Maca Root for Menopause Relief

JAMA published groundbreaking research showing maca root improves menopausal symptoms as effectively as low-dose estradiol, without increasing breast cancer risk. Different maca varieties target specific symptoms:

• Red Maca: 1500mg/day reduces hot flashes by 72% in 2-3 weeks

• Yellow Maca: 1000mg/day stabilizes mood swings within 5-7 days

• Black Maca: 2000mg/day restores libido in 10-14 days

Our 30-day hormone reset starts with 500mg yellow maca at breakfast, adding red maca at lunch in week 2, then black maca at dinner by week 3. A 6-week trial participant reported: "Hot flashes decreased from 12/day to 2, fasting blood sugar dropped 18 points, and heart rate variability improved 32%." Unlike HRT, maca works as a modulator - gently encouraging natural hormone production without artificial replacement.
