Abstract

Maca (Lepidium meyenii) is a tuber root plant of the Brassicaceae family that grows on Andes mountain’s high altitude steps. Its tuber roots have rich nutrition contents and bioactive compounds as sterols, glucosinolates, alkaloids, alkamides (macaene, macamides), saponin and tanin. Beside of its traditional usage, the studies in recent years presented its capabilities that are energizer, aphrodisiac, improving reproduction, hormonal balancing, improving homeostasis, antioksidant, anticarcinogen and antistress. When Maca was used as a dietary additive at the many researches in humans and animals, no toxic effect was determined. Further studies are required to identify the compounds of Maca, their chemical structures, the mechanism of action and to use of Maca as a safe and natural feed additive in animal nutrition

Özet

Özet: Maca And dağlarının yüksek platolarında yetişen ve Brassicaceae (Turpgiller) ailesine ait yumru köklü bir bitkidir. Yumru kökleri zengin besleyici içeriğe ve steroller, glikosiyonatlar, alkaloidler, alkamideler (macaene, macamideler), saponin ve tanin gibi biyoaktif bileşiklere sahiptir. Geleneksel kullanımının yanında son yıllarda yayınlanan araştırmalarda da enerji verici, afrodizyak, reprodüksiyonu destekleyici, hormonal denge kurucu, homeostasisi sağlayıcı, antioksidan, antikarsinojen ve antistres özellikleri ortaya çıkarılmıştır. İnsanlar ve hayvanlarda yapılan çalışmalarda özellikle gıda takviyesi olarak kullanılan Maca’nın toksik etkiye sahip olmadığı görülmüştür. Maca’nın tam içeriğinin, kimyasal yapısının ve etki mekanizmasının belirlenmesi ve güvenilir doğal bir yem katkı maddesi olarak hayvan beslemede de kullanılabilmesi için ileride yapılacak çalışmalara ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır.
