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. Maca may be mixed with water, juice, milk, smoothies, or food. For more detailed guidance, visit our complete serving guidelines.

You got the love the Maca from the Maca Team
I got introduced to Maca a few years back but a tiny bottle at a local health food store and did like it. Then I found the website from the Maca team and call them great customer service fast service and I felt honesty with what they told me. I started on the red organic raw Maca. Put it in our smoothie that I also gave to my husband. I am back working out with weights in the gym early morning (5.30am) I was due for a new large back of my Organic Raw Maca and decided to ask regarding the black Maca. I ended up ordering 1 bag of the organic Raw Black Maca and 1 bag organic Raw Red Maca. We really like the black Maca along with the red. I use one teaspoon of black maca along with my organic wheatgrass powder in Manitou mineral water to work out. Then I have a smoothie after workout with 1 teaspoon of the black Maca and my husband has a smoothie with a black Maca for his breakfast. I am a plant food eater and use the red Maca in my bean dips, hummus dips and veggie/ chili dips. It is so so good. The black maca I use in my coconut milk frozen desserts my avocado frozen desserts and almond banana soft serve ice cream. Actually like the black Maca for that a bit better I must say. Hope you get adventurous with the Maca, I have not tried the yellow marker yet.

Muy buena
La compro desde España, pues ahora no encuentro maca roja y esta es de la mejor calidad que hay. El único problema es que me sale muy caro por los portes. Espero que en un futuro sea más barato

Definitely Different
I've tried various maca brands over the last 20 years and The Maca Team brand is very special. There is definitely a difference when it comes to the quality and colors of the maca. This red maca does seem to nourish certain parts of my body while the black maca nourishes something else. I know I've been missing the nutrition these maca provide. I'm 75 years old and bodies wear out, but I'm finding I'm regaining a functioning body. How wonderful is this?!?!!!

Not for everyone
I decided to try this product for hair loss. I started to lose my hair during perimenopause, it has gradually worsened over the years. I thought that balancing my hormones would help. I started taking this in hopes of helping with this issue. Instead of it helping it made the issue worse. I have had twice the hair loss. I stopped taking it but the hair loss remains excessive, i am hoping that with time it will at least return to the level it was prior to taking this product.I also have a history of endometriosis and the pain I previously experienced started to return while on this product. I am sure it is a great product for some people but it didn't help me.

Bought it because I'm diabetic
I had a friend suggest this for me since I'm diabetic. He did a lot of research & found it had a lot of great benefits for diabetics. I mix it into my smoothies in the morning & love the energy & benefits it gives me. Thank you.
