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.

This was a true miracle for me!
I was looking for energy and I got so much more. I am so happy! I've been taking this for three months now and my life has changed. My monthly cycle was out of control, my bathroom looked like a crime scene every month! I was losing so much blood that I was low on iron. I didn't know what to do, all I thought about was to start moving more and maybe that would help. I ordered this hoping for energy and I do have more energy but the bonus is my regular monthly cycle. I'm back to normal now. I had been suffering for two years or more, I can't thank you enough. :)

Maca Red
This is the first time I have tried the red maca and I am glad I did. I can tell the first week the difference it makes with my day to day routine. I don't sleep much but this helps me get throughout my day without winding down in the afternoon. I use it in everything I find it will taste good in, which is a-lot. I recommend this to all my friends and family and when they try it, they thank me for it. For those who don't I usually give them samples to try and most after trying notice the difference in their day to day lives and then order their own. THis is a great product and I plan to use it for a long time.....

Be careful which type you purchase...no free return shipping
I was doing an online, liver reset program with Izabella Wentz, PharmD for folks with Hoshimoto's Thyroiditis. She recommended The Maca Team for high quality maca. I took the company's online quiz, and ended up with Red Maca before reading further Dr. Wentz only recommends the lightest color maca for folks with Hoshimoto's. Unfortunately, there are no free returns, and It would have cost me $12 to ship the 1 lb. bag back,.After reading up on the website some more, I decided to use it for my husband. I add it to his smoothies for prostate health. He just had shoulder surgery, so I thought it might be helpful with him needing to get up to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night. I think it just may be working, thought it's only been a week or so. I may order the gelatinized light color maca at a later date.

Red Maca x 2 review
I purchased for health & prostate. Although expensive I like the product, it seems to help. The price forced me into buying 2 items to qualify for free ship. Would like to see larger bulk buying options to save even more.

Heaven Sent!
Oh my stars! this stuff is amazing!! Thank the Lord for giving us this natural product to help us in our terrible menopause woes. SO I stumbled upon maca powder while searching for something on the internet to help with my hormone imbalance. Apparently one can develop new or worsening allergies when going through menopause. WELL I developed new allergies to ANYTHING artificial. Yep, no preservatives , chemicals... if it's not real food I can't have it. I was looking for something to regulate my hormones to maybe help with the severity of the reaction i get from eating something with an emulsifier, or "to preserve freshness" Because it's really bad. AND I was literally getting 60 hot flashed a day. I timed it. Pretty ridiculous I bought the red maca powder, and little by little, my hot flashed were less frequent and didn't last as long and weren't as bad. Now they are totally GONE!! I can't believe it! I also sleep way better, which i didn't even realize that I wasn't sleeping good until i WAS sleeping good. And I also didn't realize how um.. dry I became 'down there' until i wasn't! Wow! I have referred so many people to this stuff because of what it does for me. It works for them to, Yay! And it's full of good vitamins and minerals so It's doubly good for you! I'm on my 2nd large bag, and I use the drops as well. I take it 3 times per day. ( usually) Drops in the AM, powder in afternoon, drops in the PM. Love the drops, they are good, pretty sweet, and easy to take. I found that once all my symptoms are gone i can get by with a larger scoop, like a heaping teaspoon in my protein shake once a day, but you gotta start slow and work up to that. It didn't seem to help with the allergy thing i'll have to wait that one out. But who cares, it took my hot flashes away completely, fixed the dryness AND I sleep way better!! Awesome sauce! I am a lifetime user Thank you !!!
