Anti-Stress Effect of two Extracts of Maca Enriched in Glucosinolates. Capcha R, Marcelo A, Rojas P, Ramos A, Plaza A, Aguilar JL. Draft Paper

In this study a group of BaLB/C strain mice (Mus musculus) of 50-60 days of age and 20-30 weigh were used to evaluate the anti-stress activity of an extract of Lepidium meyenii.

The animals were dosed with Maca extracts enriched with glucosinolates which were inoculated via oral by needle for 100 days. Stress was induced by electrical stimulation, which served to evaluate the development of neurotic features using the modified Lopez scale.

Results showed that the extracts from Maca enriched with glucosinolates had a significantly better anti-stress activity compared to the control group.
