Post Menopause

Maca-GO™, Natural Health International’s proprietary product, is the sole ingredient of Femmenessence™ MacaPause™. It is harvested from NHI's own controlled plantation, and goes through specific drying and patented, 100% natural, manufacturing processes and is a combination of phenotypes of a specific variety of organic maca (lepidium peruvianum Chacon).

Maca-GO™ is ONLY available in NHI products and is the ONLY scientifically and clinically proven menopausal product made from maca.

Maca-GO™ is a concentrated, highly bio-available form of maca, and has been analytically proven to contain not only the complete spectrum, but higher concentrations of all actives compared to maca extracts currently on the market.
