Maca Root And What It Can Do For YOU!

74

By ii3rittles

Many people never think that health "issues" can be caused by malnutrition. When infact, I will go as far as saying, 95% of all sickness and disease is caused by malnutrition. Not giving our bodies what they need causes them to not work properly. Levels are thrown off such as blood presure, intestinal bacteria, blood count, hormones and so on.

I have gone through quite a bit of problems myself and while I speak with God and pray, something seems to be saying "I am not taking care of myself". I have began to research natural remedies and ALL of the ones I've tried have helped me in one way or another. A new one I came across is Maca Root. It is a nutty vegetable found in Peru. It has historical benifits as well as modern day benefits. While with everything, no two bodies will agree with the same things. So these results will vary but there is a HIGH success rate in people who have used Maca Root powder, pills or the vegetable its self. Here are some benefits people experience...

- menopause relief

- regulated hormone levels

- acne reduction

- pain relief of joints (EVEN arthritis pain!)

- muscle growth

- increased libido or sex drive (in men & women)

- better hair, skin and nail condition

- lower blood pressure

- weight loss

- increased energy

- increased stamina (which means its EASIER to excersise!)

- regulated body temperature (no more hot flashes, no more chills!)

- normal periods

- relief from PMS

- decreased mood swings

- increases chances of pregnancy

There are more but I will just list the above. I have never tried it but will be ordering some in capsule form and will post what happens with me. I will take it 2 weeks before I post my results. I have unbalanced hormones which is why I am intrigued to try this out. Many people who suffer from unbalanced hormones have libido issues, weight gain and loss problems, and so on. Women in particular will gain weight easily, have abnormal menstrual cycles, PMS, mood swings, depression, have trouble getting pregnant, have little to no libido or sex drive, and hair loss. Those are the most common but they can very from person to person.

*If you have tried Maca Root (of any kind) I would love to hear your results! Leave your results below in a comment.

Maca is great for general health, and the libido bit works as well, in that taking it will make you more prone to sex.... it also reduces blood pressure and definitely works for menstrual problems, both my wife and I take it daily!

But take a look at http://www.tricajus.com/ for a sachet of powder version I know works (we use it) or www.swedishbitters.com (I think) for a loose powder version that you add to cereals or mix with fruit juice....

Awesome! Thanks Aguasilver! I will look into both brands. I'm glad to hear that it works for someone. Libido seems to effect women at such young ages and sexual cripples men in their older ages. It's good to know there are options beyond Viagra. More natural ways to help the body! This will be, I'm sure, a very awesome thing to take when I am married for both me and my future husband, though he don't need the help right now! haha

Right now it would probably be 'light blue touch paper and retire to safe distance' for you, however I'm sixty and my wife is fifty, so staying in good health is more important, and staying active sure helps to feel as young as I do!

I'm delighted to say I never got pass 35 years of age mentally!

Wow that's awesome! I'm glad you and your wife are still healthy. So many people are becoming ill at such young ages because they just don't take care of themselves. I'm starting young! I'm only 23 so I figure if I get my health in check now I won't have "bigger" problems later.

Thanks for your comment Donna Reed! I'm glad it has helped you! From what I understand, the longer you use it, the better the benefits. I have always found it easier to take pill form, if you are interested, I get mine from LuckyVitamin.com I use the brand "NOW" and never had stomach upsets with those pills.
