Question 1

i want to gain healthy weight on my breasts,buttocks,hips. is taking maca root and fenugreek seeds same time safe for this? i am 19 going to 20 girl.

Accepted Answer

Waste of time/effort: Your body contour is based more on your genetic endowment/athletic endeavors than anything else. It is a myth that you could increase size/ distribution of muscle mass or size by taking any supplement. They are not regulated as to claims or effectiveness so you can try them if you wish, they are considered safe in common doses. However, I consider them a waste of time/effort.

Question 2

hello sir,
my buttocks are swelling (enlarged) that seems odd but at the same time, it doesn't pain at all. is there any problem with my body ?

Accepted Answer

Possible: It may be that you have some local problem there such as a cyst or some more systemic problem such as fluid (oedema) or some hormonal or skeletal problem causing distorted proportions etc.  Need to see a doctor as will require an examination and may require tests to sort it out.

Question 3

can one use  breast enlargement pills and creams to make our buttocks bigger?

Accepted Answer

Not at all: These pills are sold on the internet and other places but there is no evidence to support their use either for breast enlargement or buttocks.
As a matter of fact they can be dangerous and may cause harm.

Question 4

is maca root safe to take?

Accepted Answer

Safety: It is considered as safe to eat as any other vegetable food. However, maca does contain glucosinolates, which can cause goiters when high consumption is combined with a diet low in iodine. Darker colored maca roots (red, purple, black) contain significant amounts of natural iodine, a 10-gram serving of dried maca generally containing 52 µg of iodine.  It is uncertain if maca can worsen a goiter.

Question 5

where could i buy maca root?

Accepted Answer

Peruvian Ginseng: I would expect that this could be purchased on line and possibly at some health food grocers.

Question 6

can i still take maca roots?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Maca root seems to be safe to take for its stimulant properties. Always follow the directions on the container and never take with any other medication.

Question 7

i'm taking maca root what will it do for me?

Accepted Answer

Probably not much...: Some people believe that maca root can increase fertility, among other things. There are not much human data to support this, though in animal models the data look a little more promising. Another area that has better data is in the area of sexual dysfunction caused by ssri antidepressants.

Question 8

what is maca root and what it does to females?

Accepted Answer

Hormone balance: Maca is a nutritionally dense super-food that contains high amounts of minerals, vitamins, enzymes and all of the essential amino acids. Maca root is rich in b-vitamins, which are the energy vitamins, and maca is a vegetarian source of b-12. To boot, maca has high levels of bioavailable calcium and magnesium and is great for reminilization. Balances the hypothalamus and pituitary gland.

Question 9

what are the positive and negative affects to using maca root?

Accepted Answer

MACA is GREAT: www.pubmed.gov; only a few studies have been performed but both these and ethnobotanical experience show this herb to be effective in treating sexual dysfunction including that which is related to side effects of anti-depressants.  Very few negative effects are reported and they are vague.  Some suggestion of interference in thyroid patients is postulated.
