Ngày 8/8/2015 gặp gỡ Juan Ruiz Aguila tại khách sạn Sheraton Hanoi.

Ông chúc mừng chúng tôi là doanh nghiệp đầu tiên đưa sản phẩm Maca Peru về Việt Nam.

Ông là người Mỹ gốc Peru, hiện nay con gái ông là một trong nhà nghiên cứu về hiệu quả Maca Peru đối với tăng khả năng sinh sản nữ giới tại phòng nghiên cứu BioMed tại Mỹ, bài nghiên cứu được đăng trên tạp chí Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology (Sinh học sinh sản và nội tuyến học) . Bài nghiên của cô là một bài nghiên cứu đầu tiên xác nhận khả năng giúp tăng cường khả năng sinh sản ở nữ giới của maca Peru

Ông giới thiệu bài nghiên cứu cho chúng tôi có tựa đề:

(2005) Abstract

Background: Lepidium meyenii, known as Maca, grows exclusively in the Peruvian Andes over

4000 m altitude. It has been used traditionally to increase fertility. Previous scientific studies have

demonstrated that Maca increases spermatogenesis and epididymal sperm count.

The present study was aimed to investigate the effects of Maca on several fertility parameters of female mice at 

reproductive age.

Methods: Adult female Balb/C mice were divided at random into three main groups: i)

Reproductive indexes group, ii) Implantation sites group and iii) Assessment of uterine weight in

ovariectomized mice. Animals received an aqueous extract of lyophilized Yellow Maca (1 g/Kg BW)

or vehicle orally as treatment. In the fertility indexes study, animals received the treatment before,

during and after gestation.

The fertility index, gestation index, post-natal viability index, weaning

viability index and sex ratio were calculated. Sexual maturation was evaluated in the female pups

by the vaginal opening (VO) day. In the implantation study, females were checked for implantation

sites at gestation day 7 and the embryos were counted. In ovariectomized mice, the uterine weight

was recorded at the end of treatment.

Results: Implantation sites were similar in mice treated with Maca and in controls. All reproductive

indexes were similar in both groups of treatment. The number of pups per dam at birth and at

postnatal day 4 was significantly higher in the group treated with Maca. VO day occurred earlier as

litter size was smaller.

Maca did not affect VO day. In ovariectomized mice, the treatment with

Maca increased significantly the uterine weights in comparison to their respective control group.

Conclusion: Administration of aqueous extract of Yellow Maca to adult female mice increases the

litter size. Moreover, this treatment increases the uterine weight in ovariectomized animals.

Our study confirms for the first time some of the traditional uses of Maca to enhance female fertility.

Chúc quý khách một ngày tốt lành!
