Maca: the Endocrine Adaptagen
The endocrine system is a collection of glands that produce chemical "messengers" called hormones essential for normal bodily functions. A wide variety of physiological processes are carried out unconsciously by these "messengers". Once released they flow directly into the bloodstream and are transported to organs and tissues throughout the entire body.
Scientists and doctors are now finding maca to be one of the best natural ways to regulate and support endocrine health. This action regulates metabolism, energy levels, growth, sexual development and the sense of well being and attitude.
Thankfully, maca does not contain hormones itself. Instead it provides a unique set of nutrients that directly fuel the endocrine system and help the glands to produce vital hormones in precise dosages predetermined by one's own body.
An adaptogen is a substance which raises the non-specific resistance in an organism. Adaptogens enable the body to enhance its power of resistance and adapt to external conditions. They work with the body's natural rhythms to help rebuild weak immune systems, re-mineralize poorly nourished bodies, and increase energy and endurance.
Allergy Information: This product was manufactured in a facility that uses nuts. Product may contain traces of nut meats.
Important Information:
Maca is considered a superfood because of its super-rich nutrient dense properties. Maca has been a secret of the Inca for centuries, and a key to their long life and great health as a people.
Our Roasted Maca Powder benefits:
Vitamins: B1, B2, and C.
Vitamin B1 helps the body's cells convert carbohydrates into energy. It
is also essential for the functioning of the heart, muscles, and
nervous system.
B2 works in concert with the other B vitamins. It is important for body
growth and red cell production, and helps in releasing energy from
carbohydrates.
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is involved in oxidation-reduction reactions.
Alkaloids:
4 novel alkaloids: macaina 1, 2, 3, and 4. These are responsible for
activating hormone regulators located in the brain that in turn
regulate the metabolism of calcium and phosphorus in the blood.
Macronutrients: Essential vitamins and minerals, nutritive properties help convalescent people or patients who are diagnosed with anemia.
Proteins: Rich in bio-available maca proteins with an average of 11% per gram in the dry root.
Micronutrients: Minerals which help with the production of antibodies.
Fiber:
Loaded with cellulose and lignin which stimulate intestinal operations.
Investigators claim fibers such as these diminishes the risk of cancer
of the large intestine by helping the organism eliminate waste and
toxins produced within the body.
Carbohydrates: Rich in quality carbs; combined with the alkaloids and other nutrients is the source for sustainable energy.
Tannins:
Useful in treatment of diarrhea. Combined with other medicines, it has
the utility of treating inflammatory processes like ulcers, sores, etc.
Fatty Acids: Contains over 20 fatty acids
Sodium:
Along with potassium, it was discovered that an increase in the daily
diet of the sodium-potassium relation helps reduce arterial pressure/
hypertension. Nevertheless, an excessive increase of this relation
could give rise to a diminution of the susceptibility to the
bascule-cerebral accidents that do not depend on arterial pressure.
Calcium:
Higher concentrations of calcium than in milk; indispensible for the
nerves and circulatory system and the formation of bones, teeth, and
vital heart functions.
Bismuth: Known to participate in the processing against gastritis caused by bacteria.
Potassium: Participates in the regulation of osmotic pressure; its activity is carried out inside the cells.
Copper:
The probable participant in the formation of hemoglobin. Lack of copper
can greatly decrease the amount of essential enzymes for the organism.
Zinc:
Serves as a cofactor of dehydrogenises and carbonic anhydrite; its lack
can cause skin rashes, taste disturbances, and mental lethargy.
Fructose: A sugar used by the seminal plasma for the production of semen/ or spermatozoa.
Phosphorus:
Regulates the transmission of neuromuscular chemicals and electrical
stimuli. Important for the hemostasis of calcium and the reactions of
lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins. The body's chemical energy is
stored in phosphate compounds.
Iron:
Vital component of hemoglobin and certain respiratory enzymes.
Increased iron intake is important during excessive menses and other
instances of blood loss. Deficiency results in anemia, poor growth or
difficult pregnancies.
Manganese: In an experimental diet of this element, results demonstrated that it induced growth in animals.
Starch: Calcium and iron, forming chemical compounds that influence the nutrition and health of the consumer.
Silicon: Helps the connective tissues, including the aorta, trachea, tendons, bones, and skin.
Magnesium:
Essential for protein synthesis, and activities of muscles and nerves.
Deficiency of quality magnesium can cause changes in heart and skeletal
muscles.
