By this time, many of us will be well-versed in the benefits of botanical supplements as health remedies and therapeutic medicine. Many of these remedies have been utilized since ancient times for their benefits to wellness as well as their almost magical powers of healing the body, mind, and spirit. 

 

 

Botanicals can restore balance within the body and this is vital for improved overall health, far too often, it is imbalances within the body that create chronic conditions, health disorders, and disease. 

Of course, there are numerous botanicals that the human body can benefit from, and providing your body with a range of plant medicines can help to positively move your health forward. So, if you are feeling a little stuck, or sense that your progress is slow or has reached a plateau, botanicals are well-worth investigating further! 

 

Maca Root

Maca Root is a natural and therapeutic remedy that originates in South America. It has many benefits for both men and women and many herbalists and botanical suppliers provide it for their customers as it is so potent! 

Maca Root is also known as “Peruvian Ginseng” and has been receiving the attention it deserves for health, balance, and hormonal healing since the 1980s. It is commonly used in Peruvian cooking, in powder form it can be added or blended into smoothies, shakes, and meals and so it is a highly versatile supplement and dietary aid. 

 

 

 

There are different colors of Maca, some companies may suggest that certain colors or more advantageous, however, Maca root is the same on the inside even though it may appear different externally. The benefits of Maca root remain, largely regardless of its color! A lot of Maca Roots' power on hormonal function stems from its effects on the liver. 

Maca Root helps the liver function better and makes more of the precursor hormone Insulin growth factor-1 (IGF-1) which supports all of the endocrine glands. Whole World Botanicals specializes in Maca Root and fully appreciates its benefits irrespective of its external coloring! 

Whole World Botanicals was founded with a vision of helping ordinary people assume more responsibility for their health by extending their healthy eating to include dietary supplements that could transform their quality of life.

We turn them into potent powder concentrates, liquid and dry extracts, teas, and specialty products.”- Whole World Botanicals 

Whole World Botanicals is a woman-owned business; it was founded in 1998 by three social entrepreneurs: Viana Muller Ph.D., an American anthropologist; Elena Rojas-Martinez, a Peruvian midwife; and the late Sidney McDaniel, Ph.D., a distinguished botanist specializing in species of the upper Amazon River Basin.

Here’s a look at just two botanical supplements from the Whole World Botanicals range, these are Royal Maca® and SHE™ Mood & Hormone Balance Formula. 

 

Royal Maca® for Hormonal Support, Healthy Reproductive Function, and Balance 

Whole World Botanicals has a varied range of Maca Root supplements; these products can help Women and Men, here’s a peek at some benefits! 

 




 

Health benefits for women include: 

Many women with hormone imbalances are looking for alternatives to pharmaceutical products. 

From the time they start menstruating, through their child-bearing years, and on into menopause, Royal Maca® can help a woman’s body balance its hormones naturally. It does this primarily through increasing tissue levels of IGF-1, a precursor hormone produced by the liver that is crucial for balancing all endocrine-gland hormones. Other benefits include: 

  • It promotes a healthy libido and reproductive function

  • It supports collagen-based structures such as bone, muscle, hair, nails, and skin

  • It supports neurotransmitter hormones that can affect mood, sleep, and cognitive function. 

Whole World Botanicals customers have been able to balance their hormones and experience relief from both estrogen dominance (such as painful/heavy periods and PMS) and estrogen depletion which may appear as hot flashes, night sweats, a low libido, vaginal dryness, brain fog, and bone density issues. Ultimately, Specialty Royal Maca® products are designed to help women throughout their life cycle. 

 

Health benefits for men include: 

Men also experience problems with hormone balancing. Whole World Botanicals offers Royal Maca® products for men that increase the number of testosterone receptors on cells for better uptake of testosterone in the body.  

  • Royal Maca® also supports healthy erectile function and a healthy prostate gland.  

  • Many customers report better stamina, including mentally and physically

  • Supports clearer thinking and can significantly increase libido. 

The great news is that through this supplement, men need not rely on testosterone injections or patches which can end up further decreasing their testosterone and overall hormonal balance. 

 

Whole World Botanicals has sourced its certified organic Maca roots directly with the same Maca growing communities since 1998. 

 

Here’s some info on the Maca process utilized by Whole World Botanicals: 

  • Bioavailability – Maca is grown with prayers, it is planted and harvested according to the phases of the moon in the traditional way of millennia.

  • Whole World Botanicals has always provided concentrated cooked Maca. Peruvians never eat raw Maca which can contain harmful enzymes. It is also less effective for hormone balancing. 

  • Maca roots used in Royal Maca® are sun-dried. This is a traditional process that takes 6 to 8 weeks. Most Maca companies use electric dryers to dry their Maca roots, this does not allow time for the development of the vital phytochemicals that provide the highest potency for hormone balancing.

  • No excipients, flow agents, or other additives are added to Whole World Botanicals Royal Maca® powder.

Royal Maca® is the most potent and economical Maca product on the market. Many companies recommend 1 teaspoon to 2 tablespoons for serving size, whereas Royal Maca® dosing ranges from 1/6th teaspoon to 1 teaspoon maximum.

 

SHE™ Mood & Hormone Balance Formula 

SHE™ is the only product on the market that combines the hormonal balancing effects of Royal Maca® and mood-balancing & pain-relief support derived from Camu-Camu!  

Finally, here we have a life-changing natural alternative for petite or sensitive women! This is for mothers and daughters, teenagers, and mid-life women, a supplement that works! SHETM Mood & Hormone Balance Formula is a product for women who have lost hope in finding a supplement that does not cause side effects** when trying to control hot flashes and night sweats. 

The formula in SHE™ has proven to be very effective for relief from symptoms caused by hormone imbalance. As soon as a young woman begins to menstruate, she can benefit from taking Royal Maca®

 

**Side effects may include an increase in hot flashes, tender breasts, insomnia, and anxiety. Dietary changes may also be needed to achieve optimal hormone balance. SHE™ should not be taken with birth control pills unless it is the progestin-only or “minipill”. 
 

Royal Maca® Vitality-Libido-Balance, as well as Royal Maca® for Menopause capsules and Royal Maca® Powder, can be overstimulating for some petite or sensitive women. The tiny amount of Royal Maca® combined with Royal Camu® in SHE™ capsules works much better for these women than either one separately.   


Both
Royal Camu® and Royal Maca® are Energizing Super-Foods which support: 

  • Reduction of painful periods, PMS, peri-menopausal, and menopausal symptoms

  • Healthy skin, hair, nails

  • Better mood balance & reduction of stress 

  • Production of anti-inflammatory estrogen

  • Healthy progesterone levels

 

Whole World Botanicals TRUE DEFINITION OF PETITE / SENSITIVE

  • If your height is less than 5’4” (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.

  • If you usually need less than the normal dosage for supplements and prescription drugs and usually develop side effects to herbs and drugs, you likely fit our “sensitive” category.
