Shilajit Maca Latte for Hormonal Health

 

I love Shilajit and found this Shilajit maca latte recipe @ lotus blooming herbs site. Shilajit contains fulvic acid and has more than 84 minerals! It acts as an antioxidant to improve immunity and memory, functions as an anti-inflammatory, boosts energy, acts as a diuretic to remove excess fluid from the body, and supports brain, heart sex hormones and iron absorption.

It's great for hormone imbalances which can cause a host of health issues including fatigue, hair loss, brain fog, muscle aches/pains, fertility issues and low libido. While the treatment protocols vary for each individual and should  be guided by a qualified health professional, there are many supplements that are beneficial for the journey. Both Shilajit and maca root have been used for generations to support hormone health and general wellbeing in men and women. They both:

• Boost energy and stamina
• Support hormone health in men and women
• Support healthy skin and hair
• Promote lean muscle mass
• Boost mental focus

While maca alone is incredibly beneficial for Ayurveda hormone balance and health, when combined with Shilajit, the results are multiplied. Shilajit has a property called Yogavahi, which means that it enhances the absorption and efficacy of any herb it is taken with.

This vegan Shilajit Maca Latte Recipe is the perfect alternative to coffee, which can actually stress the adrenals and cause further hormone imbalances. We recommend using gelatinized maca powder as it is easier to digest.
