I am on high blood pressure medication, a diuretic, a cholesterol-lowering medication and I take meds for my diabetes
A: : Whole World Botanicals has never heard of an adverse event, as the doctors call them, from adding Royal Maca as a supplement to their multiple medication schedule. Maca root is a food, a cruciferous root vegetable, albeit with very special hormone-balancing and tonic properties. However, you should start with a very small amount – one capsule daily – since you suffer from high blood pressure. After 2 or 3 months you can increase to two capsules daily.
Maca root is considered an adaptogen which means that someone with low blood pressure can often increase their blood pressure by taking maca while those with high blood pressure can gradually reduce their blood pressure (diet and exercise are important also) by taking Royal Maca. Your medications and your supplements can work together often for a better result. Be sure to let your doctor know what you are doing and get his/her consent. If he/she is totally herb/supplement unfriendly, you might want to consider changing physicians.
