Raw Sundried Red Maca Root Powder, Certified Organic, Fair Trade, Non-GMO, Vegan and Raw
Our Raw Red 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 the highest quality Maca products available anywhere. We're very happy to support their work.
Details:
- Red maca is highest in all major phytonutrients and is considered to be the best of all Maca powders for hormone balance, female libido and fertility boost, natural energy boosting and male prostate
- Red Maca root is the rarest color of Maca and incredibly vital. It is the highest growing crop in the world (above 14000 feet) and it thrives in extremes of cold, wind and sunlight
- Red Maca is one of the most nutrient dense foods known. It is high in carbohydrates (59%), bio-available protein (10.2%), fiber (8.5%) and calcium, magnesium, phosphorus and iron. Red Maca also contains 17 amino acids, 23 free fatty acids and significant amounts of niacin and vitamins B1, B2 and C
- Red Maca contains 4 unique nutrients called macaenes and macamides that support optimal hormone balance, vitality and strength in both men and women. It is also an adaptogenic food (like ginseng) that has been shown to significantly raise life force energy and provide a natural energy boost
- 2.2 lb foil lined, double sealed, food grade pouch contains 111 individual servings at 3 t (9g) each. That is enough to last one person nearly 4 months

I have been taking the red maca root powder daily for years. There have been times when I stopped taking it for a few months but I went back on because I get very bad vaginal dryness/soreness/itching if I do not take it. So it is doing something very good for my female hormones and I can't be without it. I am now 53 years old and going through menopause. I take 1 Tbsp every morning in my tea. After all these years of benefitting from it I thought I should write a review and say a big thank you to the Maca Team for such a superior product that I wouldn't be without.

We love this product. I seriously notice the balance in my hormones.

I have been drinking the red Maca powder for about a month and I think it’s working! I definitely feel more awake than usual and a little happier. I still think it’s not been long enough for me to fully review this product as I would like to go another couple months before my final judgment
-
We are very satisfied with your product and use it in protein shakes every day.
