the same time it supports the adrenal glands so they don&#8217;t have to rely on damaging corticol to fuel the</p>
<p>body. Its sterols, calcium, and vitamin C help build muscle mass and its starches aid in physical endurance. Its alkaloids help the body assimilate all these nutrients just where they are required.</p>
<p> <strong>Maca &#8211; An Endocrin</strong><strong>e Adaptogen! </strong></p>
<p><img src="http://www.macaroot.com/images/happycoupledrinkingmaca.jpg" alt="happycoupledrinkingmaca Maca: The Endocrine Adaptogen!" hspace="8" vspace="6" width="125" height="112" align="right" title="Maca: The Endocrine Adaptogen!" />The endocrine system is a collection of glands that produce chemical &#8220;messengers&#8221; called hormones essential for normal bodily functions. A wide variety of physiological processes are carried out unconsciously by these &#8220;messengers&#8221;. Once released they flow directly into the bloodstream and are transported to organs and tissues throughout the entire body.</p>
<p>Scientists and doctors are now finding maca to be one of the best natural ways to regulate and support endocrine health. This action regulates metabolism, energy levels, growth, sexual development and the sense of well being and attitude.</p>
<p>Thankfully, maca does not contain hormones itself. Instead it provides a unique set of nutrients that directly fuel the endocrine system and help the glands to produce vital hormones in precise dosages predetermined by one&#8217;s own body.</p>
<p><strong>Vitamins:</strong> B1, B2, and C. <strong></p>
<p>Alkaloids:</strong> 4 novel alkaloids: macaina 1, 2, 3, and 4. These are responsible for activating hormone regulators located in the brain that in turn regulate the metabolism of calcium and phosphorus in the blood.</p>
<p><strong>Macronutrients:</strong> Essential vitamins and minerals, nutritive properties help convalescent people or patients who are diagnosed with anemia. <strong></p>
<p>Proteins:</strong> Rich in bio-available maca proteins with an average of 11% per gram in the dry root.</p>
<p><strong>Micronutrients:</strong> Minerals which help with the production of antibodies.</p>
<p><strong>Fibre: Loaded with cellulose and lignin which stimulate intestinal operations.</p>
<p></strong></p>
<p><strong>Carbohydrates</strong></p>
<p><strong>Tannins</p>
<p></strong></p>
<p><strong>Fatty Acids:</strong> Contains over 20 fatty acids<strong></p>
<p>Sodium</strong></p>
<p><strong>Calcium</strong></p>
<p><strong>Bismuth:</strong> Known to participate in the processing against gastritis caused by bacteria.</p>
<p><strong>Potassium:</strong> Participates in the regulation of osmotic pressure; its activity is carried out inside the cells.</p>
<p><strong>Copper:</strong> The probable participant in the formation of hemoglobin. Lack of copper can greatly decrease the amount of essential enzymes for the organism.</p>
<p><strong>Zinc:</strong> Serves as a cofactor of dehydrogenises and carbonic anhydrite; its lack can cause skin rashes, taste disturbances, and mental lethargy. <strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>Fructose:</strong> A sugar used by the seminal plasma for the production of semen/ or spermatozoa.</p>
<p><strong>Phosphorus:</strong> Regulates the transmission of neuromuscular chemicals and electrical stimuli. Important for the hemostasis of calcium and the reactions of lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins. The body&#8217;s chemical energy is stored in phosphate compounds.</p>
<p><strong>Iron:</strong> Vital component of hemoglobin and certain respiratory enzymes. Increased iron intake is important during excessive menses and other instances of blood loss. Deficiency results in anemia, poor growth or difficult pregnancies.</p>
<p><strong>Manganese:</strong> In an experimental diet of this element, results demonstrated that it induced growth in animals.</p>
<p><strong>Starch:</strong> Calcium and iron, forming chemical compounds that influence the nutrition and health of the consumer.</p>
<p><strong>Silicon:</strong> Helps the connective tissues, including the aorta, trachea, tendons, bones, and skin.</p>
<p><strong>Magnesium:</strong> Essential for protein synthesis, and activities of muscles and nerves. Deficiency of quality magnesium can cause changes in heart and skeletal muscles.</p>
<p><strong>WHY DOES MACA INCREASE LIBIDO IN MEN &amp; WOMEN?</strong><img src="http://www.macasex.com/images/couple.jpg" alt="couple Maca: The Endocrine Adaptogen!" hspace="8" vspace="8" width="209" height="298" align="right" title="Maca: The Endocrine Adaptogen!" /></p>
<p>Alkaloids were first shown to work on the hypothalamus-pituitary axis by Dr. Gloria Chacon de Popovici in 1962. In her studies she found maca greatly increased fertility in both sexes.</p>
<p>The peer reviewed journal &#8220;Urology&#8221; reported a Chinese University trial which proved an increase of nearly 100% in the sexual frequency of animals that had been fed maca. One study claimed that males had a 180% increase in semen production.</p>
<p>In females, Dr. Chacon found that maca increased egg follicle maturation and increased the number of follicles. In males, she noticed increased sperm count as well as increased sperm motility. Thus she deduced that maca wasn&#8217;t producing hormones in either sex, but rather stimulating each sex to respond in a gender appropriate manner.</p>
<p>Since then, several studies have been conducted on men, and conclusions verified the reports. Science is now showing what Peruvians already knew. Glucosinates (found in plants of the Cruciferae family), specifically methoxybenzly isothiocyanate, are implicated for their action on reproductive hormonal processes while the amino acid L-arginine found in maca is believed to stimulate sexual desire in both sexes and aids erectile tissue response in men.</p>
<p>Since the results of the Chinese test studies on maca and sex were published, many men across North America are offering their own testimonials: reporting revived sexual abilities and stamina, making 60 feel like 16 again. Many women, soothed by the calming effect of maca provides, claim than maca can ease hormone irregularities, restore muscle tone, add moisture and give a youthful glow to the skin. Never mind about the sex, that&#8217;s only a sign of good endocrine health, which rejuvenates us all.</p>
