Maca is a plant of the cress family (Peruvian cress). It stands out a little from the ranks of this genus because it has a tuber instead of a root. You would look for the origin of the maca in the Peruvian Andes of South America, where, according to certain archaeological findings, it was cultivated long before the Inca Empire. It has always had a reputation as a plant with almost mythical aphrodisiac powers.

It is clear that maca has a rich nutritional value comparable to rice, wheat or corn, for example - it can be considered a superfood. It contains important and beneficial substances for the body, such as carbohydrates, protein, fibre, fatty acids, vitamin B and C, trace elements - calcium, phosphorus, zinc, iodine, potassium, iron, or alkaloids, tannins and saponins.

Maca is synonymous with fertility, sexuality and is credited with beneficial effects on stamina, vitality and physical and mental health.
