What is maca root?
Although maca root has been used in traditional medicine for thousands of years, it is only in recent years that modern science has begun to apply the plant more widely. Maca is actually a cruciferous vegetable that is very similar to radishes. It comes in many colours, from white to purple and black. USA medical maca capsules contain black, red and yellow maca root extract.
Effects of maca root on the body
Like Ashwagandha, maca root is an adaptogenic plant, which means it naturally helps to rebalance the body and helps to relieve the stress of everyday living.
Maca is proven to be rich in amino acids, phytonutrients, essential fatty acids, vitamins, minerals and trace elements. Examples include calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, iodine, iron, B vitamins, beta-carotene, and vitamins C and D.
Not for nothing is it called a "superfood", as maca root is also rich in alkaloids, flavonoids, glycosides and phytosteroids, which contribute to its energising, vitalising and immune-boosting properties.
- May help combat stress
Adaptogens (including maca) can help stimulate the body's stress defence system by balancing the body's hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. The HPA axis is responsible for how the central nervous and endocrine systems respond to stress. When we feel stressed, cortisol levels rise. But scientific studies in rats show that eating maca can help prevent cortisol levels from rising. - Can increase energy levels
One common reason people consume maca is for its decaffeinated energy drinks. Although more scientific studies need to be done to confirm this link, a study of 175 people concluded that maca is associated with increased energy levels. In the study, people who consumed 3 grams of maca over 12 weeks reported experiencing a greater energy boost than those who did not consume maca. Because of this reaction, if you are sensitive to herbs, it is best to consume maca in the morning. - It may help to relieve the symptoms of menopause
Scientific literature shows that maca supports the body during this stage of life without altering estrogen levels. Although more research is needed, one study found that menopausal women who consumed maca experienced fewer hot flashes and night sweats than those who did not consume maca. - May improve bone health
The same study that found a link between maca and a reduction in menopause symptoms also showed that participants' bone density increased after consuming maca. Another study on rats also found a link between maca and strong bones. The authors of the study said this is probably because maca contains polyunsaturated fatty acids, an important nutrient for bone health. - May increase libido
According to experts, increasing libido is one of the best-known properties of maca root, and this link has been supported by a number of scientific studies. Maca has aphrodisiac properties, and again, this is without altering hormone levels, due to its adaptogenic properties. Experts suggest that this response may be linked to maca's stress-reducing, mood-boosting and cautionary energy-boosting effects. - May improve male fertility
Research suggests that maca consumption may be linked to higher sperm count and increased sperm motility. According to experts, the importance of maca consumption is increased by the fact that infertility cases can also stem from male infertility problems, as well as female infertility problems, so this beneficial effect should not be overlooked.
