Description

Gelatinized Premium Red Maca Root Powder, Certified Organic, Fair Trade, Non-GMO and Vegan

OverviewGelatinized premium red maca powder from The Maca Team

Our gelatinized premium red maca powder is made from 100% red maca roots which are carefully and consciously grown, processed and handled. The roots 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.

Premium Gelatinized Red Maca Root Powder

There are two important considerations to understand about what makes this product unique.

First, what makes this maca “premium” is the special way in which it is processed. Instead of being sundried, maca roots are fresh processed immediately after harvest. After coming out of the ground they are cleaned in a citrus solution, ground into a pulp and low temperature dried. This special processing leaves more glucosinolates in the final product. Glucosinolates are nutrients that have been associated with anti-cancer properties.

Second, this maca powder is gelatinized. Gelatinization is a process in which maca roots are heated to high temperatures (160F / 70C). The heat causes the starch molecules in maca to irreversibly dissolve and the result is a powder that has had some of its nutrients compromised but is easier to digest than raw maca. It’s important to note that nothing is added to maca during the gelatinization process.

Gelatinized Premium Red Maca:

  • Comes from a modern approach to processing maca developed in the past 25 years

  • Is fresh processed - maca roots are dried in dehydrators immediately after harvest
  • Has higher glucosinolate content - nutrients which may help prevent cancer
  • Is much stronger tasting - has a more noticeable maca flavor with more spiciness
  • Is limited in supply since it must be produced from fresh roots during annual harvest (June-August)

Advantages of Taking Premium Gelatinized Red Maca Powderpremium gelatinized red maca powder

This product has a few advantages. First, since it’s gelatinized it is easier to digest than raw premium red maca powder. Second, since glucosinolate content is maximized through premium processing techniques, this product is a bit stronger in terms of anti-cancer properties. Finally, other nutrients are concentrated during processing and some people find that they take a bit less of our premium products as compared to our standard or sun-dried ones.

Disadvantages of Taking Premium Gelatinized Red Maca Powder

The main disadvantages to using this product over a standard gelatinized red maca powder are that nutrients such as vitamin C and enzymes are destroyed during the heating process and that this type of maca is much stronger tasting. While some people do enjoy the taste, others find that it is a bit too spicy or earthy for their liking. Note that we also offer this product in capsule form if you wish to avoid the taste.

Recommended For:

Red Maca powder has been shown, under phytonutrient analysis, to be higher in certain compounds that support the body in antioxidant and antitumoral activity. We recommend it:

  • For men looking to use maca for prostate health support
  • For women's fertility and libido (We recommend black maca for male fertility)
  • For bone density support - most important for women and children
  • For everyone wanting to experience the highest antioxidant and nutrient levels of all maca powders

Storage and Shelf Life

Maca keeps well for up to 24 months provided that it is stored in a sealed bag out of direct sunlight and at below 70% humidity. (More storage and use tips)

Suggested Use

Safety

Maca root is classified as a food and is generally recognized as safe for consumption. It has been used traditionally for centuries as a natural food source in the Andes.

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.

Maca naturally contains iodine, which is important to note for those who are sensitive to iodine or have thyroid conditions requiring restricted iodine intake.

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

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Premium Gelatinized Red Maca Powder?
This product is made from 100% red maca roots which have undergone a gelatinization process (pre-cooked to remove starch) to make them easier to digest and more bio-available. It is certified organic, Fair Trade, GMO-free, vegan, and packed in a resealable premium bag.

How is “premium” different from standard gelatinized maca?
“Premium” denotes higher-grade roots, faster fresh processing, and a standardized nutrient profile (including glucosinolate levels above 1 %). These qualities result in a more potent final powder, though with a stronger flavor compared with standard variants.

Who is this product best for?
It’s ideal for individuals who want the benefits of red maca (hormonal support, stamina, mood) and prefer a ready-to-mix powder rather than capsules — especially if they tolerate maca well and want a more powerful version.

How much powder should I take daily?
A guideline is 1–3 teaspoons (≈3–9 g) daily. Start at the lower end and increase based on your response. It’s best to mix it into smoothies, yogurt or juice.

How soon might I notice benefits?
Many users report increased energy, clearer mood or improved stamina within 2–4 weeks of consistent daily use. More advanced effects (hormone balance, endurance) may appear after 4–8 weeks.

Is gelatinized red maca easy to digest?
Yes—because the starch content has been removed by the gelatinization process, this form of red maca is generally easier on the stomach and more suitable for those with digestive sensitivity than raw maca.

    Marvelous Organic Premium Gelatinized Red Maca

    Posted by Grandtiger on 22nd Sep 2021

    This maca tastes really good, a little chocolaty, very nice stirred into a glass of whole milk or sprinkled on cereal. I’ve been taking one teaspoon (5cc) per day for nearly four years and the benefits are spectacular! I cannot speak for men with ED because the only form of ED I have ever known first hand is Erectile Delight. Not to brag, but to tell how marvelous this maca is, since I started taking it my libido continues ramping up. I’m 74 and can’t even begin to describe how fantastic this is. Nothing else iI’m taking is new, so it has to be the maca. Absolutely marvelous.

    Red Gelatinized Maca

    Posted by Kathy Gibbons on 11th Jul 2021

    I haven’t used this product for very long. I had to back off from taking 3 Tbsp. to 1 & now can start working up to 2 Tbsp. I thought my symptoms were severe enough to jump to the top but it doesn’t work that way. I had a lot of stomach upset causing gas so I don’t recommend doing that. Problem solved once I lowered the dose.

    Red Maca Root

    Posted by Stephany on 27th Dec 2020

    I am happy with it so far. It has given me energy and suppressed my appetite some. I am 49 and suffering from awful peri-menopause. I am hoping I will feel a real difference after a couple of months. I have been mixing it in smoothies mostly and also made some pancakes with it. It takes better than past Maca Powders I have tried. I recommend it.
