Maca Extract 10:1

What is Maca Extract?

Maca Extract is the active ingredient extracted from the root of the plant Maca, family Cruciferae, genus Solanum. The active ingredients of maca extract are alkaloids, mustard oil glycosides, vitamins, proteins, amino acids, polysaccharides, minerals, and a variety of natural plant active ingredients.

The alkaloids in maca extract can regulate the functions of adrenal glands, pancreas, and ovaries, and balance the hormone level in the body. The rich taurine and protein can regulate and repair physiological functions, improve qi and blood, and relieve menopausal symptoms. Iron, protein, amino acids, zinc, and other minerals can help strengthen the immune system, enhance the body's resistance to disease, anti-fatigue, and improve the symptoms of anaemia.

The maca extract supplied by Green Spring Technology is made from the finest raw materials, which is prepared by the advanced composite green aroma extraction process, combined with biological aroma technology. It not only nearly completes the retention of the rich nutrients contained in maca, but also covers the unique flavor of Maca, a complete embodiment of the product characteristics.

Benefits:

Anti-Fatigue

Choi et al. found that the fat-soluble extract of maca powder improved swimming endurance in rats, and further identification showed that the main components of the fat-soluble extract of maca were maca amide, fatty acids, sterols, and phenols. Yang Qin et al. found that supplementation with N-benzylamine (40 mg/kg) prolonged the time of weight-bearing swimming and improved swimming endurance, which proved that benzylenamide had anti-sporting fatigue It proves that benzylenamide has an anti-exercise fatigue effect. Yu Longjiang et al. proved that the swimming time of mice could be prolonged by 56.88% and the level of serum urea nitrogen could be reduced by 15.35% after taking the dried maca powder.

Tang Weimin et al. found that the active polysaccharide of maca could prolong the time of swimming exhaustion of mice effectively. Cha Shenghua gave different doses of maca alkaloids (0.13, 0.27, 0.8 g/kg) to three groups of mice by gavage for 30 days, and the exhaustion time of the mice was prolonged by 39.46%, 66.67%, and 123.44% respectively. The active polysaccharides, erucicosides, maca-amides and other active ingredients in maca play an important role in the anti-fatigue efficacy of maca.

Immunomodulation

Maca has synergistic effects on humoral immunity, phagocytosis of macrophages, and natural killer cell activity in mice. Zhang Yongzhong et al. found through mouse experiments that the alcoholic extract of maca has a certain enhancement effect on specific humoral and cellular immunity, prompting an increase in serum haemolysin content by 186.27% and an increase in the level of antibody-producing cells by 23.58%. The active polysaccharide of maca has in vitro immunomodulatory activity, and it can improve the phagocytosis ability of macrophage RAW 264.7 and NO secretion ability.

Regulation of Endocrine

Alcoholic extract of maca can improve blood lipid and bone metabolism after ovariectomy in rats and has a certain regulating effect on endocrine disorders. The alkaloids in maca can act on the lower part of the optic chiasm and the pituitary gland, and have the ability to regulate the functions of endocrine glands, such as adrenal glands, thyroid gland, pancreas, ovaries, etc., to balance the hormones. Various active ingredients such as alkaloids of maca, mustard oil glycosides, benzyl isothiocyanate, and sterols can regulate the endocrine system of organisms.

Improvement of Sexual Function

Maca extract contains two phytoactive substances, macaene and maca amide, which play a key role in improving sexual function. Substances such as mesquite oleoresin and benzyl isothiocyanate and sterols also play a good role in sexual function. Maca extract can exponentially increase the number and activity of mature follicular vesicles in women, which improves fertility and increases the chances of conception. It can also exponentially increase the number of spermatozoa and enhance sperm mobility.

Applications:

For Health Products:

The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) has given maca a high rating. Maca root has been developed into a variety of health food and nutritional supplements. Extracts of maca have become the raw material of health care products with international attention, which can improve sexual function and treat women's menopausal syndromes.
