It is a root vegetable found in the mountains of South America (Peru). It is a plant that can be eaten and has medicinal purposes as well. It is considered to be a very active ingredient that is has numerous benefits but is famous for its great enhancing abilities with regards to fertility and sexual function. The plant itself has many different nutrients and compounds. There are no actual specifications or clarity as to how maca root works exactly but it has been found out that it does not seem to affect the levels of hormones in the body.

Most capsules have 500 milligrams of dried ground maca powder. This dosage recommends intake of about three to six capsules daily. Maca root is not a drug so it can be used and ingested continuously. Taking it for a short period of time might not derive the best results. Consistent usage of Maca is therefore recommended. However, it is always still best to consult with your health care provider just to be safe.
Of course taking anything in moderation is always the best idea. Everything in quantity is not always good. Caution is advised prior to taking the supplement if you have any chronic medical illness, liver diseases such as liver cirrhosis, hepatitis or liver failure, kidney problems such as kidney failure, and allergies that you have such as to food, dyes, or preservatives. It is also recommended to have your health practitioner know if you are pregnant or thinking of becoming pregnant or is breastfeeding.

Some forms of maca supplement have only 450 milligrams per capsule and has recommendations of ingestion of only one capsule but to be taken twice daily. The daily dosage depends on the supplement and its formulation. The idea is that the more maca supplement you consume, the more benefits you will reap.
Maca is a secure, efficient and harmless way to radically improve and boost ones sexual function without the danger that prescription drugs present. However, let us not forget that too much is also not good for the body. Even if there has been no reports yet and none whatsoever adverse effects have been seen at present.
