Libido, the root of the word "desire" in Latin, is the most common word to summarize sexual desire. Who has never really needed a natural boost? Because it's not just about the others! Indeed, because it happens that our internal energy is not at its maximum and that we stagnate at a rather low energy level, we will quickly notice the impact on our different functions but also, and especially, the impact on our sexuality.
Our vital energy level should be a priority in maintaining our health because it affects many vital functions and when our energy is at a low level, our libido often goes down and unfortunately, faster than we think.
Fortunately, alternatives exist to support our body and maintain or enhance our energy level, natural alternatives and not to chemically provide what we need. Let's not forget that nature is there to support us when we need it and some plants are very well adapted to this drop in vitality that impacts our sex life.
What is Lepidium Meyenii?
From its Latin name Lepidium Meyenii, Maca is a taproot plant of the Brassicaceae family. Coming from the high plateaus of the central part of the Peruvian Andes, this root of the shape of a turnip was already cultivated by our ancestors for its benefits and its nutritional properties. In ancient times, during the Inca era, the Incas used it to boost fertility and increase sexual energy. It is also interesting to know that Maca were formerly called "Peruvian Ginseng" and currently some nickname it the "Peruvian Viagra" as this plant would stimulate the production of male and female hormones.
For the record, Maca was a source of reward that was given to warriors to give them even more energy, not for sexual purposes but for vital purposes - this energy that impacts on our entire body and that we should take care of. This offering was made so that these warriors could maintain their stamina and strength in battle. For the anecdote, in those times, women were forbidden from the places of fights to avoid the men that their sexual appetites do not devour them following the catch of this super-food. We might as well tell you that to boost libido, maca works wonderfully.
The many benefits of this Peruvian ginseng are very interesting, namely: it acts at the level of fertility, hormonal balance, libido and as we have already mentioned, vital energy. Therefore, it turns out that the benefits of Maca are very real and especially very useful for people with concerns about their libido, for those who suffer from erectile dysfunction and for all those whose aphrodisiac or fertile needs are felt.
Its composition, rich in proteins, carbohydrates, fibers, minerals, vitamins B and C, amino acids (arginine, glycine, ornithine) and essential fatty acids, makes it an essential ally to bring us the energy we lack or the sexual stimulation we need. Very useful in many health concerns, it is around the sexual sphere that we draw your attention today. Nevertheless, you should know that it is a complex superfood that will meet many expectations.
Since you will not find Maca in its natural raw form, it is possible to find it in organic shops in the form of powder to sprinkle on your smoothies, juices, milks, or salads or to create a chocolate dessert with which it will marry perfectly given its light nutty taste. For those who do not wish to integrate it into the diet, maca is also available in capsule form to be taken daily, this food supplement will therefore meet all your expectations.
