The Maca plant is grown at the extreme altitude of 3500 4500 meters (12,000 15,000 ft) in the Andes Mountains of Peru, where only alpine grasses and bitter potatoes can survive. Rich in vitamins and nutrients, the Maca root has been used for at least 2000 years by the indigenous peoples of the region for energy, stamina, and fertility. Inca warriors ate Maca before battles for energy. When Peru was established as a Spanish colony, the colonists noticed their livestock were not reproducing in the high altitudes. After the indigenous peoples showed them that feeding Maca to their animals boosted fertility, Maca was accepted as a currency to pay taxes. Research shows that Maca affects the endocrine system via the pituitary gland in both men and women. Maca aids the pituitary gland to regulate hormones to an optimal balance. The endocrine systems improved function results in a higher quality of sperm and sperm count in males and general fertility in females. This results in an increased desire for sex in both genders. Maca is an adaptogen, a natural product that adapts to the age and gender of the user and affects them accordingly. Although Maca is widely perceived as a libido supplement, the #1 consumer purchasing pure Maca (concentrated or powder) is menopausal women. Several articles testify that Maca is effective in eliminating hot flashes and moderating mood swings, which makes sense given its function in regulating hormone levels. Because Maca has only recently been brought to the attention of the industrialized world, there is still much to learn through clinical research about why this product has been used for thousands of years.

Milk thistle nutritionally supports the livers ability to maintain normal liver function. It has shown positive effects in treating nearly every known form of liver disease, including cirrhosis, hepatitis, necroses, and liver damage due to drug and alcohol abuse. Milk thistle works due to its ability to inhibit the factors responsible for liver damage, coupled with the fact it stimulates production of new liver cells to replace old damaged ones. Milk thistle has been proven to protect the liver from damage. The detrimental effects of environmental toxins, alcohol, drugs and chemotherapy may be countered with this valuable herb. The active chemical component in the herb is silybin, which functions as an antioxidant and is one of the most potent liver protective agents known. Clinical trials have proven silybin to be effective in treating chronic liver diseases and in protecting the liver from toxic chemicals. An injection of silybin is a proven antidote for poisoning with the Deathcap mushroom (Amanita phalloides).
