Gelatinized Yellow Maca Root Powder, Certified Organic, Fair Trade, GMO-Free, Vegan and Gluten Free
Our gelatinized yellow 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. Gelatinized Yellow Maca is made from Yellow Maca roots, which make up about 60% off the annual harvest in Peru. These roots are pre-cooked to remove starch content and ease digestion. It takes about 4 kg of Raw Maca roots to produce 1 Kg of Gelatinized Maca powder, making it more concentrated than Raw 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
- Some nutrients including active metabolites are activated and amplified due to the heat and pressure used in processing gelatinized maca
- Consumed Daily For Over 2000 Years To Boost Concentration, Energy, Promote Fertility, and More
Best Used For:
Our gelatinized yellow maca powder is best for anyone with a sensitive stomach. About 5% of people have minor stomach irritability, gas or bloating when using raw maca products. Gelatinized maca does not produce this effect at all. It undergoes a process of high heat and pressure to remove the starch content from the powdered root. This makes the final product easier to digest. Please note that results may vary from person to person.

Been taking maca for several years and would usually buy it from Whole Foods or other online sources. But I started buying from Maca Team about a year ago and so far it seems like a good quality company. Website looks nice, products come in good packaging with informative brochures, organic products, farming practices are of good quality which is very important in this day and age. I also like the fact that they offer several types of maca, different preparation methods, different bag sizes and in capsules. Maca has a variety of benefits, but in general I can definitely feel an increase in energy levels, more body strength and overall feeling of calmness and balance. I have been using yellow gelatinized maca because it feels easier on digestive system.

This is the first time using this product. It has a malt-like scent and flavor. We are using it in smoothies with almond milk, plain yogurt, spinach, almond butter, and banana and so far are enjoying it very much. The product itself is of excellent quality. We haven't noticed any changes in our health as of yet; however, we are hopeful that this will change and we will see positive health benefits. We are using the gelatinized yellow maca to get our bodies used to it before trying the Premium Maca Powder.
