Maca "Peruvian Ginseng"

Lepidium Meyenii

Lepidium meyenii (known also as High Andean Ginseng, Maka) is an herbaceous biennial or annual plant, native to the high Andes of Peru (S.America). It has been shown that until the late 1980s, maca has only been cultivated in a limited area around Lake Junin, in Central Peru. Nowadays, most botanists consider the widely cultivated maca "of today" to be a newer domesticated species, and call it Lepidium peruvianum.

Description Maca is very frost hardy and can be easily grown in USDA zone 8. The green, fragrant tops are short and lie along the ground. The thin frilly leaves are born in a rosette at the soil surface, and are continuously renewed from the center as the outer leaves die. The off-white flowers are self-fertile. Maca does vary greatly in the size and shape of the root, which can be triangular, flattened circular, spherical or rectangular. Maca hypocotyls can be gold or cream, red, purple, blue, black or green.

• Cream colored roots are the most widely grown and are favored in Peru for their enhanced sweetness and size.

• Blue and black maca are considered the strongest in energy-promoting properties, being both sweet and slightly bitter in taste.

• Red maca is also becoming popular with many people, and has been clinically shown to reduce prostate size in rats.

Cultivation Maca is a very hardy , native to lands which may experience freezing weather. Maca grows well in relatively poor agricultural soils and doesn't like over watering. It would grow well on some rocky place. The plant itself naturally repels most root crop pests. It needs 8 to 10 months elapse between sowing and maturity for harvest. The seeds, germinate within five days given good conditions. The seeds have no dormancy, as maca's native habitat remains harsh year-round. For approximately 2000 years, maca has been an important traditional food and medicinal herb in its native growing region, where it is well-known and celebrated. Maca has been harvested and used by humans in the Andean Mountains for centuries. Traditonal Medicine Maca is considered as a medicine that:

• enhances strength, endurance and metal concentration

• acts as an aphrodisiac It is also used for:

• fertility enhancement

• female menopause & men impotence

• sexual dysfunction, loss of libido and an overall lack of energy

• hormone related problems (men's and women's hormonal imbalances) - it acts on the hypothalamus-pituitary gland

       Traditional uses Maca is regarded as a highly nutritious, energy-imbuing food. It is rich in:

• essential minerals (especially calcium, selenium, magnesium, iron, phosphorus, potassium, zinc)

• and vitamins (A, B1, B2, B3, B12, C, D and E)

• and includes fatty acids including (linolenic acid, palmitic acid, and oleic acids, and 19 amino acids)

• as well as polysaccharides.        The nutritional value of dried maca root is high, similar to cereal grains such as rice and wheat.The average composition is 60% carbohydrates, 10% protein, 8.5% dietary fiber, and 2.2% fats. In Peru, maca is prepared and consumed in several ways, although traditionally it is always cooked. If fermented, a weak beer called chicha de maca can be produced. The leaves can also be prepared raw in salads. In Peru, maca flour is used in baking as a base and a flavouring. Interesting fact… Historically, maca was often traded for lowland tropical food staples, such as corn, rice, manioc (tapioca roots), quinoa and papaya. During Spanish colonization maca was also used as a form of payment of Spanish imperial taxes. It is often cited that maca was eaten by Inca imperial warriors before battles.
