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 product Rocks
I developed severe menopause symptoms aboutvthree years ago. I tried other products, including more expensive remedies. None of them worked. I read an email about adding NACA to a smoothie for weightloss. I bought red NACA and have been using it since! No morechot flashes, sleeplessness, night sweats, or other troublesome symptoms. I like that it is natural and hormone free. Works wonderfully. Thanks Maca Team!

It may just be because this is the first time I am using Red Maca, but the effect has been fabulous! Energy is stable. urination less frequent, and overall just feeling good. The price was great, the packaging was great and the quality is great! What more can one say?

Red Maca
Although I go to Peru yearly, and always buy maca in bulk in the Central Market in Cusco, I had never before been aware of Red Maca. After I returned from my most recent journey, I realized that the kilo of maca that I had bought in Cusco seemed stale. So, I looked into The Maca Team's products, and ordered their Red Maca. I have found it to indeed be good for the prostate, as well as tasting nice and fresh, the way that maca is supposed to taste. It's packaging is excellent, and it arrived very promptly and carefully.

Works for your body but tastes horrible
I am generally someone that for the sake of health I will tolerate the not so pleasant flavor of foods but this one is unbearable for me and unfortunately I followed the company's suggestion to get the 1KG bag but now it's going to waste. I have been trying for two weeks to find different ways to tolerate it. I've used the cinnamon as they suggested, tried it with juice, almond milk, etc etc but still nothing. It doesn't have a mild nutty taste to me, it almost has a peppery taste and I think the worst part is that it doesn't really seem to dissolve so towards the end of drinking I have a lot of grainy product left over. It helped with my hormones in the short time, but I really cannot handle this product at all. I wish I had followed my mind and taken a smaller bag so I would have such a huge waste of money and product :(

Maca fan
Red Raw Maca was my first Maca experience and I felt the difference in my body in a couple of days. I measure the effectiveness of Maca from my palm sweating more than usual. I am 5'3" and weighs about 115 lbs and I was taking probably close to 30 g per day when I started. Now I've read this website and am taking about 7g per day. It smells like something burnt but it mix well with the cocoa powder in my morning smoothies.

It's ok but...
To be honest I think the taste gets me more then anything! It taste like I'm drinking dirt! I can't seem to get it to mix in with my water! I don't know if I've been drinking it long enough to really tell a difference so it's the taste that is reason behind my 3 star rating
