Gelatinized Sundried Red Maca Root Powder, Certified Organic, Fair Trade, Non-GMO and Vegan
Our Gelatinized Red Maca Root Powder is carefully and consciously grown, processed and handled. It comes from an organic farming cooperative in and around Junin, Peru. We work only with producers who own and manage their lands at a local grass roots level. The cooperative of farmers is committed both to organic farming and to producing only the highest quality Maca products
Details:
- Gelatinized Maca is the easiest Maca to digest and best for anyone with a sensitive stomach
- A special process heats the roots is to remove the starch content, making Gelatinized Maca more concentrated than Raw Maca (you need to take less)
- Some nutrients including active metabolites are activated and amplified due to the heat and pressure used in making Gelatinized Maca

In the winter of 2013 I was taking maca from this seller to ward off seasonal sadness and it seemed to work; I didn't get really sad that year. Here in 2020 I've been worried about the grim prospects of this winter. Even though it's still only fall, I went ahead and bought more for the first time since 2013. I'm an extremely skeptical person so I don't think the placebo effect even works on me, but within days I stopped being as mopey and despondent. More importantly, I was able to break out of the bad thought patterns I'd been stuck in. Either this stuff really works for me or it's a welcome coincidence! I mostly throw it in the blender with fruit. It's also fine mixed into oatmeal or peanut butter. It's not even bad just stirred into a glass of water or juice (but neither would I describe it as pleasurable). Thanks to the purveyors of this fine powdered vegetable!

I use this every morning in my breakfast smoothie and I love the taste and after using 3tsp every day for 3 weeks, I am feeling so much better mentally and physically.

I started Red Maca Root in August. Started with 4 caps, then 8 caps, then 12 caps. I have noticed the severity of hot flashes has diminished & the flashes do not last as long. I started the powder form & now take 3 teaspoons a day. I am also sleeping better at night because I haven't had to wake up, multiple times, drenched in sweat. Also not as anxious & moody. I will continue taking the Red Maca Root!

I have been using this product for 6 months.
I am 61 year old female very active this product helps me through the day.

I was very skeptical of maca at first but after several months of consistent use I have had a definite boost in libido. I will continue to use this product.
-
I purchased this product because I developed a severe reaction to raw maca after using for a few weeks. It had completely eliminated my hot flashes though so I wanted to keep trying. I still am having a slight reaction to the gelatinized but I have learned to time it in my day for better results. I believe the hot flashes are lessening again. Fingers crossed!

I can definitely tell a difference in my stamina. I wake up easier and am in a consistently better mood
-
This is my second bag in 3 months. I sleep better and plenty of energy.

Superior product. Works for both the Mr. and Mrs. (and service far beyond the expected).
