Maca for Increased Energy
Early Spanish explorers in South America noted that Maca worked both to enhance fertility and as an energizing tonic. Maca has maintained a reputation for boosting energy ever since.

This is most likely a function of the dense nutrition within the root combined with it’s hormone balancing properties and unique nutrients called macamides.
