Raw Organic Black Maca Powder
Raw Organic Black Maca Overview:

They are committed both to organic farming and to producing the highest quality Maca products available anywhere. We're very happy to support their work.

Buy Only the Best Maca Powder
The Maca Team Quality Difference:
- Getting the most out of adding maca powder to your diet starts with purchasing a high-quality product. There are number of key factors that affect how potent any given raw black maca powder is. In our production we take all of these into account in our efforts to bring you the best raw organic black maca powder available.
- For best results, the roots should be grown on virgin land in and around Junin, Peru. This is the traditional high-altitude land where maca was first discovered in the wild and then cultivated 1000s of years. People have tried to grow maca outside of the very high Andes, but with very little success.
- The roots must be picked at the appropriate time. An expert farmer checks the development of the roots regularly. At about 9 months after planting, they are ready to be harvested.
- Once harvested, the roots must be carefully and fully dried in the mountain sun. Each night they must be covered to prevent the dew from getting them wet again.
- After the roots are dry, it is very important to store them out of humidity to prevent mold. Ours are stored in the dry air of the high mountains in purpose-built warehouses.
- Only when they are ready to be ground into do we bring the roots to the production facility. There the roots are cleansed, ground into a powder and tested 4 times for nutrient content and purity.
- At the point the powder is packaged in opaque foil lined bags and readied to be shipped. Unlike many of our competitors, we order in small batches which means our maca powder almost always gets to our customers within 2-6 months of being packaged.
What are the Pros of Taking Organic Black Maca Root Powder?
As a world leader in high quality Peruvian maca, we offer products in capsules, extracts, powders and even whole chips. Taking organic raw black maca in powder form comes with a number of advantages.
- It is the least expensive options, ounce per ounce and gram per gram. That’s because production and packaging costs are simply lower.
- It is the best way to mix maca into recipes such as smoothies, juices, desserts and more.
- Because the powder is so finely ground, nutrients can be absorbed more easily in the intestine. The fineness of the powder means more surface area of the maca is exposed to your digestive tract and therefore more nutrients can be absorbed.
What are the Cons of Taking Organic Black Maca Powder?
There are also a few disadvantages associated with taking raw black maca powder.
- Black maca powder is a bit less convenient to take with you on the go than black maca capsules or black maca extract.
- You must be careful to measure the exact amount that you want to take.
- The taste can be overwhelming for some.
- Raw black maca powder can upset your stomach if you have difficulty digesting starch content. If that's the case try a gelatnized black maca product instead.
Who is Black Maca Powder Best for?
- Raw black maca is the preferred maca of men and women looking for energy, stamina and strength
- It is best for people with stronger digestive systems and who do not have intolerance to starch. If you have issues digesting starches, you should try gelatinized black maca powder instead.
How long does Organic Raw Black Maca last when stored?
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)
How should I take Raw Organic Black Maca Powder?
Black maca is classified as a food rather than a supplement or herb. There are no known contraindications or side effects related to taking it. Daily dosage recommendations range from 3 -9 grams (1-3 teaspoons) for a healthy individual weighing about 160 lbs. Maca may be taken with water, juices or milks. It also may be mixed with food.

Amazing!
I had been going back and forth on ordering maca before I finally decided to give it a try. I am glad I did as it has far surpassed my expectations. I am already planning on ordering more so I can stock up as well as ordering some red maca for my wife. I now swear by maca and believe The Maca Team truly has the best out there. Their customer service is top notch as well.

Great Product
I've definitely noticed differences while taking this product on a daily basis! (Black Maca Root Powder)

awesome product
I tried other brand maca powders before and I thought I will never take it again because of side effects. But when I tried your raw maca (black) powder I changed my mind. I mix it with rice or almond milk and drink it in the morning before breakfast. It gives me lots of energy and other health benefits. Im about to order more!

Black Maca
I purchased a 1 lb bag of the raw black maca and the taste was absolutely delicious. I've tried other maca products that didn't have a good taste, but the potency and taste of your black maca is bar none.

Fresh and Pure
I take the powder form of this maca daily at 1-2 tablespoons. I take it to support my thyroid and hormones. Who doesn't need adrenal and thyroid support these days?! I reviewed the red maca and ditto all of what I said in that one for the black maca. I SO APPRECIATE TMT for NOT selling out to the chinese, for keeping it pure and as clean and cleanly sourced that way as possible! As a further note, TMT puts a DO NOT IRRADIATED THIS PACKAGE bright orange sticker on the shipment which I also super am grateful for. Because for me who has been diagnosed with Biotoxic Illness ( and subsequently healed from it) and for some of my clients who are Multiple Chemically Sensitive, it's those little things that make a HUGE difference in quality of life! Thank you TMT for taking all those little care actions that help all of us on the path to a better and healthier state of being well!!

I first bought the red maca and then tried the black. My husband and I both take it in the morning mixed in a blender with plain yogurt and frozen raspberries or blueberries. Improves stamina, energy and concentration. Love the product and will continue purchasing it.
