Amazing Maca Testimonial for Menopause

“I have been using this product for a week, and I can’t believe how much better I’m feeling both physically and mentally. I have enough energy now to go through the day without a nap. No more hot flashes. No more mood swing. Even allergy symptoms (runny nose and watery eyes) have disappeared. I’m amazed at how much havoc an imbalanced endocrine system can create, but this product will help your body repair itself to its optimal condition. I am very pleased at the result in just one week, and look forward to how my health will improve as I continue to use this product. I recommend it highly.” – Sophie

Coconut Maca Smoothie and Menopause Info

An excellent Maca smoothie and article from Nena Niessen on Huffington Post.

The Recipe:

1 tbsp of Maca
Water and pulp from one small coconut
1/3 cup raw almond
¼ cup of ice
¼ cup of water
½ tsp Cinnamon
Nutmeg if desired
Blend in Vita-Mix and enjoy.

From the article:

Menopause: Maca root is often used instead of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in menopausal women … While HRT stimulates hormone production and can cause ovaries to atrophy, maca root simply helps to balance it without damaging a woman’s body.

Infertility: Many women use maca root supplements to help combat infertility as well. While there are few statistics available on the effectiveness of the treatment, the Australian magazine “Good Medicine” states that laboratory studies of rats have found that they had improved fertility after eating maca.

Expert Insight: “Whenever possible, I prefer to use maca therapy rather than hormone replacement therapy because HRT actually ages the body diminishing the hormone producing capability of the glands,” says Dr. Rebbe Gabriel Cousens, a diplomat of the American Board of Holistic Medicine. “Maca has proved to be very effective with menopausal patients in eliminating hot flashes and depression and in increasing energy levels.”

Maca Improves Memory

A study conducted earlier this year suggests yellow maca, the type used in Peruvian Naturals maca, improves memory and cognitive function.

At the medical school of Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos in Lima, researchers tested mice in how quickly they could locate a platform in a shallow pool. Those who’d ingested higher levels of maca consistently located and mounted the platform quicker than those who hadn’t.

In addition, after analyzing the different mice’s brains, they found those who’d taken maca had improved immune system / antioxidant function due to an inhibition in the chemical butyrylcholinesterase.

Cat’s Claw for Crohn’s Disease

One of the key symptoms of Crohn’s Disease is inflammation in the intestines. Cat’s Claw reduces inflammation, making it an effective, natural treatment for the symptoms of Crohn’s Disease.

According to this Herb Wisdom article on Cat’s Claw:

The primary mechanism for Cat’s claw anti-inflammatory actions appears to be immunomodulation via suppression of TNF-alpha synthesis.

Cat’s Claw may help create support for the intestinal and immune systems of the body, and may also create intestinal support with its ability to cleanse the entire intestinal tract. This cleansing helps create support for people experiencing different stomach and bowel disorders, including: colitis, Crohn’s disease, irritable bowel syndrome, and leaky bowel syndrome.

Crohn’s Disease wasn’t an ailment common to South America before the Spanish arrived, butto the indigenous peoples of Peru did use Cat’s Claw to treat gastritis and other digestive disorders for its anti-inflammatory properties.

New York Times article on Maca

From New York Times January 2008 article, On a Remote Path to Cures:

That ["Maca imparts energy, sex drive, and stamina"] is supported by studies carried out at the International Potato Center, a Lima-based research center that is internationally financed and staffed. Studies there show maca improves stamina, reduces the risk of prostate cancer and increases the motility, volume and quality of sperm.

Some peer reviewed studies published in the journal Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology backed up those findings.

For centuries, maca has been a revered crop in this austerely beautiful region 155 miles northeast of Lima. Inca warriors ate it before going into battle. Later, Peruvians used it to pay taxes to Spanish conquistadors.

Today, locals consume it boiled alongside dried vicuña meat in soups; or diced with carrots, peas and cauliflowers in salads. Maca flour is used to make sponge cake. Flavored with chocolate, it is made into maca puffs. Villagers offer visitors maca drinks and maca juice; airports sell maca toffees.

Cat’s Claw Testimonials (uña de gato)

“I have Ankylosing Spondylitis and I was leaving on Ibuprofen for the past 4 years. I have been taking this Cat’s Claw for about a month now. It has kept the inflammation down on my spine and joints but It doesn’t take the pain away when I do light physical work.” – B. Berenguer
