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.

Review
I have been taking the Maca powder 3t a day for about a month. I have been weaning myself off of the HRT pills I have been taking for about 6 years. I am still having hot flashes so I don't know if I should increase the amount of Maca I am taking or if I should wait a while longer to see if the flashing gets less frequent.

Gotta Have It!
Lov your M pwd. I absolutely eat at least 1Tablesp./day, and put several in my raw bar recipes,oatmeal,smoothies,anything I can think of. Its supposed to be good for hormones, &since I have thyroid problems I take daily.

Thank you for selling in bulk, since no one comes close to your price per oz. It is absolutely delicious,which is what unhealthy eaters don't realize about healthy superfoods!!! As soon as I'm running low, I will be ordering again from your company. Thank you! Sincerely,Rhonda

No stomach problems
i praise and thank God, I ordered the raw Red Maca powder and then read reviews that one should never injest raw Maca. I think next time I want to choose the cooked kind, but, I thank God, I have not had stomach problems with this. I have been taking about a tablespoon a day. I started taking it in the Holy Month of Ramadan, so I have been fasting in the day, all the nights that I have started taking it. I feel very good, but a little weak, however, I have been fasting, without any food or drink from dawn to sunset for 25 days now. I am almost finished with the bag of Red Maca, and plan to buy the gelatinized red kind next time from you. I want to see how I feel taking the gelatinized Red Maca while not fasting. I wish you well.

Great product!
I've ordered other maca powders before and they often lack color and scent...not this stuff! I've been using this daily for about a month now and I can definitely feel a difference in my energy levels. I was breaking out under my neck and chin- which according to Chinese medicine relates to hormonal imbalance- but since using the red maca that has cleared up without any topical products. I often get maca powder from my peruvian relatives when they visit, but since discovering this product I don't have to wait for them to visit and it seems fresher than what they bring me sometimes! Unfortunately, my second order burst in the shipping package during shipping but all it took was one email to the maca team and they shipped a new one immediately! Amazing customer service!
