As an adaptogen, Maca can help balance, strengthen and support any area of the body under compromise due to stress.
Maca Live™ is a powerful adaptogen, meaning it helps to restore balance or homeostasis to the body. Rather than addressing a specific symptom, adaptogens are used to improve the overall adaptability of the whole system. Maca is also commonly called "Peruvian Ginseng" -- other adaptogen herbs are ginseng and astragalus.
The main effects of adaptogens are an increased availability of energy during the day, a reduction of stress feelings, increased endurance, greater mental alertness, and deep and restful sleep. Also, adaptogens significantly accelerate the recovery process after illness. According to modern science adaptogens are natural plant products that increase the body's ability to cope with internal and external stress factors, and normalize the functions of the organism. They help maintain the stable internal environment inside the organism known as homeostasis. An important characteristic is that they are safe, possessing few known side-effects.
MACA is considered by top researchers to be a true adaptogen, working with the bodies natural rhythms to help rebuild week immune systems, re-mineralize poorly nourished bodies, and increase energy and endurance.

Other adaptogenic benefits include increased energy, stamina, libido, sexual function, immune function, mental clarity and a sense of well-being.
