Maca deserves to be labelled a superfood hero. It is magnificent. You will never need to rely on taking sugar, coffee or any other stimulant to get you through the day. Maca naturally increases energy and stamina. A friend of mine, who is the queen of natural health, in my opinion, came to stay with me for about a month. One of the remedies she carried with her was Maca. I used it in smoothies daily and wow, did it give me a boost. I also noticed it made me a little more interested in my long suffering partner (cough, if you know what I mean). It’s not called the Peruvian Ginseng for no reason!.
Maca has many other health benefits too. Check out this neat article from DrAxe – Top 5 Maca Root Benefits. I have also added as a bonus, a couple delicious smoothie recipes that will give you a boost. Enjoy.

In fact, maca has such powerful hormone creating properties that it is often used to increase fertility for those trying to have a baby. Both sexes consume maca and even if they had problems conceiving before, maca seems to work like magic. Please note maca should not be consumed while you are pregnant. Stop as soon as you confirm that you are pregnant.
