Description

Organic Gelatinized Black Maca Powder

What Is Gelatinized Black Maca Powder?

Gelatinized black maca powder is made from black maca roots (Lepidium meyenii) grown in the high Andes of Peru. The roots are processed with heat and pressure to remove most of their natural starch content, creating a powder that many people find easier to digest than raw maca. No gelatin is added during this process. The finished product remains 100% plant-based and vegan.

Organic Gelatinized Black Maca Powder Overview

Our organic gelatinized black maca root powder comes from an organic farming cooperative in and around Junín, Peru.Organic Gelatinized Black Maca Powder from The Maca Team We work only with growers who manage their land locally and are committed to traditional agriculture, organic farming, and careful handling from harvest through production.

This gelatinized black maca powder contains only pure black Peruvian maca root with no fillers, sweeteners, or additives. It is a practical choice for customers looking for a black maca root powder in a preparation style that is often easier to digest than raw maca.

  • Fair Trade
  • Non-GMO
  • Vegan
  • Origin: traditionally grown near Junín, Peru
  • Gelatinized: processed with heat and pressure to remove most starch content

How Our Gelatinized Black Maca Powder Is Different

Gelatinization is a specialized process in which maca roots are heated and pressurized to break down most of their natural starch content. This changes the preparation style of the powder and is one reason many customers prefer gelatinized maca over raw maca.

  • Easier digestion: many customers choose gelatinized maca because it is often easier on the stomach than raw maca
  • More concentrated by weight: removing most starch content changes the final composition compared to raw maca powder
  • No added gelatin: despite the name, no animal gelatin is used in the process
  • Different nutrient profile: heat processing changes the composition of the final powder compared to raw maca
  • Multiple sizes available: offered in 8 oz, 1 lb, and 2.2 lb (1 kg) foil-lined pouches

Who Often Chooses Gelatinized Black Maca Powder?

Organic Gelatinized Black Maca Powder serving suggestion from The Maca TeamGelatinized black maca powder is often chosen by customers who prefer a preparation style that is easier to digest than raw maca. It can be a practical option for people who are new to maca, for those who do not tolerate raw powdered foods as well, or for customers who want a convenient powder for smoothies, drinks, and recipes.

Black maca is one of the three primary maca colors. Customers who specifically want black maca in a gelatinized powdered form often choose this product for everyday use.

How to Use Gelatinized Black Maca Powder

Gelatinized black maca powder can be mixed into water, juice, milk, smoothies, yogurt, oatmeal, and other everyday recipes. Many people also enjoy adding it to baked goods or breakfast foods. Its preparation style makes it easy to blend into both drinks and foods.

If you enjoy using maca in recipes, visit our collection of maca recipes. If you prefer not to use powder, you may also like our gelatinized black maca capsules.

Gelatinized Black Maca Powder vs. Capsules

Gelatinized black maca powder is generally more versatile and cost-effective per serving than capsules. It can be mixed into drinks and food, which gives you more flexibility in how you use it. Capsules may be more convenient for travel or for customers who prefer a pre-measured serving format. If you do not enjoy the taste of maca, capsules may be the better fit.

There are no known contraindications to taking maca root products. However, individuals who are taking medications for high blood pressure should consult their healthcare provider before use, as maca may have a mild blood pressure–lowering effect in some people.

As with any food or supplement, individuals who are pregnant, nursing, or under medical supervision should consult a qualified healthcare professional before using maca.

    I eat 3 tablespoons almost every morning

    Posted by Fran on 5th Apr 2021

    I eat 3 tablespoons of the gelatinized maca to ensure the macamides are present. Great for concentration. I’ve used it for a couple of weeks and it’s really great to have a source of nutrition like this in hand. I mix it with coco powder and beetroot powder get massive pumps. I feel like it helped with hair growth.

    Gelatinized Black Maca

    Posted by John D on 27th Mar 2021

    I’ve been using black maca for years and love mixing it in coffee or smoothies. My favorite maca smoothie combines 1.5 TBS black maca powder, 1 oz fresh ginger root, 100 grams frozen wild blueberries and half a banana. If you can tolerate the ginger, it seems to amplify the effects of maca root.

    Black gelatinized maca

    Posted by Jorden Salas on 23rd Nov 2020

    Clean energy in the morning, great substitute to caffeine and positively influenced bowels. Bought mainly for libido and didn’t notice any increase whatsoever. I often have low libido so any slight change I would’ve noticed. Was taking 2 grams a day with my protein shake. Enjoyed the taste.

The Maca Team are light years ahead of anyone else selling maca out in the marketplace

I shop around a lot for my supplements and health foods, and I have to say you guys at The Maca Team are light years ahead of anyone else selling maca out in the marketplace.  Thanks for all you do!

By Jim Price, The Green Marketing Guru

I can tell the difference from my usual store-bought brands

Loving the red maca from themacateam. I can tell the difference from my usual store-bought brands. It really tastes so fresh and sweet compared to others. I really love this product. Thanks for sourcing it for us to enjoy

By Michelle Gebbia

The Maca tastes fresh and flavorful, the Kilo bag is a great price

I LOVE Maca Team Maca...this was my first purchase with the Maca Team and I have no need to try any other Maca-producer. The Maca tastes fresh and flavorful, the Kilo bag is a great price, and I feel so much more at ease (Maca is such powerful medicine :) )

By Lizzie Thompson

The Maca Team is a small business run by a family who cares

I take 24 products from five to six times a week to increase my well-being and sensual and sexual delights. ;D The Maca Team’s organic maca is one of them—nine grams in my smoothie, Monday to Saturday. The Maca Team is a small business run by a family who cares about its customers, its Peruvian maca growers, and the environment. It's vital to know the source of everything we put in our mouths. Physical and mental health are precious treasures. :D

Your maca is sent from God, is a blessing and is superb

By Milt Thompson

This product is amazing!

This product is amazing! I have used other cheaper brands of white maca with fairly good results, but after trying the Maca Team maca, I noticed within two weeks all of my menopausal symptoms had completely vanished. Others described a bad taste and smell, but I have tried the black and the red and find them both to be mild tasting. I use a tablespoon in my daily smoothly

By Joy

Their maca varieties are good, as is their customer service.

Maca first came to us by our vitamin supplier. Then we ordered from the Maca Team. Comparison? Think fire-fly, then think mid-day sun. At 76 and 73 years respectively, that is a big deal; and at comparable cost too. We never have we had such speedy delivery and the packaging is the strongest, most protective we've seen, ever, at all ... anywhere. Further, the Mrs. no longer takes hormone supplements. And Mr. scans the morning want ads for steady P/T work.

By George & Sherri

The difference in freshness is night and day, and better tasting

I had been using another brand of maca powder and decided to try The Maca Team's. The difference in freshness is night and day, and better tasting .  I'm 6 foot 250 lbs. and take 4 teaspoons every day w/ my protein shake. Great energy boost and just feel great all day. I can tell a difference when I do not take it. best price that I have found {36oz}. I will be buying more as needed.

By J.D.

The Maca Team brand is very special.

I've tried various maca brands over the last 20 years and The Maca Team brand is very special. There is definitely a difference when it comes to the quality and colors of the maca. This red maca does seem to nourish certain parts of my body while the black maca nourishes something else. I know I've been missing the nutrition these maca provide. I'm 75 years old and bodies wear out, but I'm finding I'm regaining a functioning body. How wonderful is this?!?!!!

By Janis Ihrig

I just wanted to thank you for your excellently constructed website. I am a physician

I just wanted to thank you for your excellently constructed website. I am a physician and I recently started learning about Maca. I get a very good sense of it, and I expect I will try it out myself and possibly be recommending it to patients in the future. If so, your website will be the first place to send people. Thanks again.

By Adam Holt

I feel like I’m dealing with friends, not some company far away

Love the Maca team, In an earlier comment I said I was on the fence about where to buy Maca .Not anymore .You shouldn’t be either. The team has answered any questions I’ve had promptly.  I feel like I’m dealing with friends, not some company far away out for my money only. The Maca is fresh, prices are good, the people are nice.  If you’re on the fence, don’t be, you won’t be sorry.

By Bob

We love this product. I own a store and work with clients holistically. We have recommended maca for years however, this is the highest quality product we have ever carried. I am proud to offer it in my store.

By Mellissa Gage, Infinity and Beyond

Thank you The Maca Team!!!!

I am really happy that I chose the Maca Team, today you can find many distributors selling Maca powder, however quality of the powder is impossible to compare. Moreover, the results after 2 weeks I could feel. Before I was taking maca powder and I did not feel any changes. But since I started taking Maca from Maca Team the changes are incredible. So, I did a test.:) I gave the powder to my partner ... and after 2 weeks he was impressed and told me that he has more energy, feeling happy... Thank you The Maca Team!!!!

By Olga

Thank you again for your kindness and professionalism

I do want to say that I have done quite a bit of research on different companies that offer Maca and The Maca Team definitely is the most reputable.  Thank you again for your kindness and professionalism :)
