NOW Raw Maca 750 mg is a dietary supplement featuring maca (Lepidium meyenii), a root vegetable native to the Andes region of Peru. This product utilizes a raw, gelatinized form of maca, which is a process that breaks down the starch content to enhance digestibility without compromising the nutritional integrity of the active compounds. Maca is traditionally revered for its adaptogenic properties and its potential to support reproductive health and vitality. This supplement is designed to support healthy sexual activity, fertility, and overall endocrine system balance. It is provided in vegetarian/vegan-friendly capsules.
Key Benefits:
ā¢ Ā Ā Reproductive Health: Maca is well-known for its traditional use in supporting reproductive health in both men and women.
ā¢ Ā Ā Hormonal Balance: As an adaptogen, maca is believed to help the body adapt to stress and can assist in balancing hormone levels, which may in turn support libido and sexual function.
ā¢ Ā Ā Energy and Stamina: Many users report an increase in energy levels and endurance without the jittery effects associated with stimulants like caffeine.
ā¢ Ā Ā Mood Support: Maca may contribute to a sense of well-being and improved mood.
