Terry Naturally Andes Organic Maca is the vitality secret of the Inca. Part of EuroPharma’s mission is to make America healthier, one person at a time. But that mission really extends well beyond our borders. A case in point? The Fair Trade maca that we use in our Andes Organic Maca supplement, brought to the market with the cooperation of Medicine Hunter, Chris Kilham.
Organically grown and sustainably harvested, the maca we purchase doesn’t just make supplements – it provides a healthy economy and thriving community for Peruvian families who have been the stewards of the Andes for generations. Some of these benefits include upgrading and improving the dental office, equipping and connecting an internet center for the town, and rebuilding and re-furbishing the local school. After all, when it comes to good health, everyone should truly thrive.

Andes Organic Maca – How it Works
Maca (Lepidium Meyenii) could be considered a “Peruvian Power Plant”. Although it is not a stimulant, it has been tradionally used to support healthy libido, energy and stamina. Current research has focused on maca’s support of energy and mood, reproductive health – spern quality and quantity, libido and relief of menopausal symptoms.

Maca (Lepidium meyenii ) could be considered a “Peruvian Power Plant”. Although it is not a stimulant, it has been traditionally used to support healthy libido, energy, and stamina. Current research has focused on maca’s support of energy and mood, reproductive health – sperm quality and quantity, libido, and relief of menopausal symptoms.* 1-7
A recent clinical trial in which male cyclists supplemented with maca showed significant support for physical athletic performance and for healthy libido.1Another clinical study found that maca supported healthy sperm count and motility in adult men, while others, including a double-blind clinical trial have also shown that maca may support well-being and healthy libido in adult men.*2-4
Maca may provide benefits outside of its traditional uses, supporting prostate health, blood pressure and blood sugar levels already within normal limits, and weight management and bone health.*5-7 Maca appears to do this by supporting healthy levels of key hormones through the combined effect of different bioactive compounds. It showed no impact on testosterone, estradiol, LH, FSH, or prolactin levels.

Q: When is the best time to take Andes Organic Maca? Will it make me jittery?
A: While maca is not a stimulant, it can have energizing effects. For that reason, we recommend taking it in the morning or at lunchtime, to provide healthy energy and stamina throughout the day.*
Q: Does maca need to be pre-gelatinized and a certain color to be any good?
A: Lots of companies are making claims about “special” forms of maca. Some say it must be red, or brown, or yellow. Some say it has to be pre-gelatinized. The truth of the matter is that all colors are good – they all grow in the same field together, from the same seeds from the same source. The indigenous people of the Inca highlands have consumed maca for thousands of years and their method of choice is to eat all of it.
As for being pre-gelatinized, we feel that the best maca is in the form used in the ancient Andes cultures – nothing altered or manipulated. The big questions to ask when purchasing maca: Is it whole root? Organic? Clinically studied? A “yes” answer to all these questions indicates a high quality product.
Andes Organic Maca™
Maca (Lepidium meyenii) is a member of the mustard (brassica) family. It grows in a narrow band of elevation (about 13,500 to 14,500 feet) and it only does truly well in its native central Andean range; attempts to cultivate maca in other mountainous regions around the world haven’t been successful. Maca has traditionally been used for centuries to support healthy libido, energy, and stamina in men and women, often by mixing the cooked, dried root of the plant in a drink preparation or with other foods.
