Maca is a staple of the indigenous people of Peru's diet because of the high nutritional value of Maca that enables them to adapt to their harsh climate and altitude.
Maca is newly arrived in the United States from Peru, where it has been used for centuries for its energy and libido boosting properties. Because it nourishes your entire glandular system, Maca improves bone density, combats chronic fatigue, sharpens mental clarity, improves everyday energy, and enhances athletic ability. This applies to women and men alike, because Maca is an adaptogen which works in harmony with both sexes, from children to old folks. VITA-MYR INCA GOLD MACA is set apart from other Maca products on the market today in that it contains no fillers or inert ingredients.
