Maca root is a turnip-like cruciferous vegetable which has been used in Peru for thousands of years as a food, as well as a natural remedy. Classified as a nutritive herbal tonic with possible adaptogenic qualities, it is a key ingredient in both David Winston's Energy Adapt™ and Men's Adapt™ formulas. The most sought-after Maca with highest levels of plant constituents is grown at high altitude in the Andes Mountains. A good maca liquid extract will have a caramel-like aroma similar to buttered popcorn.
