Description
Raw Red Maca Root Powder, Certified Organic, Fair Trade, Non-GMO, Vegan and Raw
What Is Raw Red Maca Powder?
Raw red maca powder is made from dried red maca roots (Lepidium meyenii) grown in the high Andes of Peru. The roots are carefully dried and milled at low temperatures to preserve their natural composition. Red maca is one of the three major maca colors and is widely used as a traditional food ingredient in smoothies, drinks, and recipes. To learn more about this variety, see our red maca guide.
Organic Raw Red Maca Powder Overview
Our organic raw red maca powder is made from 100% red maca roots grown and processed by an organic farming cooperative in and around Junín, Peru. We work only with producers who manage their land locally and are committed to traditional agriculture, organic growing practices, and careful handling from harvest through processing.
This raw red maca powder contains only pure red Peruvian maca root with no fillers, sweeteners, or additives. It is a popular choice for customers looking for a flavorful, versatile red maca root powder with a naturally slightly sweeter taste than many other maca powders.

Why Choose Raw Red Maca Powder?
Raw red maca powder is valued for its traditional use, naturally occurring nutrients, and easy culinary versatility. It contains carbohydrates, fiber, plant protein, amino acids, fatty acids, minerals, and distinctive maca compounds such as macamides and macaenes. Many people add organic red maca powder to smoothies, drinks, breakfast foods, and other recipes as part of a balanced daily diet.
Because red maca has a naturally milder, slightly sweeter taste, it is often chosen by customers who want a raw maca powder that blends well into everyday foods and beverages.
What Makes This Red Maca Different?
This product contains only pure raw red maca root powder from Peru. It is sourced from an organic farming cooperative, dried carefully at low temperatures, and packed without unnecessary ingredients. The result is a simple, traditional maca food in raw powdered form.
Red maca is one of the three major maca colors and has a nutritional profile similar to yellow and black maca. Many customers choose it for its flavor and its flexibility in smoothies, cereals, and recipes. To learn more, visit our guides on red maca and maca powder.
How to Use Raw Red Maca Powder
You can use raw red maca powder in several simple ways. Many people mix their daily serving into water, milk, or a plant-based beverage of choice. It also works well in smoothies, oatmeal, yogurt, and other everyday recipes. For more ideas, visit our collection of maca recipes.
If you enjoy smoothies, raw red maca powder pairs especially well with fruit-based recipes such as banana, strawberry, cacao, or berry blends. Its slightly sweeter taste makes it easy to incorporate into breakfast drinks and simple homemade recipes.
Raw maca retains its natural starches, which some customers specifically prefer. If you would rather use a maca product that has been traditionally heated for a different preparation style, see our gelatinized red maca. Another option is a red maca extract for customers looking for a more concentrated format.

Red Maca powder does exactly what it claims
I LOVE this product. My energy level is consistently higher, even with a new, more intense workout schedule, I am also getting more out of my workouts while my appetite is under control. My body just feels better EVERYDAY. After several years of perio-menopause I feel like myself again. The red maca has a sweeter taste that I like, though I haven;t try the other types. My only negative comment is that the second shipment of powder I received is leaving small clumps at the bottom of the glass, even after mixing it in a protein powder shaker. I have to actually strain it before I drink it. The first shipment of maca powder I received did not have this issue. I understand that there can be great variances in product quality, as it is essentially a plant product,

First Time Trying
I would have to say that I first got the maca because I want a bigger butt, but the other benefits, like energy, hormones balancing, muscle gainer, etc. I would have to say after 2 weeks of taking 1 teaspoon, I can tell a different in my mental focus, energy and hormones. I was put on birth control for my hormones and now since I have added this my cycles are much less painful and I can tell my hormones are way more balanced. As far as the curvy figure I still think it is a little too soon tell but I should be able to tell a different in bottom half area in the next month as I will have finished my 12 week workout program that focuses on developing the bottom half. My mom also took some as well as had increased energy which also helped her a great deal.

Bought for hormones, but memory advantage
HI, 62 year old woman, purchased to "balance hormones"? if that is at all possible, yet noticed my memory better, especially when trying to recall something eluding me, the answer would just pop up in my mind. I really noticed a difference. However, only 3 stars because the powder, even just 1teaspoon a day, was giving me severe stomach aches. So I have stopped taking it. Was using in a bit of cold coffee, often with food, did not matter, the stomach would become upset.

Love this product
I use this blended with organic almond milk as a preworkout drink and as my last “meal” prior to bed. I love the taste and the fullness I feel after drinking. I did not have digestive issues with this product and prefer the taste of this over the gelatinized version which reminds me of over roasted coffee.

I'm Hooked
I started taking a combination of red and black raw maca powder 3 weeks ago. I'm a 63 year old male. My original reason for trying it was to balance my hormones (I have hypothyroidism). The thing that was most striking was the boost of energy and endurance during workouts. It has been incredible, especially the endurance. I am easily able to push my weight training and cardio far further than ever before. I've increased my weights by 25% over 3 weeks time. I am so pleased with the quality of the maca products. Thank you for all that you do. I'm a loyal customer now.
