Regulate Endocrine, Relieve Menopausal Syndrome

Various alkaloidal active molecules rich in maca extract can effectively act on the lower part of the optic chiasm and pituitary gland to achieve the effect of regulating endocrine glands in the human body. The menopausal syndrome is mainly caused by aging and unbalanced secretion of endocrine glands, so the endocrine regulation of maca can also delay aging and relieve menopause.

Antioxidant

The active polysaccharides in the roots and leaves of Maca have a scavenging capacity for hydroxyl radicals, DPPH radicals, and superoxide anion radicals. Gan Jin studied the correlation between the antioxidant activity and secondary metabolites of Maca and found that the polyphenol content and alkaloid content of Maca had a highly significant linear correlation with the total antioxidant capacity, hydroxyl radical scavenging capacity, and lipid oxidation inhibition and that the H2O2-induced cell damage of SH-SY5Y in Maca had a protective effect, which increased the cell survival rate by 17.18%.

Fertility Enhancement

Fertility enhancement is one of the traditional effects of maca. The aqueous extract of maca can counteract organophosphate insecticide-induced sperm damage in mice and increase the number of sperm produced. Zhou Yi et al. showed that active polysaccharides in Maca can increase the mating rate of Drosophila by about 38% within 60 min. Maca alkaloids can increase the number of mature follicular vesicles, the number of spermatozoa and their mobility in animals, thus significantly improving the fertility of mammals and fish. The ability of maca to improve fertility is closely related to its active polysaccharides, alkaloids, and rich arginine and fructose.
