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.

Suggested Use
Raw red maca powder is commonly used as a food. Many people begin with 3 grams daily (about 1 teaspoon) and gradually increase to 9 grams daily (about 3 teaspoons) based on preference and tolerance.

It does work!
I'm finishing my second 1Kg bag of the RED. I'm a 67 year old male and purchased based on reviews as my blood pressure was getting uncomfortably high. I can't say it does anything significant about the BP, maybe levelled off a bit. After one full month, I stopped taking it for a break, and that's when I really noticed the negative difference. It's like somebody took the air out of the tires. I had to basically drag my butt around, no energy nor will power. The positives are: it helps me sleep better, trips to the bathroom in the night are reduced drastically. Good energy even in those nights with little sleep due to outside factors. After many years I have stopped taking Meta Mucil on a daily basis, a welcome side benefit. I also purchase a 1lb. each of Black and of Premium to try out. Tried both for a couple of weeks. As I take these in the morning with just water, I found the Premium way too strong in flavour almost to the point of being gaging. The Black is more pleasant and I'm taking 1 tsp of both the Red and Black daily, I find it to be a nice combo. On a side note, I'm Canadian and the first two packages were mailed in an bubble envelope via USPS. No issues with the Canadian post office. The third one recently received (took advantage of the sale) was sent in a box via Post Express and I was charged for GST & Handling. So the savings went to the government. As this is classified as food, I don't believe it's subject to the gov taxes. Perhaps the Maca team can look at international labelling. Any way I'm sold, now I just have to convince my wife to take some.

Amazing!
Was very effective for supporting overall vitality and helping with changes in desire. I bought this for my girlfriend because her sex drive was all but gone after starting a new routine. She started taking 9 grams a day and after about 7–10 days the results were quite noticeable! This has helped support a return in her natural desire so far and it's been about 2 months that she's been on it. She typically takes the 9 grams of maca along with 25mg of DHEA 5–6 days a week, and then takes a day or two off to insure that the tolerance doesn't because a problem. So far so good. The only thing she doesn't care for is the taste of the powder, I think that is just a personal thing though, because I tried some as well and it tasted quite fine to me as far as supplements go.

Red Maca Powder
I am putting 1 tsp of Maca in my morning blended coffee, I am getting used to the new taste, but I cannot get the Maca to completely disolve in the blender. I add a little water to the cup & drink what remains in my cup.
