Black Maca

Maca is a plant belonging to the cabbage family(Lepidium meyenii). It is a vegetable native to Peru, and its root has been used as a food source among indigenous peoples living in the Andes for thousands of years.

Black maca is a variety of maca root that naturally comes in black or dark brown. It is a less common type of maca than yellow or red maca. Black maca grows at altitudes above 4,000 meters above sea level.
Our formula contains a high concentration of black matzo extract at 10:1.

What does the research say about the effects and properties of maca root?

Maca is valued for its potential health-promoting and aphrodisiac properties. In naturally occurring maca, we can find many nutrients, such as protein, fiber, carbohydrates, fats and amino acids. In addition, maca is an excellent source of micronutrients, including vitamins and minerals - such as iron, calcium, copper, magnesium, potassium, zinc and iodine. Below, we've compiled a list of maca's properties as indicated by modern scientific research.

• Improved libido: Maca is often used as an aphrodisiac. Some studies have shown that it can improve libido in both men and women1,2,3,4,5,6.

• Improved memory and concentration: Regular consumption of maca can help improve cognitive function7,8,9.

• Energy and vitality: Maca is popular among athletes who take the root to improve their body's performance6,7,8.

• Mood improvement: Maca may have the effect of improving mood and reducing symptoms of depression in some people9,10,11,12.

• Hormonal balance: Maca contains compounds that may help regulate hormones, especially in menopausal women13,14,15.

• Sexual function: Some studies suggest that maca may improve semen quality, sperm health and potency in men3,4,16,17.

However, it is important to note that the effects of supplementation will also be influenced by a healthy lifestyle and balanced diet. The product should not be used as a substitute for a varied diet.

What exactly is maca root?

Maca root, also known as pepper grass or Peruvian ginseng, is native to Peru, where it has been cultivated for more than 2,000 years. Maca is a root vegetable that occurs naturally at an altitude of about 3,500 meters above sea level among the Peruvian Andes. Its most prized part is the root, which resembles a radish and has a nutty flavor. Maca has been used for centuries by indigenous Inca peoples as a source of nourishment and the plant's valuable properties.

Today, maca root is widely used as a dietary supplement and is exported to many countries around the world. However, it is in Peru that maca root is still considered a national treasure and is prized by the Peruvian people for its unique properties and traditional use in folk herbalism.

What distinguishes black maca from other types of maca root?

Red maca, yellow maca and black maca are the three most popular varieties of Peruvian ginseng. The first thing that strikes you here in terms of differences is, of course, the color, but it doesn't stop there. Each variety naturally contains a slightly different composition, which means their nutritional value can also vary slightly. Black maca is considered the variety of maca with the greatest health-promoting properties. Studies have shown that black maca contains a higher concentration of phytonutrients (including antioxidants, which regulate the effects of free radicals) than other maca varieties. In addition, black maca has a sizable amount of protein, low fat content and is rich in amino acids.

All varieties of matzo have similar properties. Among them, we can mention improved libido and fertility, increased energy levels and beneficial effects on memory. However, each type of matzo may have a slightly different effect on our bodies due to its unique components. For example, some studies have shown that the black variety of matzo may have effects that improve semen quality and cognitive function18,19.

What is the best way to take maca?

The dosage and method of use of maca root depends on the specific product and the manufacturer's recommendations. In our formulation, we have included maca root extract at a concentration of 10:1 and recommend taking 1 capsule (430 mg) daily.

This differs from the often recommended dose, which is 1 to 3 grams of dried matzo root per day. However, it should be remembered that the extract contained in the formula has a high concentration (10:1), so the dosage should also be different from that of maca powder. It's also a good idea to consult a doctor or nutritionist before starting supplementation to determine the appropriate dosage and method of use.

If you're not keen on swallowing capsules, maca can also be added to various foods and drinks to increase their nutritional value. Maca is a superfood (meaning it has rich nutritional value) that you can easily enrich a smoothie, juice or protein shake with. You can also consume it with milk or water. Maca root will also work great as an addition to dishes such as oatmeal, salads and soups.

It is important to remember that maca root supplementation should not replace a balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. Also, the recommended daily serving for consumption should not be exceeded. The product should not be used by people who are allergic to any of the ingredients.
