Reduces Sun Damage
Maca root has been used for centuries to provide exceptional protection against sun damage. The maca root powder found in local health food stores is made from the Peruvian maca plant’s dried roots, which grow at high altitudes in the Andes mountains.
It contains a variety of carotenoids, such as beta-carotene and zeaxanthin, which make it a natural sunscreen that can help shield a person’s skin from UVA and UVB rays. In addition to preventing wrinkles, maca root also helps treat age spots, inflammation caused by sun damage, and even skin cancer.
