Benefits

Traditional uses now supported by scientific research:

  • Promotes energy, stamina, and healthy sex drive in men and women*
  • Promotes healthy hormone balance in men and women*
  • Relieves perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms for women*
  • Supports healthy adrenal function*

Maca Increases Tissue Levels of IGF-1

Maca root was shown in a 2004 study at Albany Medical College to increase tissue levels of Insulin Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1), a naturally occurring precursor hormone made by the liver. IGF-1 decreases as we age. IGF-1 impacts many parts of the body:

  • Hormone balancing for women with a menstrual cycle, in perimenopause, menopause, post-menopause, and into old age
    • Including sexual function, libido, reproductive health, relief from PMS and painful periods, and bone density support
  • Promotes libido, erectile function, and healthy reproductive function in men
  • Supports collagen-based structures, which include bone, muscles, hair, nails, skin
  • Supports neurotransmitter hormones including those required for optimum mood, sleep, and cognitive function
  • Promotes healthy endocrine gland function (thyroid, pancreas, adrenal glands, testes, and ovaries)

Therapeutic Grade of Maca

  • Royal Maca® is organically grown and processed in Peru. Of all Maca sold in the U.S., 70 – 80% is grown in China and is of inferior quality.
  • Royal Maca® is a therapeutic-grade Maca product, not a recreational food product.
  • Royal Maca® is a life-changing alternative to testosterone therapy for men and hormone replacement therapy for women. It supports hormonal health in young women including reproductive health and beautiful skin.
  • Because of the high potency of Royal Maca®, correct dosage must be determined with Whole World Botanicals’ guidelines (see below). Free individual consultations are available for customers. Contact us.
  • Royal Maca® is the most potent and economical Maca product on the market.

Dosing Considerations

Click on the Situation that Best Represents You

As soon as a female begins to menstruate, she can benefit from taking Royal Maca® for relief from heavy/painful periods, supporting a regular menstrual cycle, supporting mood balance, relieving PMS symptoms, supporting fertility and healthy reproductive function, promoting post-partum mood balance, promoting healthy skin (reducing acne), boosting energy, and helping to dissolve ovarian cysts.*

Follow the directions on the bottle for petite/sensitive(see Product Label tab). Consider starting with 1/4 or 1/2 of a capsule. After one full menstrual cycle, you may increase your amount if you want greater symptom relief, or decrease the amount if you feel overstimulated. Stay on your adjusted dose for another full menstrual cycle, then adjust again as needed. Most women find their best dose in a few cycles and stay on that until they enter the perimenopause phase of life.

Most teenagers fall into the petite/sensitive category where they are shorter than 5’3″ (regardless of weight) or weigh less than 115 pounds (regardless of height). In that case, consider SHE™. our Royal Maca®/Royal Camu® combination product. SHE™ contains a small amount of Royal Maca® to avoid over-stimulating the body and adds a generous amount of Royal Camu® to support mood, immunity, and energy.

If you have questions about dosing, you may email the Product Educator for fastest response, or call our Product Educator voicemail line (646-290-8651) for an answer within one to seven days.

If your height is less than 5’3” (regardless of weight) or you weigh less than 115 pounds (regardless of height), you fit into the “petite” category. This is true even if you are 5’2” and weight 200 pounds.

Menstruating: Follow the directions on the bottle for petite/sensitive (see Product Label tab). Consider starting with 1/2 or 1 capsule daily. After one full menstrual cycle, you may increase your amount if you want greater symptom relief, or decrease the amount if you feel overstimulated. Stay on your adjusted dose for another full menstrual cycle, and then adjust again as needed. Most women find their best dose in a few cycles, and stay on that until they enter the perimenopause phase of life.

Not Menstruating: Follow the directions on the bottle for petite/sensitive (see Product Label tab). Consider starting with 1/2 or 1 capsule daily. Evaluate symptoms after 5 days. If symptoms are 80% better, the dosage is right. If symptoms are 50% better or less, increase daily dosage by one more capsule and stay at that dose for 5 days. Evaluate symptoms again. If symptoms are now 80% better, the dosage is right. If not, keep increasing daily dosage by one capsule every 5 days until symptoms are 80% better. If symptoms worsen, you may need to reduce the dosage according to the 5-day evaluation process.

If you find that you are still overstimulated, consider SHE™, our Royal Maca®/Royal Camu® combination product. SHE™ contains a small amount of Royal Maca® to avoid over-stimulating the body and adds a generous amount of Royal Camu® to support mood, immunity, and energy.

If you have questions about dosing, you may email the Product Educator for fastest response, or call our Product Educator voicemail line (646-290-8651) for an answer within one to seven days.

If you know that you usually take less than the normal dosage of other supplements or are just sensitive in general, finding the right dose for you may be challenging because the high potency of Royal Maca® may overstimulate your system. Also, if you have a hard time taking prescription drugs or even herbal supplements at the “normal” dosage, you fit the “sensitive” category.

Menstruating: Follow the directions on the bottle for petite/sensitive (see Produc Label tab). Consider starting with 1/2 or 1 capsule daily. After one full menstrual cycle, you may increase your amount if you want greater symptom relief, or decrease the amount if you feel overstimulated. Stay on your adjusted dose for another full menstrual cycle, and then adjust again as needed. Most women find their best dose in a few cycles, and stay on that until they enter the perimenopause phase of life.

Not Menstruating: Follow the directions on the bottle for petite/sensitive (see Produc Label tab). Consider starting with 1/2 or 1 capsule  daily. Evaluate symptoms after 5 days. If symptoms are 80% better, the dosage is right. If symptoms are 50% better or less, increase daily dosage by one more capsule and stay at that dose for 5 days. Evaluate symptoms again. If symptoms are now 80% better, the dosage is right. If not, keep increasing daily dosage by one capsule every 5 days until symptoms are 80% better. If symptoms worsen, you may need to reduce the dosage according to the 5-day evaluation process.

Follow the directions on the bottle. If you are not petite or sensitive, consider starting with 2 capsules. After one full menstrual cycle, you may increase your amount if you want greater symptom relief, or decrease the amount if you feel overstimulated. Stay on your adjusted dose for another full menstrual cycle, and then adjust again as needed. Most women find their best dose in a few cycles. You will stay on that amount until you enter the perimenopause phase of life.

If you are at risk for breast cancer or are extremely estrogen-dominant, consider Royal Maca® Plus for Women with DIM. This product has been beneficial for many who struggle to get their dosing correct with Royal Maca® powder or capsules.

If you have questions about dosing, you may email the Product Educator for fastest response, or call our Product Educator voicemail line (646-290-8651) for an answer within one to seven days.

Perimenopause is a period of several to many years when estrogen and progesterone levels are dropping in a woman’s body creating symptoms of estrogen dominance first and then of estrogen depletion. Royal Maca® offers excellent symptom relief for both Phase 1 and Phase 2 of perimenopause. In Phase 1, symptoms of estrogen-dominance may include very painful periods, flooding periods, endometriosis, breast cysts, fibroid tumors, and painful breasts. In Phase 2, symptoms of estrogen depletion may include migraines, vaginal dryness, hot flashes, brain fog, depression, urinary urgency/frequency, and heart palpitations.

Consider taking 2 capsules of Royal Maca® Vitality Libido Balance each morning if you are still menstruating and having hot flashes. If you have no period, you can increase that amount incrementally in small amounts, if necessary, every 5 days until symptoms are 80% better. As you transition from Phase 1 to Phase 2 of perimenopause, and develop hot flashes or other symptoms, you may need to increase your dosage. After a year of no periods, you may find that you need to increase your dosage again. The way your body feels should always be your guide.

You may also consider our Royal Maca® for Perimenopause, which is specifically designed for perimenopausal women and contains magnesium and zinc, providing additional support for this phase of life.

If you have questions about dosing, you may email the Product Educator for fastest response, or call our Product Educator voicemail line (646-290-8651) for an answer within one to seven days.

Women who have had no period for 12 months (or longer) are considered “menopausal” (often called post menopausal).

If you are in that category and are having symptoms (hot flashes, night sweats, etc.), consider starting with 3-4 capsules of Royal Maca® Vitality Libido Balance. You can increase that amount incrementally in small amounts, if necessary, every 5 days until symptoms are 80% better. The way your body feels should always be your guide.

Our product called Royal Maca® for Menopause contains Royal Maca® powder in capsules. The label also gives detailed dosing instructions that you can follow.

Typically, after 3 months, 6 months or even a year or longer, you may notice previous symptoms (like hot flashes) beginning to return or you may develop a side-effect like irritability or insomnia. When this happens, you need to first STOP taking Royal Maca® for 2 days, and then REDUCE your daily dosage. This will avert being overstimulated by the potency of Royal Maca® after your body has achieved a better hormone balance of its own.

If you have questions about dosing, you may email the Product Educator for fastest response, or call our Product Educator voicemail line (646-290-8651) for an answer within one to seven days.

To begin the transition to Royal Maca®, you must first stop taking the HRT, bio-identical hormones or other estrogenic elements cold turkey. To decrease the number and severity of hot flashes that may return and to prevent menopausal depression and assist sleep, start taking Royal Camu® – one teaspoon (5 capsules), 3 times per day between meals for 4 weeks. Royal Camu® at this dosage will usually reduce hot flashes by 60-70%. After 4 weeks, start taking Royal Maca® according to the directions on the bottle and reduce Royal Camu® to 1/2 to 1 teaspoon daily.

If you have questions about dosing, you may email the Product Educator for fastest response, or call our Product Educator voicemail line (646-290-8651) for an answer within one to seven days.

If acne in the teenage and young adult years is occurring, it is probably due to a hormone imbalance. Teenagers can start with 1 capsule of Royal Maca® Vitality daily at breakfast. If they don’t see results in about 10 days, they can start taking 2 capsules a day. Royal Camu® (very high in natural Vitamin C) can also be taken to support clear skin – 2 capsules (or 1/2 teaspoon) twice daily. Avoid excessive sweets and fried foods and add more vegetables to your diet.

You will probably start feeling so good you might be tempted to raise your dosage to feel even better. However, if you take too much, you may get a headache or feel agitated and have trouble sleeping. Be careful not to over-do the amount that you take.

Taking Royal Maca® before a sporting event yields more stamina. It may also yield better mental focus and energy.

Men are not as sensitive as women to dosages and have more leeway in how they dose their Royal Maca®. However Royal Maca® is very potent and needs to be taken in much smaller amounts than the weak Chinese Maca (that may be advertised as Peruvian Maca), which is the most common type of Maca available in the U.S.

Note: If you begin to experience less energy, lower libido or mood, or if you start feeling agitation or have trouble sleeping, that means you need to reduce your intake.

Men in the prime of life might take Royal Maca® to enhance their sexual and reproductive functions. Taking Royal Maca® before a sporting event yields more stamina. Body builders love Royal Maca® for its ability to repair/build muscle quickly. Start with 2 capsules of Royal Maca® Vitality Libido Balance each morning for a week or two. If there is no noticeable effect, increase to 3 capsules of Royal Maca® daily and try that out for a week or two. Further adjustments can be made. The goal is to determine the minimum effective dosage.

Taking Too Much Royal Maca® for Your Body can be Unbalancing

Your goal with Royal Maca® is to find your MED – minimum effective dosage. Maca root has adaptogenic-like effects appropriate for both gender and age. As each person is physiologically different, you may need to experiment a little, taking the same dosage for 5 to 7 days before changing the amount.

Because of the therapeutic potency of Royal Maca®, it can be unbalancing if you take too much for your body. Over-stimulation is hormone-unbalancing. If you develop any side effects after taking Royal Maca® for a few days or longer, stop taking the product for two days, and then resume at a lower dosage (see below for possible side effects). These symptoms go away quickly when you stop the product briefly and resume taking it at a lower dosage.

Possible side effects of taking too much Royal Maca®:

  • Women may experience an increase in hot flashes or night sweats, or breast tenderness. Their menstrual period may have too much bleeding, too long a period or the cycle may shorten.
  • Men may experience a decrease in libido and sexual function or desire.
  • Men and women may experience fatigue, headaches, feeling jittery, anxious or not sleeping well.
  • If you experience any allergic-type reaction, such as itching, swelling, redness, rash, nausea, or vomiting, stop taking Royal Maca® and consider taking adequate amounts of Royal Camu® for partial relief of hormone issues.

For any of the above symptoms, except for allergic-type reactions, simply stop taking Royal Maca® for two days and then start again at a reduced amount.

Directions

Royal Maca® is best taken in the morning with a meal, to give you an energy lift throughout the day. It can also be taken away from a meal. Follow the directions on the label (see Product Label tab).

Regularity is important when taking Royal Maca® Please see the Dosing Consideration above to find the right amount for your situation.

Contraindications

  • Do not combine Royal Maca® with any form of testosterone or estrogen, including HRT, phytoestrogenic herbs such as black cohosh, motherwort, red clover, etc., or with estrogen precursors such as pregnenolone or DHEA.
  • Women should stop using estrogenic supplements for 4 weeks before starting use of Royal Maca®.
  • Usually does not combine well with ginseng and other adaptogenic botanicals.
  • Do not use Maca if you are taking Tamoxifen® for breast cancer or Lupron® for prostate cancer.
  • Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or nursing.
maca maca maca

Up to 80% of Maca available in the United States is now sourced in China because of the illegal export of Maca root seeds from Peru. Maca roots in China are often grown at lower elevations in unknown soil and air conditions. The only way to know the difference is to know the procurement processes of the company from which you purchase your Maca. Be assured, Royal Maca® will always come from Peru.

One company continues to insist, with no independent research to back it up, that the color of Maca root matters as to how Maca root affects the hormones of men and women. Growers planted entire fields with seed from black Maca and red Maca that, when harvested, produced Maca roots of different colors. This means the colors of the skins do not reflect a genetic difference. Skin color is apparently dependent on variations in chemical composition of the soil in a particular field. No unsponsored research has ever shown that pigments have hormonal effects. Peruvians traditionally do not separate the roots by color either.

Sun-drying is the traditional way to process Maca root in Peru. Phytochemicals essential for Maca’s hormone balancing power and anti-cancer properties, isothiocyanates, can only develop with sun-drying. Maca roots are left to dry in the sun for 6-8 weeks after harvest. Machine drying in a few hours has become the norm with almost all companies, resulting in a weaker Maca. Royal Maca® is sun-dried.

Gelatinization is a form of heating at high temperature under pressure for a few seconds. This process involves soaking the roots in hot water until softened and then extruding the roots under pressure at a high heat for a few seconds. Gelatinization is unfortunate name for the process because it makes people think that the Maca powder contains gelatin. There are no animal products in Royal Maca®; it is a vegan product.

Gelatinization does several things to dried Maca roots:

  • Eliminates toxic enzymes that inhibit digestion and assimilation
  • Reduces carbohydrate content by 50% producing a potent powder concentrate
  • Reduces moisture content by 20%
  • Preserves all of the secondary metabolites created during sun-drying that are responsible for the hormone-balancing effects of Maca root

Royal Maca® is gelatinized.

Maca in its raw form contains a digestion-inhibiting enzyme that is toxic and can cause serious stomach and intestinal distress. Some companies that sell raw Maca are adding digestive enzymes to help customers digest the toxin. Raw Maca has been shown to be ineffective for hormone balancing. In fact, it is so weak that it is not commonly used in scientific studies. One animal study shows it causes low birth rate and growth rate in mice. Raw Maca requires large doses (1 teaspoon or more) to have any effect at all. It also is more expensive per serving for the consumer. Peruvians never eat raw Maca.

  • Do not combine Royal Maca® with any form of testosterone or estrogen, including HRT, phytoestrogenic herbs such as black cohosh, motherwort, red clover, etc., or with estrogen precursors such as pregnenolone, DHEA, or Vitex.
  • Women should stop using estrogenic supplements for 4 weeks before starting use of Royal Maca® and may use generous amounts of Royal Camu® to alleviate symptoms during the 4-week transition period.
  • Usually does not combine well with ginseng and other adaptogenic botanicals
  • Do not use Maca if you are taking Tamoxifen® for breast cancer or Lupron® for prostate cancer
  • Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or nursing

Misinformation exists on the Internet about the need to take periodic, long breaks from taking therapeutic Maca root. However, for women who need a consistent daily dose, taking a break may be beneficial if the product becomes less effective over time or side-effects develop (such as hot flashes), take a two-day break and then reduce your daily dosage.

Men can take Royal Maca® to promote healthy sexual function on an “as needed” basis. If desired, a man may take Royal Maca® every other day, twice weekly, once a week, etc. If a man likes, the dose may be based on amount needed to produce same-day effect. Other men will prefer consistent effects of a smaller dose with every day usage to support energy, mood, sleep, etc., in addition to sexual energy and function. If a man sees a decrease in the desired effects, he is likely taking too much Royal Maca®. He could take a break for a couple of days and then take the product again at a lower dosage.

The best time to start is right after her period begins or within the first week of the period. However, if she starts mid-cycle, the other benefits of taking Royal Maca® such as a boost to energy, collagen structure support (hair, skin, nails), will begin to take effect as she begins taking the best dose for her. It is after taking Royal Maca® for a full cycle that a woman can best determine how it is affecting her hormone balance.

Yes, Royal Maca® can be very beneficial in that situation. The adrenal glands are a back-up system for the ovaries and produce small amounts of estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone throughout a woman’s lifetime. Royal Maca® supports adrenal glands to make more sex hormones. It helps the body make more estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone, and their receptors.

To begin the transition to Royal Maca®, you must first stop taking the HRT, bio-identical hormones or other estrogenic elements cold turkey. Start taking Royal Camu® – one teaspoon (5 capsules), 3 times per day between meals for 4 weeks. Royal Camu® at this dosage will usually reduce hot flashes by 60-70%. After 4 weeks, start taking Royal Maca® according to the directions on the bottle and reduce Royal Camu® to 1/2-1 teaspoon daily.

If you have questions or concerns about this, you may email the Product Educator for fastest response, or call our Product Educator voicemail line (646-290-8651) for an answer within one to seven days.

Because of the therapeutic potency of Royal Maca®, it can be unbalancing if you take too much for your body. Over-stimulation is hormone-unbalancing. Reducing the amount of Royal Maca® to the dose needed by your unique body is the solution if you are taking too much.
Possible symptoms of taking too much Royal Maca®

    • Men may experience a decrease in libido and sexual function or desire.
    • Men and women may experience fatigue, headaches, feeling jittery, anxious or not sleeping well.
    • If you experience any allergic-type reaction, such as itching, swelling, redness, rash, nausea, or vomiting, stop taking Royal Maca® and consider taking adequate amounts of Royal Camu® for partial relief of hormone issues

.

For any of the above symptoms, except for allergic-type reactions, simply stop taking Royal Maca® for two days and then start again at a reduced amount.

No. The selenium listed on the label is naturally occurring in Maca root. For both men and women, selenium is an antioxidant, helps boost immunity, improves blood flow and regulates thyroid function.

“Effects of Maca on the Level of Estrogen & FSH in Peri-Menopausal Women” by L. Aragon, T. Ramirez, A. Pino
Results: Organic Pre-Cooked Maca Root Supplement Raises Estradiol Levels in Peri-menopausal Women

In 1960, Gloria Chacon did her Master’s thesis on the effects of Maca Root on the reproductive system of rats. She studied Biological Sciences in the Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, receiving her degree in 1962, with the theme: photochemical study of Maca. Rats were fed large quantity of cooked Maca root powder for 72 hours and then sacrificed for study. Female rats showed multiple mature egg follicles. Male rats showed a significant increase in sperm count and sperm motility.
Conclusion #1: Chemical actives in Maca root were working on the reproductive systems of both male and female rats through the hypothalamus and pituitary glands (precursor hormones)
Conclusion #2: Maca root had therapeutic effects appropriate to the sex of the animal

Results of the study: Maca root improved sexual desire within 8 weeks of treatment. Serum testosterone levels were not different in men treated with Maca root and in those treated with placebo, which is good news for men who have had prostate cancer. Their doctors might be more inclined to give their patients permission to use Royal Maca, knowing the results of this study.

Results: Mice fed raw maca had the lowest average birth weight and the slowest average growth rate in their offspring. Mice fed cooked maca had a higher average birth weight and a faster average growth rate in their offspring than both the placebo group and the raw maca mice group. In the second generation of mice, these differences in birth rates and growth rates between the groups were even greater.
