Maca is a root vegetable or tuber related to the potato family. It grows in the mountains at altitudes of 9 to 11 thousand feet, making it the highest cultivated plant in the world. Native Peruvians have used Maca as a food since before the times of the Incas for both it’s nutritional and medicinal properties. Maca has been used medicinally for centuries to enhance fertility in humans and animals. Soon after the Spanish Conquest in the South America, the Spanish found that their livestock were reproducing poorly in the highlands. The local Indians recommended feeding the animals Maca and so remarkable were the results that Spanish chroniclers gave in-depth reports. Its fertility enhancing properties were supported clinically as early as 1961, when researcher discovered it increases the fertility of rats. This energizing plant is also referred to as Peruvian ginseng, although Maca is not in the same family as ginseng.
