Description
Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca Root Powder, Certified Organic, Fair Trade, Non-GMO, Vegan and Gluten Free
What Is Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca Powder?
Gelatinized tri-color maca powder is made from a traditional blend of the three primary maca root colors: yellow, red, and black (Lepidium meyenii). For most of maca’s long history of cultivation in the Andes, the roots were consumed together rather than separated by color.
This product follows that traditional approach by combining approximately 40% yellow, 30% red, and 30% black maca roots. The roots are then gelatinized — a preparation process that reduces starch content and produces a powder many people find easier to digest.
Overview 
Our gelatinized tri-color maca powder is produced from organically grown maca roots cultivated near Junín, Peru — the traditional growing region of maca. These roots are harvested by an organic farming cooperative that manages the land locally using long-standing agricultural practices.
The final powder contains only pure Peruvian maca root with no fillers, additives, or preservatives.

What Is Gelatinization?
Gelatinization is a preparation method used to reduce the natural starch content of maca root. During this process, maca roots are briefly heated under controlled conditions. The heat causes the starch molecules to break down and dissolve.
The result is a maca powder that many people find easier to incorporate into their diet compared with raw maca.
Despite the name, no gelatin is used during this process. Nothing is added to the maca roots, and the finished product remains completely plant-based.
Characteristics of Gelatinized Maca
- Starch content is largely removed during processing
- The powder is commonly considered easier to digest than raw maca
- Gelatinized maca has a more concentrated flavor than raw maca

Who Typically Chooses Tri-Color Maca?
Tri-color maca is a popular choice for people who want to experience the traditional combination of maca root colors in a single product.
Because the roots are blended rather than separated by color, tri-color maca powders are also typically more economical than single-color varieties.
How To Use Gelatinized Maca Powder
The simplest way to use maca powder is to mix it into a beverage of your choice. Many people add it to smoothies, plant-based milks, yogurt, or breakfast foods such as oatmeal.

I've been having 4-6 tbsp of Tri Color Maca a day for the last month or more. It took about two weeks before I started to notice anything, but now I have a new level of sustained energy that I haven't had in years (I'm 72). Get it!

Tri-color gelatinized Maca powder
My husband and I love this Maca. Team Maca is a wonderful company to associate with. They are knowledgeable , friendly, supportive, and will help you customize your purchase to meet your goals. The product itself is delicious and deeply satisfying . You will sense a calmness as well as real energy to assist you in daily life. I even feel I am breathing more deeply. I tend to breathe shallow and with tight jaw , but the Maca has helped me deal with stress mindfully and effectively ??

Loving It!
This is my second time ordering from The Maca Team and I’ve been very satisfied with the tri-blend maca. I blend it in my smoothies so I can’t taste it, but I do love the smell. I’ve noticed that my hormones are more balanced - I’m less moody when I’m PMSing, and my libido is at a healthy level. I also think that the price is very reasonable.
