“There’s More to Maca” with Dr. Deanna Minich

​

Most people think of maca as a superfood powder to put in smoothies; however, botanical, genomic, and clinical research over the past decades has suggested that maca has more complexity than initially realized. In this presentation, Dr. Deanna Minich will discuss how to decipher maca sources and their functions, clarify common misunderstandings, provide a summary of gaps and interesting lesser-known findings in scientific research, as well as clinical applications, especially in relationship to women’s health issues, including fertility, perimenopause, bone health, and even how to use it together with HRT for optimal impact.
