About Product

Maca root is a root vegetable native to the Andes mountains of Peru, where it has long been used as a nutritional supplement and an herbal remedy.

It is a cruciferous vegetable and belongs to the same family as cabbage, kale, and broccoli.

The powder is made from the root of the maca plant, which is dried and then ground into a fine, nutrient-dense powder.

It has been used in Peru for centuries to boost health. The powder contains proteins, minerals, vitamins, and amino acids.

Today, it is gaining popularity due to its versatility and unique qualities. It can be used in smoothies, baked goods, and other dishes to add a nutty, earthy flavor.

  • Minerals: Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Potassium, Zinc, Copper, Manganese, Selenium, Boron
  • Vitamins: Vitamin C, Thiamin, Riboflavin, Niacin, Vitamin B6, Beta-carotene, Vitamin D3

  • Sterols: Brassicasterol, Ergosterol, Campesterol, Ergostadienol, Sitosterol
  • Fatty Acids: Unsaturated, C12-0-Dodecanoic (lauric), C13-1-7- Tridecanoic

How to use your Maca Root powder

Suggested Use: Mix one tablespoon with juice, yogurt, or your favorite smoothie.

Other preparations:

Tincture - This method can take 15 to 30 days. You will need three items (a mason jar with a cover, the herb/herbs of your choice, and liquid for extracting). The extracting liquid can be alcohol, alcohol/ water combo, vinegar, or vegetable glycerin. Take the product and fill the jar ¾ full, add the liquid of your choice, and close the jar. Then shake the jar so everything is well mixed. Give the jar a good 5-minute shake several times a day. After 15 to 30 days, strain and bottle in glass tincture jars.
Mixing suggestions: To increase flavor and nutritional profile, combine our organic extra-rich cacao and lucuma powders in a smoothie.

Hormone support as we age

My husband and I have been using the organic raw Maca root powder for almost a year now. We add it to our daily super greens shake as a hormone support for both of us. We used to use Maca capsules from another company which did very little for our hormones as we were aging. But once we started using a heaping tablespoon in our shake within a few days we both noticed an increase in energy, a little more pep in our mood, and definitely helped with our hormones. It actually helped bring a little more romance to this aging couple. We highly recommend the organic raw Maca root powder, we use it daily without fail. We order it in bulk so we're never without it. It's a reasonable price and usually ships very quickly. I wouldn't age without this wonderful root.

Maca man. Organic maca. (Maca is a South American turnip, generally grows in high elevation lands)

The locals in the mountains use maca as food for themselves and some animals as well. It is a slow growing plant in a high elevation and that contributes to the fact that maca is packed full of vitamins and minerals. The dry powder maca most of us get, is generally due to storage capability and lower weight means less shipping cost. Maca, is simply a South American turnip, that can survive at the tops of mountains and high dry elevations.

Love this adaptogen!

From almost the first day of use, I noticed more energy! Also my hormones were out of balance and I recently had labs done. Everything was back to normal! I also love the nutty taste.
