What is Maca?
Maca root has been cultivated for more than 2000 years by the Andean people. Its actually one of the few edible plants that can survive at those altitudes up there in Peruvian Andes, well above 13000 feet. And interestingly, It also was used as a form of payment of Spanish imperial taxes And the demand for maca, really has grown recently largely because of the claims for boosting libido and fertility, which has positioned the market for maca in a positive trajectory up until 2030 and beyond. Largely because of the compounds in maca that make it so unique. The alkaloids, the macamides, and the macaridines.
How Does Maca Work? Does Maca Increase Testosterone?
I think is important that you know is. That even in the systematic reviews surrounding the study of maca. For some reason, the total number of trials, the total sample size, and the average methodological quality of the primary studies are just too limited to draw firm conclusions.
Does Maca Work Libido?
What we also know is that, it contains Macamides, which are very unique molecules derived from free-fatty acids produced by maca and resemble almost identically to our natural cannabinoids in our brain like Anandamide. Which is your bodys own natural endogenous cannabinoid neurotransmitter.
Maca Root for Libido
When in it comes to the study on libido. The largest one we have was back in 2015 in which 45 women who were experiencing antidepressant-induced sexual dysfunction found that taking 3,000 mg of maca root per day for 12 weeks significantly improved sexual function and libido compared with a placebo. And the “maca was well tolerated”.
► www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti...
Maca Root for Fertility
For fertility, a lot of the studies are done on fertility for men, showing an enhancing property. But of course lacked enough of a sample size to really give full confidence. 20 volunteers in this study to be exact.
► pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26421...
Maca Root for Menopause. Does Maca Help Menopause?
“these RCTs tested the effects of maca on menopausal symptoms in healthy perimenopausal, early postmenopausal, and late postmenopausal women. Using the Kupperman Menopausal Index and the Greene Climacteric Score, all RCTs demonstrated favorable effects of maca, which included hot flashes, vaginal dryness, mood swings, sleep problems, and irritability."
► www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NB...
How Long Does Maca Root Take to Work?
It should take about 6 to 16 weeks to see if you really notice a difference. It should have made some type of change at that point. If not then its up to you to continue or stop taking it. Always speak to your doctor first before trying out a new supplement to see if you are the right candidate for it.
Maca Root Dose. What Dose for Maca? How Much Maca Per Day?
As a rule of thumb, dont take any more maca root than the manufacturer's recommended dosage which you find on the back of you bottle. And since it is a supplement, its not regulated, so youre going to have to make sure youre using one that is third party tested.
General Dose: 1.5 to 3.5 grams daily for six to 16 weeks.
And speaking of purity of the ingredients, Some Chinese maca crops have been genetically modified - which means they are not the same as the traditional maca grown in the Peruvian highlands.
Side Effects of Maca Root. Is Maca Safe?
The Side effects of maca root are generally mild, and some dont experience any side effects at all. But for others, the common side effects are for the most part stomach aches or headaches. Subjectively reported side effects from certain users taking maca root are altered menstrual cycles, moodiness, cramps, gastritis, and insomnia.
► www.hindawi.com/journals/bmri...
So if you experience any of these, you may want to consider stopping or speaking to your doctor about them.
Maca and Cancer. Who should avoid taking Maca Root.
Because maca extracts may mimic estrogen, it is best to avoid it in breast, uterine, and ovarian cancers, endometriosis, or if you have uterine fibroids. Theres just not enough information to rule out the risk in these settings.

Losing my sex drive has been horrible for me. I lost it after an abusive relationship which subsequently lead me to take SSRIs. The combination of these factors has wiped out my sex drive, so even when I have sex the drive isn’t strong enough to be enjoyable, reinforcing my aversion to sex. Going to pick up some maca now. I hope it helps 🤞

I’ve stopped taking my biweekly hormone, patch and progesterone pills. I’ve even stopped, taking my levothyroxine for my Hashimoto’s hypothyroid, and I stopped taking my blood pressure pills…. I got a call one day from my doctors office and they were telling me to come into the office so they can get my liver checked… That raised so many flags so when I went in, I asked the doctor why do they need to test my liver and he downplayed it and said it was just a precautionary and I seen right through the BS… at this point, I am sick of sick care and want to seek healthcare. Today is my third day of taking sunfood, super foods, organic Maca extreme. After watching your video, I feel very confident that I am on the road to true healthcare, especially as I continue to eat the right foods and stay away from processed junk foods.

I've taken peruvian black maca for a few weeks at a time, 1 g a day . I definitely noticed an increase in my libido during that time (though, I generally keep my sex drive in check) My girlfriend noticed an increase in her sex drive as well, and hers is much lower than mine. Some extra energy after waking up was noticeable to. Here's to my anecdote.

15g of maca root in a smoothie once a day in the morning increases the volume of male ejaculate (load). If you want to shoot impressive loads take maca root. It takes about a week. Black maca root works best. No joke, big thick ropey loads. I like the Anthony's black maca root powder. Don't mess up and get the yellow or red. Black maca root powder is what you want.
