IMaca vs Impande yeMaca kanye nezinzuzo zezinhlobo eziphuzi, ezimnyama nezibomvu kwamadoda

Uzama ukunquma phakathi kwe-maca ne-maca root? Kumadoda anentshisekelo yokwandisa ukuzala kwawo, amandla kanye nempilo yamahomoni, ukwazi umehluko kungaba usizo. Impande ye-maca, eyimvelaphi yase-Peruvian Andes, ibithandwa isikhathi eside ngenxa yezinzuzo zayo ezingaba khona empilweni yokuzala yamadoda. Kodwa umbuzo wokuthi imuphi umumo nombala—impande ye-maca ephuzi, emnyama noma ebomvu—osebenza kangcono ufanelwe ukucwaningwa. Futhi ngezinketho ezifana ne-maca extract nofulawa, ngayinye inezinzuzo zayo, ake singene ekutheni ungayisebenzisa kanjani i-maca ukuze uthuthukise ukuzala kwakho ngendlela yemvelo.

Kuyini Okwehlukile Ngo-Maca Uma Iqhathaniswa Ne-Maca Root?

Uyazibuza ukuthi kukhona yini umehluko phakathi kwe-maca ne-maca root? Ngokuvamile, “maca” ibhekisela esitsheni sonke, kodwa “maca root” yiyo ngxenye ethola ukunakwa konke ngenxa yokuqukethwe kwayo kwezakhi-mzimba nezinzuzo zayo. Ingabe ufulawa we-maca uyafana ne-maca root? Yebo, uyafana. Ufulawa we-maca wenziwa ngokomisa nokugaya impande, uyiguqule ibe ufulawa omncane ogcwele izakhamzimba. Utholakala futhi njenge-extract egxilile, okusho amandla amakhulu ngenani elincane. Lapho ukhetha phakathi kwe-maca extract nofulawa, kuba ngokuthanda: ufulawa uyaguquguquka ekufakeni ezitsheni, kanti i-extract iyindlela elula, esheshayo kulabo abafuna umthamo onamandla [1].

Ithiphu ePhezulu: Sebenzisa ufulawa we-maca kuma-smoothie, noma ukhethe i-extract uma ufuna okuthile okusheshayo ongakuthatha uhamba.

I-Maca Ephuzi, Emnyama Nebomvu: Izinzuzo Ezikhethekile Zamadoda

Lezi zinhlobo ezintathu ze-maca—ephuzi, emnyama nebomvu—zinikeza izinzuzo ezihlukile ze-maca emnyama, ebomvu ne-ephuzi empilweni yamadoda. Uhlobo ngalunye lunamaphrofayela amancane ahlukile ezakhi-mzimba futhi, ngenxa yalokho, luwusizo ezindaweni ezahlukene zempilo, ikakhulukazi uma kukhulunywa ngamandla nomsebenzi wokuzala.

Impande ye-Maca Ephuzi

Impande ye-maca ephuzi iyona ejwayeleke kakhulu, yenza cishe u-60% wazo zonke izivuno ze-maca. Yaziwa ngokunambitheka kwayo okuthambile nokuzivumelanisa nezimo, izinzuzo ze-maca ephuzi zifaka phakathi ukulinganisela kwamahomoni jikelele nokusekelwa kwamandla aqhubekayo. Amadoda afuna amandla athambile nahlala isikhathi eside avame ukukhetha i-maca ephuzi. Izimfanelo zayo zokuzivumelanisa nomsindo womzimba zisiza umzimba ukubhekana nokucindezeleka, okungaba yisihluthulelo ekulinganiseni amahomoni nasesimweni sezempilo yokuzala ngokujwayelekile. I-maca ephuzi iyi-option enhle kumadoda afuna nje ukunyuswa kwamandla [2].

Ithiphu ephezulu: Zama i-yellow maca uma ufuna amandla ansuku zonke azinzile anezinga elincane lokusekelwa kwamahomoni eceleni.

Impande ye-Black Maca

Ibhekwa njenge “men’s maca” yokuthembela kuyo, i-black maca yaziwa kakhulu ngokusekela ukuzala kwabobaba (ukukhulelwa) kanye ne-libido. Izifundo zikhomba ukuthi i-black maca ingathuthukisa impilo yesidoda—ubuningi, ukunyakaza, nokunye konke. Kulabo abafuna ukwazi ukuthi iyiphi impande ye-maca engcono kakhulu empilweni yokuzala yamadoda, i-black maca ukukhetha okuhle kakhulu. Kuboniswe futhi ukuthi iyasiza ngamandla, ukucaca kwengqondo, nokubekezela, okuyenze ifanele amadoda asebenzayo afuna inzuzo eyengeziwe. I-black maca ingaba yiyo leyo maca engcono kakhulu empilweni yamadoda, ikakhulukazi ezindaweni zokubekezela nempilo enhle yokuzala [3].

Kubamadoda abaningi, omunye wemibuzo evame ukubuzwa nge-maca uthi ingabe i-maca ikwenza ube nesifiso sobulili nokuthi kuthatha isikhathi esingakanani ukuthi kubonakale imiphumela ebonakalayo ku-libido namazinga wamandla.

Ithiphu ephezulu: I-black maca yileyo okufanele uyikhethe uma ugxile ekuphileni kwesidoda, ekubekezeleni ngokomzimba, noma ekucaceni kwengqondo.

Impande ye-Red Maca

I-red maca inzima kancane ukutholakala kune-yellow noma i-black, kodwa iletha isethi yayo yezinzuzo, ikakhulukazi mayelana nempilo yamahomoni emadodeni nokusekelwa kwe-prostate. Iphrofayela ye-red maca ecebile kuma-antioxidant iyenza kube ukukhetha okuqinile ekulawuleni ukucindezeleka. Iphinde yaziwe ngokusekela i-prostate enempilo, okwenza ibe inketho ethandwayo emadodeni aneminyaka engaphezu kwengu-40. Uma kuqhathaniswa izinzuzo ze-black red yellow maca, i-red maca ivame ukuncongelwa amadoda adinga ibhalansi engcono yamahomoni noma afuna ukunciphisa ukucindezeleka kwe-oxidative, okungathinta impilo yokuzala ngezindlela ezincane kodwa ezibalulekile [4].

Ithiphu ephezulu: Uneminyaka engaphezu kwengu-40 futhi ufuna ibhalansi? I-red maca ingaba ukufanela kahle.

Ufulawa we-maca ovela e-Peru: I-superfood yendabuko

I-Maca isetshalwe e-Peru amakhulu eminyaka, futhi i-maca powder Peru isathathwa njengezinye ezingcono kakhulu ngenxa yenhlabathi ecebe ngamaminerali yase-Andes. I-Maca igcwele ama-amino acid, amavithamini, namaminerali, okwenza ibe inketho yemvelo enamandla yokusekela ukuzala. Ezingxoxweni phakathi kwe-maca extract ne-powder, ama-powder avame ukukhethwa ngenxa yokuguquguquka kwawo, kanti ama-extract anikeza umthamo ogxile emthamo omncane [5].

Ithiphu Ephezulu: Bheka i-maca powder eqinisekisiwe njenge-organic evela e-Peru ukuze uthole ikhwalithi ephezulu nokuqinisekiswa kokuthi iyiqiniso.

Yiziphi Izinhlobo ze-Maca Ezihamba Phambili Ekuzaleni Kwabesilisa?

Uma usawubuza ukuthi iyiphi i-maca engcono kakhulu ekuzaleni kwabantu besilisa, nansi isifinyezo esisheshayo:

• I-Black Maca: Imnandi kubesilisa abafuna ukukhulisa isifiso socansi, impilo yesidoda, namandla omzimba.
• I-Red Maca: Ikahle ekusekeleni impilo ye-prostate nasekubalanseni amahomoni, ikakhulukazi kubesilisa asebekhulile.
• I-Yellow Maca: Ilungele amandla ajwayelekile nempilo yonke, ikahle uma usaqala nje.

Uhlobo ngalunye lunikeza izinzuzo zalo ezihlukile ze-black red and yellow maca root ekuzaleni nasekuphileni kahle, kanti inhlanganisela yazo zonke ezintathu inganikeza uhla oluphephile nolulinganiselayo lwemiphumela [6].

Kulabo abathakasele ikakhulukazi ukuthi ukuzala nge-maca root kungathuthukisa kanjani impilo yokuzala futhi kwandise amathuba okukhulelwa, kubalulekile ukuqonda uhlobo olufanele nomthamo ofanele.

Ithiphu Ephezulu: Ingxube ye-yellow, black, kanye ne-red maca ingase ibe yinhle kakhulu uma ufuna indlela ebanzi yokusekela impilo yokuzala namandla.

Okubalulekile Ekugcineni

Umehluko phakathi kwe-maca ne-maca root ungabonakala udida, kodwa empeleni umayelana nokuthi ufuna ukuyifaka kanjani le superfood ohlelweni lwakho losuku. Noma ukhetha i-yellow, i-black, noma i-red, uhlobo ngalunye lwe-maca lunezinzuzo ezinamandla zempilo yabesilisa nokuzala. Uma uhlose ukuthuthukisa impilo yokuzala, cabanga ukuzama ingxube noma ugxile ezinhlotsheni ezimnyama nezinobomvu ukuze uthole imiphumela emihle kakhulu [7].

Imibuzo evame ukubuzwa

Iyiphi umbala we-maca root ongcono kakhulu ekuzaleni?

Kubantu besilisa, i-black maca ivame kunconywa ngenxa yomthelela wayo empilweni yesidoda kanye nesifiso socansi.

Ingabe kulungile ukuthatha i-maca nsuku zonke?

Yebo, i-maca ingathathwa nsuku zonke, kodwa qala ngomthamo omncane uwukhulise kancane kancane njengoba kudingeka.

Ingabe abesifazane nabo bangathatha i-black maca?

Nakanjani—abesifazane nabo bangazuza emandleni anyuswayo e-black maca, nakuba i-red maca ivame ukukhethwa uma kuziwa ekusekeleni amahomoni.

Ingabe kukhona umehluko omkhulu phakathi kwe-maca powder ne-maca extract?

Yebo. I-powder iwimpande ye-maca egayiwe, kanti i-extract iyifomu enamandla, egxile kakhulu, yize zombili zinikeza izinzuzo eziyinhloko ze-maca.

Kuzothatha isikhathi esingakanani ukuthi i-maca iqale ukusebenza?

Kuyehluka, kodwa abasebenzisi abaningi baqala ukubona imiphumela kungakapheli amasonto angu-6–12, ikakhulukazi uma besebenzisa njalo.
