Hippocrates
(c. 460 BC — c. 370 BC), was an
ancient Greek physician of the Age of Pericles,
considered one of the most outstanding figures
in the history of medicine. He is often referred
to as "The Father of Medicine" in
recognition of his lasting contributions to
the field as the founder of the Hippocratic
school of medicine. Hippocratic medicine was
humble and passive. The therapeutic approach
was based on "the healing power of nature".
According to this doctrine, the body contains
within itself the power to re-balance and heal
itself. |

Herbert Benson at Harvard Medical School has determined
that a part of the Hypothalamus, when stimulated,
can produce activation of the whole-body system. Another
part of that hypothalamus, however, when stimulated,
can produce a relaxation of the entire body."

From
the Peruvian Highlands
Maca is a hearty root vegetable plant which grows
in the high Andean plateaus of Peru at altitudes as
high as 14,500 feet above sea level. Little is known
about the origins of maca (Lepidium Peruvianum Chacon),
the plant is believed to have been cultivated in the
Junin Plateau region of the Central Highlands in an
area called Cerro de Pasco as far back as 2,000 years
ago. The Inca's of Peru were sophisticated builders
and cultivators of the land and may have been responsible
for the cultivation of maca which have been found
in archaeological sites. Many legends exist about
the nourishing powers of maca, such as it's ability
to promote sexual desire
and increased energy.

|
Legend
has it that Inca warriors would consume maca before
entering into battle. This would make them
extremely strong. But after conquering a city, the
Incan soldiers were forbidden from using maca to
protect the conquered women from the warrior's powerful
sexual impulses!
From as far back as 500 years ago, maca's reputation
for enhancing strength, libido and fertility was
already well established in Peru. |
|
Maca has a reputation
for being an aphrodisiac; it is clinically proven
in scientific trials (Lima, Peru) to spice up sex
lives. A natural alternative to chemically based
products.

Maca has been used traditionally to
increase energy and to promote improvement in both
stamina and endurance in athletes. Unlike caffeine,
Maca is a healthy choice for increasing energy because
it is not a stimulant.more
