Product Description

Lepidium Meyenii Extract

Lepidium meyenii, also called maca, is a vegetable belonging to the broccoli family. It resembles a turnip and has a history of being used as an aphrodisiac.

Maca is an herbaceous biennial plant of the crucifer family native to the high Andes of Peru around Lake Junin, It is used as a root vegetable, a medicinal herb, and a supposed aphrodisiac. Its Spanish and Quechua names include maca-maca, maino, ayak chichira, and ayak willku. Introduced to other parts of Peru or foreign countries, it did not obtain satisfactory results caused by stunted growth. In china, the main planting area of maca is located at Yunnan Province.

Recommended dosage, active amounts, other details

The standard dose for maca is 1,500-3,000mg.

Maca can be supplemented by eating maca root, or through a maca extract. Extracts should be water or ethyl acetate-based.

Maca should be taken daily, alongside food.

Traditionally, maca is treated as a food product, rather than a dietary supplement. Animal studies use 1,000-2,200mg/kg bodyweight doses of maca, which translates into:

10.9-24g of the maca vegetable for a 150lb person

14.5-32g of the maca vegetable for a 200lb person

18.1-40g of the maca vegetable for a 250lb person
