The Super Secret Sexy Side of Cordyceps and Maca Root

We’re here to remind you that love for others, and self love, too - ahem - are excellent ways to maintain your sanity and find joy. To aid in this pursuit of happiness, we want to remind you of the scintillating side effects of the sexy combo that is our Motivate Gummies. 

Cordyceps Mushrooms are often referred to as Himalayan Viagra due to their positive effects in enhancing sexual stamina. And Maca Root is considered Peruvian Viagra, for it’s magical ability to also improve libido. Both of these mechanisms come from the ability of these ingredients to increase blood flow and circulation. Not to mention, to give you the mental and physical boost to get a little frisky.   

Here’s a deep dive around how each works:

Cordyceps' effects on libido and sexual health are believed to stem from the following:

1. Improved Blood Flow:
   Cordyceps may help improve blood circulation, which can enhance function and arousal.

2. Energy and Stamina:
   Cordyceps is thought to boost ATP production (the energy currency of cells) and oxygen utilization, which can increase energy levels and endurance, potentially improving sexual performance.

3. Hormonal Balance:
   It may stimulate the production of sex hormones, such as testosterone, which plays a role in libido for both men and women.

4. Aphrodisiac Properties:
   Traditional medicine has long regarded cordyceps as an aphrodisiac, enhancing desire and sexual function.

Maca root is commonly used for its adaptogenic and hormonal balancing properties. Here's how it may help libido:

1. Hormonal Regulation:
   Maca doesn’t directly boost hormone production but is believed to help balance hormone levels, which can lead to increased libido in both men and women.

2. Improved Mood and Energy:
   By reducing stress and improving energy levels, Maca can indirectly enhance sexual desire and stamina.

3. Enhanced Fertility:
   Studies suggest Maca may improve reproductive health in both men and women, which could indirectly impact libido.

4. Increased Sexual Desire:
   Several studies have linked Maca to increased libido, especially in people experiencing low sexual desire due to stress, aging, or hormonal changes.

Using Cordyceps and Maca root together might have synergistic benefits due to their combined ability to boost energy, improve blood flow, and balance hormones.
