Description
Maca Blue Superfood Blend
Maca Blue is a unique product available only from The Maca Team.
It is a delicious colorful superfood blend designed to give you a healthy energy boost and increased immune function. It contains just 2 organic, whole food ingredients:
- Tri-Color Gelatinized Maca Powder - for natural hormone balance and sustained energy
- Blue Spirulina – for immune support, potent antioxidants and complete protein (more on its benefits below)
Maca Blue Description:
We've created our maca and spirulina blend using our high quality Peruvian grown tri-color maca root powder and U.S. grown blue spirulina powder (phycocyanin). This gives you benefits from all three of the maca colors, red, yellow and black, plus the benefits of blue spirulina (the most potent part of spirulina). Maca root powder is excellent as a natural hormone balancer and energy booster and blue spirulina powder is linked to a variety of positive health benefits including immune system stimulation, liver protection and heart health.
Maca Blue Benefits:
We notice several positive outcomes from adding this energy and immunity superfood blend to our diet.
- Feeling satiated. Both maca and spiriulina powders alone are nutrient dense foods. Together they offer a signficant of functional nutrition. After enjoying Maca Blue, you are likely to feel full longer. This can be helpful for weight loss.
- Energy and focus. Many people report that Maca Blue supports their overall energy and mental focus more than just plain maca powder does.
- Better workouts and recovery. We have seen that we have stronger workouts and that our recovery time is less when taking Maca Blue.
We are excited to see how you do with this maca and spirulina blend and what other benefits you notice.
Maca Blue is great if you:
- Want an ultra-healthy energy drink
- Are looking to improve strength, endurance and recovery
- Need more mental focus and clarity
- Want to add maca and spirulina to your diet in a fun, tasty and colorful way

Maca Blue Serving Recommendations:
Enjoy Maca Blue mixed into your favorite drink, either cool or warm. We prefer mixing it into almond or hemp milk (that way you get the full beauty of the blue color). You can also add it to your favorite smoothie blend.
- 1 T / 9 g of powder works well with 8 ounces / 225 ml of liquid. You can increase or decrease the amount to suit your tastes.
- 1 T / 9 g of Maca Blue contains about 6 g of maca powder. You can still take your standard daily serving of maca separately if you like.
Maca Blue is great as a “pick-me-up” anytime you need a boost throughout the day. We prefer taking it in the morning. Just keep in mind that some people do have a harder time sleeping if they enjoy maca powder shortly before bedtime.

Frequently Asked Questions about Maca Blue
Please note that we are not doctors and that the answers below are not intended as medical advice. If you have any doubts about using Maca Blue or any of our products please consult your preferred health care practitioner.
1. Does Maca Blue taste like spirulina?
No. Blue spirulina is neutral in taste. Mixed with our maca it has a mild caramel-like taste.
2. Is Maca Blue's color natural?
Yes it is. It comes from the blue spirulina. In fact, blue spirulina is sometime used as a natural food coloring
3. Is Maca Blue raw?
No. Not 100%. We use gelatinized (pre-cooked) maca powder so that everyone can easily take it. The blue spirulina is uncooked.
4. Is Maca Blue a replacement for my daily maca?
It can be, if you take enough Maca Blue to get your daily serving of Maca (1 T Maca Blue contains about 6g Maca).
5. How many times a day can I enjoy Maca Blue?
Once or twice and especially pre-workout.
6. Why is Maca Blue so pricey?
That’s mainly because of the costs of high-quality spirulina powder. We use certified organic U.S. grown spirulina.
7. Can I take Maca Blue with high blood pressure?
Because it contains Maca, it is possible that the blend will help circulation and potentially reduce blood pressure. Please monitor your blood pressure and consult with your doctor if you have questions.
8. Can I take Maca Blue if I have diabetes?
Yes, it contains no added sugars.
9. Can I take Maca Blue if I am pregnant or breast feeding?
Maca in general is used throughout pregnancy and breast feeding in Peru. But if you have any doubts check with your doctor.

This blend is a food and should not interfere with any herbs, supplements or medications. If you have any doubts, we recommend that you take only a small amount to start with and monitor your reaction.

Blue Maca
My wife and I had taken tricolor maca for a few years and ate huge fans of all its benefits! When you introduced blue maca, we became curious as to it's claimed additional benefits. We tried it and could not be happier! We recommend it to anyone who will listen!

Blue Maca
I use red and black maca every morning in my protein shake and love it. So I added Blue Maca in an afternoon protein shake. Love the taste. Mixes very good and I use this 1 hour before my workout. Blue Maca has helped with my typical afternoon energy crash which I no more due to Blue Maca. It is fast becoming my favorite Maca
