Surprisingly Resilient Maca - Peruvian Cress

This remarkable plant (Lepidium mayenii) from the Peruvian Andes, where it is grown at extreme altitudes (4000 m a.s.l.). It is incredibly resilient and can survive and grow in conditions where most other plant species would not survive, such as low temperatures, strong winds, and intense UV radiation. Its ability to adapt to harsh environments enriches it with nutrients and substances that positively impact the human body, enhancing resistance to both physical and mental stress.

Maca, also known as “Peruvian Ginseng” or “Plant Viagra,” is used worldwide to support male fertility, as an aphrodisiac, immune booster, and natural hormonal balancer. 

The underground tuberous root is exceptionally nutritious and is considered the main source of its effects. The root/hypocotyl is characterized by a great variety of shapes, sizes, and colors, and the content of the most valuable components. What is the taste of Peruvian cress, or as it is also commonly called, mountain cress? The best comparison would be with licorice and caramel; the flavor is earthy, sweet-bitter, to spicy. Red maca is considered the sweetest, yellow the least, and black is somewhere in the middle, but also the richest in antioxidants and other active substances. Surprisingly, maca belongs to the Brassica family and is related to more commonly known vegetables like cabbage and radish. 

This unique plant contains nearly all essential amino acids, twenty fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, and specific substances - macaenes and macamides, which endow it with exceptional properties. Not only for athletes, it provides energy, increases endurance, and facilitates recovery, preventing the wear and tear of tendons, joints, and bones. With its ability to positively influence physical condition, mental performance, and reflexes, maca began being used as a dietary supplement for astronauts. Dried maca is rich in amino acids, iodine, iron, and magnesium, and due to this unique composition, it is valued for its antioxidant and energizing effects.

Studies show that maca favorably affects memory, cognitive functions, which include the ability to learn, concentrate, and maintain attention, improves concentration and even protects the nervous system against neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease. It also has a significant effect on fertility, especially in men, supports vitality, and improves sexual desire. It contains many powerful antioxidants and the main polysaccharide  MP-1 with the potential for preventing alcohol-induced liver damage, besides proving effective for its protection, mitigating symptoms of depression and menopause, and improving psychological well-being. It also helps lower cholesterol, protect the skin, hasten wound healing, and enhance the immune system.

Natural concentrated extract form 10:1 Maca - Peruvian Cress 𝒟𝓇. 𝐿𝓊𝒸𝓊𝓁𝓁𝓊𝓈 refers to the production and fact that to obtain 1 kg of pure extract, up to 10 kg of dried root is needed, guaranteeing high product quality, while also preserving its nutritional values for up to seven years. Through a capsule, it provides more precise dosing, (compared to fresh) allowing reliable results and ensuring the maximum extraction of its health benefits. Utilize the so-called “adaptogen” and “biostimulant” hidden in a dietary supplement that adapts to each organism and balances overall equilibrium in it, because Maca acts precisely and only where it is truly needed! 

With the strong will to survive it brings... support for mental well-being and balance (reduction of stress and anxiety) strengthening the immune system, overall vitality, and memorylowering cholesterol levelssupport for fertility mitigation of hormonal changesprotection and resistance of the skin (against UV radiation) increased physical performance and efficiencydisease prevention

A nagging cough and blocked sinuses? Make yourself a natural remedy without any chemicals

Every winter the same thing happens, as it has for centuries, until one wonders why medical science hasn’t managed to develop a 100% effective cure for a simple ‘little cold’. First you feel tired, by evening you’ve got chills, and by morning you know you simply won’t make it through the day and will have to stay in bed again to get over this unpleasant condition. Well, yes. Stay in bed. If that were all, we’d manage to get through it somehow. But how, when you can’t catch your breath, your airways are blocked and, above all, there’s that unpleasant, exhausting cough…

How to prepare your body for chilly weather: 5 daily rituals for a strong immune system

Do you know that feeling? You step out of the house in the morning, greeted by thick fog; a cold wind chills you to the bone as it ‘sneaks’ under your coat; and on the tram or in the office, you can already hear the first coughs coming from all around. Autumn and winter have their undeniable charm – warm jumpers, evenings under a blanket and a crackling fire. But for our bodies, this is a period of a real ordeal.

Lecithin and its effects: Why does our body need it so much?

Lecithin and its effects: Why does our body need it so much?

Whilst browsing in a health food shop, my eye was caught by a supplement labelled ‘Lecithin’, with the text: ‘Soya lecithin – food for the brain, heart and liver’. I paused for a moment, because it reminded me: this is the secret ingredient my granny used to add to her breakfast, remarking with a smile, ‘It’s the secret to a good memory and a strong heart’ (she always used to say that). At the time, I just grinned and thought to myself. After all, grandmothers have secret recipes for everything from homemade ointments to teas that cure all ills (it’s a shame they don’t cure a broken heart). Even though it wasn’t yesterday, I know that my grandmother really did know the names of my classmates, even though I’ve forgotten where I’ve just put my keys. That’s exactly why I decided to find out whether it’s actually necessary, or just another one of those gadgets.

Next-generation vitamin C: How does VEG-C differ from standard supplements?

Most of us associate vitamin C with the classic sour tablet. In fact, it’s a vitamin that plays a vital role in the body, helping us to cope with stress, supporting our immune system, collagen production and iron absorption. And as it doesn’t last long in the body, we need to replenish it daily. During periods of stress or illness, our need for it can even increase several-fold. And honestly, do you know anyone who isn’t stressed these days?

How to boost your energy with natural energisers

How to boost your energy with natural energisers

We live in an age where we are expected to perform at 100 per cent all the time. When fatigue sets in, most of us automatically reach for a quick fix in the form of a coffee or a can of energy drink. Although synthetic caffeine and refined sugar give us an immediate energy boost, this rapid surge is often followed by a sharp crash, which is frequently even more severe than the initial high. Nature, however, offers us more sophisticated and gentler tools that support our bodies in naturally producing and maintaining energy.

Get histamine under control with Histamin Kontrol

Get histamine under control with Histamin Kontrol

Someone once called allergies the scourge of the 20th century. And they were right. These days, it’s rare to find anyone in your circle who doesn’t suffer from some form of allergy or intolerance, especially if they live in a city. Pollen forecasts have become a regular feature of weather reports, and warnings about gluten, milk and starch appear on food labels. Quite simply, we live in a world where the human body has not had time to adapt to all these stimuli, or where, through living in a sterile environment, it has lost the ability to resist external stimuli.
