If you’re a bodybuilder who uses anabolic steroids, you need to be quite aware of the potential for prostate growth. You also need to take safeguards to ensure your monitor any growth, as it can affect your life greatly. However, there is a great deal of emerging research which details the effectiveness of red maca in combating prostate growth.

The prostate itself is a fairly safe organ for half of your life, then a fairly risky one for the latter portion of your life. It grows from age 1 through 20, which is perfectly natural. Then it halts growth for twenty years, from age 20 through 40. Somewhere between the ages of 40 and 50, it begins to grow once again. It will then continue to grow for the rest of your life. At some point in your life, whether it be age 50 or 70 or 90 or even 110, your prostate will inevitably develop cancer and kill you (unless it is removed upon detection). The prostate is almost a ticking time bomb, and one which many AAS users tend to toy with.

When you use steroids, your prostate begins growing. It doesn’t matter what age you are. A slow and gradual growth begins, due to the presence of cell receptors in the organ which are very receptive to the chemicals found in anabolic steroids. Just as your muscle experience a sudden, unnatural growth, some internal organs do as well. While most men don’t have to worry about the intrusive prostate exam involving the doctor asking you to bend over while putting on a plastic glove, bodybuilders should.

Red maca is a naturally occurring plant which is found in certain places of the world, including the Amazon. It is available in many natural food stores, or from website which feature unique and rare supplements and other natural remedies. For centuries, indigenous peoples from all over the globe have used the red maca plant for halting cell growth of internal ailments, including prostate disease. Researchers have found that the supplement reduces the total weight of the prostate in laboratory animals. And more receipt studies have shown that when delivered to animals in conjunction with testosterone supplementation, the prostate still shrunk. This can be fascinating news for bodybuilders, as it show the effectiveness of red maca for halting both natural and ‘assisted’ prostate growth. Can red maca drastically reduce prostate problems in male athletes using anabolic steroids? The jury is still out!

The good news for steroid users is that when used carefully, there isn’t major risk to long-term prostate growth. If you use for 3 months, then take a 2 month break each time, the chances of you developing prostate growth amounting to anything more than an inconvenience isn’t all that large. However, if you do stay on testosterone year-round, you do create a set of circumstances in the body ripe for risk of disease or damage. Whatever your AAS habits, you should look into red maca as a possible aid for reducing or entirely preventing prostate growth as you use steroids.
