Andean Maca – Nuggela & Sulé
Andean Maca or Lepidium Meyenii is an herbaceous plant that is grown in the inhospitable soil of the high Peruvian and Bolivian Andes. At that height, the soil is poor, rough and exposed to strong winds and sunlight with sub-zero temperatures. However, this plant has learned over time to survive and thrive in these extreme conditions. Furthermore, Maca is known to be the plant that grows at the highest altitudes in the world (between 3,800 and 4,800 meters).
TRADITIONAL USES
The Peruvian natives have used Maca since pre-Incan times, both for food and medicinal purposes. Inca warriors ate Maca before battles because they believed it gave them strength and power. It is an important staple in the diet of these people, since it has the highest nutritional value of the crops that are grown there. It is rich in sugars, proteins, starches and essential nutrients (especially iodine and iron). In addition, recent research has shown that maca contains more calcium than milk.
