Need a quick jolt of energy? Then grab yourself some maca. A root derived from the radish family, maca typically comes ready-to-use in powdered form.

With a plethora of health benefits, from increased energy to hormone balance, it’s no wonder this superfood has gained popularity over the years. Maca certainly is one of the most effective natural remedies for boosting energy.

Do you doubt maca powder benefits ? Maca is a great source of vitamins and minerals. It contains vitamins B12, B1, B2, C, and E along with a rich source of protein that is beneficial for vegetarians and vegans.

Maca also contains trace elements: iron, calcium, zinc and magnesium. Composed primarily of 60-75% carbohydrates, 10-14% protein, fiber and a small amount of fat, this may explain maca’s ability to boost energy as well as focus the brain.

Maca’s brain boosting power is exactly why this superfood makes such a terrific pick me up. Instead of reaching for a cup of coffee during that midway slump, utilize maca for it’s energizing qualities. I’ve been working to break my afternoon coffee pick me up with a maca latte instead.

Simply steam milk and stir in a tablespoon of maca and sweeten to your desired preferences. While it does have a different flavor and depth than coffee does, I find that I really enjoy the taste of maca & maca powder benefits, and all the health benefits are just too good to ignore!

Health Benefits of Maca:

strengthens bones
regulates and balances hormones
increases fertility
increases libido
reduces anxiety and depression
reduces the symptoms of menopause
improves mental clarity and focus
increases endurance and energy

And that’s just the main health benefits of maca ! Maca also benefits the skin, improves circulation in the body and enhances memory.

The best part? You only need about 1 tablespoon of maca a day to yield it’s benefits! Maca is simple to add to your diet, but due to it’s slightly “malted” flavor, it is best in smoothies, puddings, raw sweets and juices.

Another great way to incorporate maca into your diet is by mixing it into raw goodies, such as these Maca Super Bites!

These Maca Super Bites get their energy jolt from maca, however carob powder also contributes to these Super Bites.

Giving the bites a rich, chocolate-like flavor, carob powder boosts the anti-oxidant and nutrient power, making these Maca Super Bites not only a great late afternoon pick me up, but also a tasty, nutritious treat!

Maca Super Bites

Makes 12 bites

1/4 cup carob powder
1/2 cup natural almond butter
1/4 teaspoon Himalayan sea salt

Do You Know Your Body’s Most Important Weight Loss Secret?

By J. Davis III

Tags: HEALING | HEALTHY FATS | REMEDIES

Recently, Doctor of Naturopathy, weight-loss expert and best-selling Amazon author Liz Swann Miller, creator of the Red Smoothie Detox Factor, revealed 2 of the secrets to easy, steady weight loss. Secrets the big food corporations do their best to hide from us.

Secret #1: Enjoy real food. Don’t fall for the lie that you have to deprive yourself to lose weight.

Secret #2: stop eating out. You will automatically eat less without even noticing.

Then start detoxing your body with tasty, nourishing smoothies that are just as easy on your wallet as they are easy to make.

Because a single day of enjoying Liz’ smoothies demonstrated the radical power of her superfood-packed red smoothies to make me feel incredibly good.

Now prepare yourself for one of the biggest weight loss secrets there is. A secret that, when you use it properly, can transform your body and your health.

You probably know most of us eat too much processed food. What you may not know is that it’s full of toxic chemicals and substandard, dirt-cheap ingredients designed to make you eat more…and force you to gain weight.

Here’s how it works...

“That stuff is just a lot of calories your body can’t use,” Liz told me, “Some are poison. And all these foods are stripped of the anti-oxidants and anti-inflammatories that help your body detox. The result? Your body expends huge amounts of calories to eliminate some toxins—the rest, it stores in your fat to protect you. This is why most people are hungry all the time. They’re not getting energy they need.”

“So… what’s going on with me? Why am I losing weight but not going hungry?”

Liz paused, then dropped the bombshell.

Your body is designed to burn fat. You just have to let it.

“What? I thought we were designed to store fat?!?” We were Skyping and I was practically shouting. Then I heard Liz say…

What good is a fat reserve if you can’t burn it?

Mind blown...

Liz continued: “You’re drinking smoothies packed with phytonutrients, anti-oxidants and anti-inflammatories that pull toxins out of you like a tractor beam. Allowing your body to burn those toxin-filled fat stores… and releasing tremendous amounts of stored energy.”

So that’s why I’m losing weight without going hungry.

Watch Liz’ free presentation. It’s packed with revolutionary weight loss information—information that works. Because it’s based on how nature works.
