It’s a fact of life that women suffer with the menopause at that certain time of life. Some are as young as 30 years old, while others are considerably older. The hot flashes, the mood swings, the depression are just a few of the side affects. Until the last few decades the only alternative medication would be HRT. I’m sure you know that this is a synthetic drug, which does have many side affects. nnThat was until a Doctor who was A Medical Scientist discovered Lepidium Meyenii, which was used by the local Peruvians in the Junin department of the Andes at the unbelievable height of 11,000 – 14,000 ft above sea level.nnThe plant comes from the same family as the turnip, or the radish, and has been used as a multi treating medicine for all manner of illnesses by Peruvian families for years. They treated menopausal women, and also used it for fertility in both men and women.nnAfter medical tests it found to be completely safe to take and use, and compared with other remedies on the market for the menopause it way far ahead of them in results.nnDoctors have been quoted to say that it deals with every symptom that a woman gets with the menopause, and how that it normalises the estrogen, testosterone, and progesterone levels of the body. Along with that it contains amino acid, carbohydrates, vitamin B1, B2, B12, C, and E.nnYou could almost say that is almost a complete food supplement, because it strengthens, and balances the whole body. Even athletes are using it because of those features, and especially as it is not a drug. (Some women have even been known to call it the eighth wonder of the world)nnPlease note that Macca is the shortened common name which was given to this supplement by the Spanish.nnAnother thing I should point out to those who don’t know about its capabilities is that Macca can be taken by Men as well as Women. In Men it believed to a great sexual enhancer especially if they have suffered with prostrate problems. Some even call it a vegetarian Viagra.nnAfter doing quite a lot research on the Internet I found that most comments and most articles had positive reviews.nnMacca can be bought from most Health food shops either in powder form or in tablet form. There are quite a few different opinions which the best way to take Macca, but everyone agreed that you must make sure that you buy the genuine article from High in the Andes as the soil in which it grows has the right properties for its ingredients.
