Peruvian Black Maca | Capturing the Magic of the Andes With Science

Maca has been used as a food source and supplement for thousands of years, but has been steadily gaining popularity amongst fitness enthusiasts and biohackers in recent years. Emiel and Erika take a dose of Nootropics Depot’s new Peruvian Black Maca powder and discuss the mechanisms of action responsible for its calming, mood-lifting, and libido-enhancing effects.

Because of Maca’s growing popularity, sourcing quality Maca is more important than ever! Nootropics Depot has combined high quality gelatinized Maca with our Maca extract (5% macamides) and horseradish root powder, which work synergistically to strengthen the calming benefits of Maca. Emiel discusses the neuroscience behind maca’s effects, including how it works on cannabinoid and TRPA receptors to produce subtle stimulation, as well as how the fibers and starches in maca aid in healthy digestion and satiation. Erika and Emiel mix the Peruvian Black Maca powder with Infinigreens into a daily drink taken after breakfast, which provides them with energy, focus, and genuine fullness for the first half of the day.
