Maca Tru™ and

Medicine Hunter

Maca Stimulant™

Chris Kilham is widely known for his sustainability work with maca and the native people of the Peruvian Highlands, where maca is grown. His inspiring story was featured on the front page of the Business section of the New York Times  this past New Year's Day.  Maca has been a life-sustaining substance in the Andes since 3800 B.C. It is legendary for delivering energy, mental clarity, and enhancing libido. Maca Stimulant and

Maca Tru  are both available

online at Herbal Powers. MacaTru is available offline

at Whole Foods Supermarkets,

and in Natural Retailers.

 

 

 



Chris Kilham with two Orang Asli guides carries a Tongkat Ali root in the Malaysian rainforest, as seen in the Washington Post, Medicine Hunter Stalks the Wild Libido Booster, by Natalie Hopkinson.  Tongkat Ali (Eurycoma longifolia) is a popular Sutheast Asian remedy for malaria, and fever.  The root contains novel compounds that greatly enhance sexual health, lean muscle mass and overall energy.

"I want people using safer medicine.  And that means plant medicine."

Thank you for visiting medicinehunter.com, the website of Medicine Hunter Chris Kilham.

Chris travels the world in search of traditional, plant-based medicines, and works with shamans, healers, growers, harvesters, scientists, trade officials and other plant medicine experts in dozens of countries. This work always involves a collaboration of talented people.

Plant medicines are used by over 5 billion people worldwide. Here you can gain an understanding of the role of plant medicines in the world. Chris and those he works with are dedicated to providing healing benefits, protecting the natural environment, and promoting the interests of traditional indigenous cultures.

Currently, global health care is in crisis, the natural environment is undergoing widespread devastation, and indigenous people and their knowledge are disappearing at a rapid rate. What can we do to help? At Medicine Hunter we focus on traditional plant-based medicines and their sustainable trade as a way to contribute to a better world.
