Source Naturals Maca is a standardized extract of this hardy and highly valued
plant. Maca is grown at high elevations in the Andes region of central Peru,
using no fertilizers or pesticides. Maca extract has been used for centuries
by indigenous Peruvians as a food source and, based upon traditional Peruvian
folk belief, for increasing stamina and energy. Because of this traditional
use, maca has been called Peruvian ginseng. Maca is known to contain various

molecule, benzyl isothiocyanate, is also found in maca.
