Maca, also called Maca-Maca, Ginseng Peruvian, , is
a native plant of the Peruvian central cordillera,
domesticated for 3.600 years.
This plant owes its fabulous properties to the richness
of the ground of this area (Cerro of Pasco, Junin)
out of minerals and oligoelements.
Maca is a plant with very short development. Its color
is yellow or purple, the flowers are of ivory color.
Used as well for its culinary qualities as its curative,
the maca is regarded as "food of the famine",
paramount in the preparation of the meals in the event
of food shortage.
Incas were large consumers of maca, bringing them
a great resistance to the climate of high altitude
and the rigorous cold air.
-
NASA has, since 1996, used the MACA in the food of
the ASTRONAUTS.

are the principal components of the "VIAGRA".

- Maca is IDEAL for the MODES, thanks to its low content
of fat (less than 2%).
- The large quantity of proteins combined with iron
and vitamins, make Maca a source of ENERGY and the
B complex, in particular the vitamin B12, supports
the nervous system, helps to fight against FATIGUE
and STRESS.
- Its anti-asthenic properties of anabolisant type
led the body-builders to use Maca successfully as
a NATURAL ALTERNATIVE to the ANABOLISANTS.
- One can as well recommend Maca to stimulate the
LIBIDO in men and women and to fight against STERILITY,
due to nutritional deficiencies, in particular to
the lack of zinc, iron, vitamin B12 and amino acids.
- The APHRODISIACS properties are due to its isothiocyanate
of methoxybenzyl contents.
- For its properties against IMPOTENCY, Maca facilitates
erection.
Dr. Gary F Gordon, ex President of the American College
for the Advance of Medicine, tested Maca personally
and noted a stimulation of the erectil tissues and
said "Maca is the natural alternative to Viagra".
He also added "Maca is a possibility to standardize
the steroidal hormones like the testosterone, the
progesterone and the estrogens." (sic).
- Maca can be recommended in the cases of OSTEOPOROSE
thanks to its high calcium content and the boron,
which facilitate the absorption of calcium.
- Thanks to the aromatic steroids and glucosinolates
(hormonal regulators), one regards Maca as an important
food to fight against the effects of MENOPAUSE.
- Maca acts as stimulation on the pituitary gland
and the hypothalamus, modulating secretions of hormones
LH, FSH, HCG and prolactin and consequently has an
important role in the correct operation of other endocrine
glands like the OVARIES, the TESTICLES, the SUPRARENAL
GLANDS, the PANCREAS and THYROID GLAND.
- Maca allows an increase of 50% of the production
of the hydroepiandriosterone hormone, known as the
HORMONE of the YOUTH, which normally decreases with
age.
- The proportion of Essential Fatty Acids, Omega 3,
6 C and 9 C is very important. These Omegas are necessary
for the human life and health. According to certain
studies, practically 90% of the people have a deficiency
in at least one of them ("The Barron Report"
- vol. 6, Issue 1 - January 1998).
The absence of these Essential Fatty Acids was related
to many current diseases such as LOSS of the HAIR,
LOSS of VITALITY, SKIN DISORDERS, CIRCULATION PROBLEMS
and the HEART, and all immunological disorders and
even the ARTHRITIS.

of sesquiterpene. 2 phytochimics of Chuchuhuasi the
mayteine and the alkaloids of maytansine are well
known since the Sixties for their antitumor activity.
In the Sixties, an American pharmaceutical company
discovered the immunostimulant characteristics in
the sheet and the bark. In 1977, the researchers announced
that the extracts of the alcohol of the bark had anti-inflammatory
and analgesic properties and confirmed the traditional
applications for the arthritic pains, confirmed by
Italian researchers in 1980 and Japanese in 1993.
In the Seventies, the Italian researchers identified
the antitumor characteristics of Chuchuhuasi and allotted
the effects to the tingenone and pristimerine and
also in 1999 to the sesquiterpens.
