Potential Benefits of Maca Extreme
Maca has traditionally been used to enhance strength, increase vigor, support sexual stamina, and relieve stress. Maca Extreme elevates all the benefits of maca for modern-day activities and tastes.
Maca Extreme acts as an adaptogen (like goji berries, reishi mushroom, ginseng, and several other superfoods and superherbs). It has the ability to balance and stabilize energy flow within the body with even higher efficiency than regular maca root. As an adaptogen, Maca Extreme may provide more energy if it is needed, but it will not overstimulate the body if energy reserves are sufficient. Rather than addressing a specific symptom, adaptogens improve the overall adaptability of the whole body, and help it respond to diverse and challenging situations. Along these lines, most studies show that adaptogens also boost immunity and increase the body's overall vitality by 10-15%.
Many of the benefits of Maca Extreme center on its ability to improve oxygen utilization, crucial in a high-altitude environment. In addition to this, Peruvian research points to maca's ability to help improve memory, improve the function of neurotransmitters, and increase the libido. Indeed, research carried out by biologist Gloria Chacon de Popivici, Ph.D. suggests that it is the maca alkaloids that act on the hypothalamus-pituitary glands and the adrenals. She has theorized that by activating these endocrine glands maca is able to increase energy, vitality, as well as healthy sexual desire. Maca Extreme is a more potent, more bio-available form of maca alkaloids, and it takes all maca's benefits to an even higher level. Maca Extreme may help the body perform at optimum levels, even under the high levels of stress found in adventure sports, long working hours, and all the more intense moments of everyday life.
How to Use Maca Extreme
As stated, Maca Extreme is a more powerful form of maca. If you are familiar with maca and have been using it regularly, Sunfood Nutrition™ recommends starting with 1 – 2 teaspoons of Maca Extreme every day. If you are new to maca, please begin more slowly with ½ - 1 teaspoon daily, and build up from there.
Cacao nibs and beans (raw chocolate) from the Amazon basin were traditionally traded for maca from the heights of the Andes by native peoples. These two foods (maca and cacao) have a unique affinity and history that is evident when one eats them together. While maca and cacao have an incredible synergy, Maca Extreme turns up the intensity on this awesome combination. Maca Extreme may be used in place of or in combination with regular maca root powder in all recipes with raw cacao, providing an even more powerful boost to your raw superfood creations.
Maca is a cruciferous vegetable (it is in the same family as common radish, broccoli, cauliflower, mustard greens, arugula, etc.). Like all cruciferous vegetables, maca possesses a slightly spicy taste due to the sulfur oils present. Maca Extreme has an even milder taste than regular maca powder, and so it makes for a perfect addition to both sweet and savory dishes. Try mixing Maca Extreme into raw salad dressings, or try blending it into nut butters, smoothies, elixirs, teas, dips, or spreads.
